We have stone floors , good for summer , thus in winter i have several
carpets in summer i roll most up ... mirjam When we first moved into this house a year and a half ago I hated that it was all hardwood. It felt so un-homey. But when I saw how fun and easy it is to clean hardwood I fell in love. I don't know if I'll ever want carpet again! Pamjam norabalcer wrote: Shel, You made my day too. I had hardwood floors thoughtout the house and love my swiffer, now I have a use for the cotton yarn, thanks so much for the pattern. Hugs, Nora |

We have stone floors , good for summer , thus in winter i have several carpets in summer i roll most up ... mirjam I would love to get rid of the carpet in the living room and bedroom, and eventually I will. Both DH & I have many allergies, and AFAIC - carpets are just dust and dirt catchers - especially wall to wall. At least with an area rug you can take it outside and beat it, or easily get rid of it.

Stone floors? I'm trying to imagine that. Like in a castle? That's
neat. Now I want stone floors! How do you clean them? Can you mop them? Aren't the stone floors hard on your feet? Can I come to your house and look at your floors? ![]() Pamjam Mirjam Bruck-Cohen wrote: We have stone floors , good for summer , thus in winter i have several carpets in summer i roll most up ... mirjam When we first moved into this house a year and a half ago I hated that it was all hardwood.

Shaelagh , 3 of the carpets are old , 1 we got when married , from My
Husband Grandparents, 2 are like a 100 + years old. They are a bit worn but do their jobs, They are easy to shake , vacum and every several years go to the cleaners , I also clean them with Viniger. In other parts of the house i have rag rugs , Home mades by me and Bought ones , THIS ARE GREAT ,, you can shake them , use both sides , AND WASH IN YOUR WASHING MACHINE !!!!!! |

In Israel most house have Tiles that are made of Ground stones with
some sort of Cement. There are a variety of colors . We chose the more `traditional` ones that look like "Quaker Porridge" , which is easy to match , restful to the eye and doesn`t show every drop of water. In the Living room they are tiles of 30 x 30 cm , and in the other rooms 20 x 20 cm , very easy when you want to measure threads or such !!!! Stone floors? I'm trying to imagine that. Like in a castle? That's neat. Now I want stone floors! How do you clean them? You use a Broom to collect the dust, and than you wash them with a special floor cloth! i know this is a local thing , when ever Israelies travel abroad they take some of those floor cloths with them. thay are very porous and soak up all wetness and i keep several and when they are dirty i wash them as one big load in the machine . Can you mop them? Mop we actually WASH floors... Aren't the stone floors hard on your feet? they are very nice to have in our mostly warm climate .. Can I come to your house and look at your floors? ![]() You are Welcome to come mirjam |
