Kitchen Flooring: Best Options

The kitchen is the heart of our homes. So why not choose a floor that is stylish as well as practical. Solid Wood flooring has always been a popular choice in kitchens. But there are other options to explore. So, let's take a look!

Solid Wood

Solid wood is one of the most luxurious and beautiful types of flooring out there. Not only does it look stunning in your home, but it's also durable, unique and gets better with age. However, it's not the number one floor if you come from an accident-prone household. Solid wood isn't the greatest floor when it comes in contact with water. I the floor is not maintained properly; it can cause the wood to warp. But, engineered wood flooring is a fabulous alternative if you want to imitate the beauty of natural wood. It's a lot more practical and can withhold spillages that won't ruin your floor. Not to mention, it's highly durable and can withhold scratches too!

Vinyl

If you want to save money on your flooring, then vinyl is the one for you. It's a sustainable choice of flooring that has many benefits. It's durable, water and scratch-proof resistant. Perfect for those who have a busy family home! Vinyl can also imitate natural wood at a cheaper price. If you've already fallen in love with a solid wood floor but can't afford it, look into vinyl options! You won't regret it.

Marble

Marble is by far one of the most luxurious materials out there. Its unique veins and colours look effortlessly stunning on floors and kitchen worktops. Marble is on the expensive side when it comes to natural materials. It's also incredibly difficult to replace if it breaks which will leave a hole in your pocket! It can become very slippery once polished too. Not suitable for homes with young children.

Are you thinking about changing up your floor?

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
