Flooret Modin Luxury Vinyl Plank Review - Elmstead Signature
In this video, I'll walk you through why I chose to install the Flooret Modin collection in our home. I'll show all of the samples I got, the tests I did with the flooring, and talk about how it has held up over the last 6 months. This was our first time installing flooring but this flooring was beginner friendly to install and it turned out great so stick around for the reveal at the end!

    If keeping plants alive isn’t your thing, dry out some flowers or greenery for a vase! And if you don’t have any vases, check out the goodwill bins where things are priced cheaply per pound. But beware, it can be easy to buy a whole bunch of other stuff while you’re there because it’s “so cheap”. Stick with only getting what you came in for! And bring some gloves because it can get gross. 🤢

      Yeah that would be hard no doubt! We had a lot of stuff in our garage and attic for storage and projects. But after we got the back master bedroom primed with Kilz and painted we were able to use it. We just only brought over what we absolutely needed to live and used things like paper products in the kitchen since we still didn’t have a functioning kitchen for a long time which was rough. Then we waited to move everything over from storage until we finished the kitchen and floors. I would say the biggest help is not having children yet 😂 because we wouldn’t have been able to move in with it being such a wreck and mess let alone have the time to remodel it all DIY while working full time jobs!

    Was DIYing this coffee table cost effective? In terms of time, no. This design took a lot of labor, but we have ideas on how to improve that if we ever decide to make it again! In terms of materials, see below! Here’s the breakdown: • $9.76 - 19.5% of 1/2” single sided oak plywood, other side is birch. $50 is the cost of a full sheet, but we only used a 30”x30” square and we can reuse the rest of the wood. • $37.5 - 62.5% of 3/4” birch plywood. $60 is a full sheet of birch ply, we will repurpose the 1.5ftx8ft unused section. I am counting the inside of the circles as waste. • $15.19 - 1” edge banding 10ft roll, I only used 8ft but I’m including the 2ft being waste. • $12.8 - 3/4” edge banding used 16ft • $81.58 dowels (needed 170 14” dowels) • $80 CNC cost • $3 sealer Total $239.83 Keep in mind this is assuming you use the rest of the oak plywood and birch plywood, I am not including the cost of a full sheet of plywood in the total price. Using something like pole wrap could make it so you don’t need a CNC machine saving you $80 and it would take way less time. The pole wrap material is going to be just as expensive as the cost of the dowels. That’s the fun in DIY is experimenting and coming up with great solutions!

      hi, actual person with adhd here. adhd isn't a made up disorder. it's clinically proven, and it's something that happens in the brain of people with adhd vs people without adhd. it's also genetic in some cases. it's debilitating, and people do try to "build better habits" but in adhd brains it's harder to maintain those habits, even when you try to build them.

    Tips for saving money when installing carpet ⬇️ • carpet typically comes in 12’ or 15’ rolls and you buy however many feet of the roll you need, so keep that in mind when calculating how much carpet you need because if you only want a 9’ x 9’ piece, unfortunately you’ll have to buy a 12’ x 9’ piece and have some waste. • Home Depot and Lowe’s have a discounted carpet area where you can find leftover carpet for a fraction of the price so that’s a great place to look if you aren’t picky on the carpet! • Do everything you can before renting the power stretcher (carpet padding and cutting the carpet) that way you can rent it for as little of time as possible. If you need it for longer than the minimum time of 4 hours but not a full day, ask them if they’ll prorate the price! • if you are doing a large room that is going to require a seam, make sure to include that in your calculations! We didn’t have to do that for our room. What do you want to see the price of next?! Let me know in the comments!

  • @SarahDenna

    And what are the prices for the tools and stain? Don’t say “anyone” when you mean people who have a shop in their garage.

    • @halversonhomedecor
      @halversonhomedecor Před 2 měsíci

      The only tool I used is a drill. Almost everyone I know who doesn’t have a full shop has one, even if it’s a cheap one. That was the only tool I used since my wood was cut at Home Depot. I also said in the video, you don’t have to stain it. I had leftover stain I chose to use so it would match my floors and the cost of that came out to a couple cents for the amount I used. But that’s optional anyways.

      I guess it depends on what dollar amount you put to your time, I would say $400 is a stretch for me but it’s definitely not a quick 1 hour DIY. Gluing the dowels on takes some time, but cutting them with a multitool and painting was very quick.

    This is a new way I’ve never seen. Is this supposed to be better than just using wood filler or Bondo and just sanding it down? Or is this just a quicker, easier method? Thank you 😊

    • @halversonhomedecor
      @halversonhomedecor Před 3 měsíci

      I prefer not to use bondo when possible especially because if you put too much you have to sand the excess off and then you sand and just end up exposing more particle board. This filler primer just fills in the spots after a couple of rounds no sanding needed. Wood filler is just too soft in my opinion and wouldn’t be good on particle board damage.

      You should definitely check with your local county and have it checked out. Our wall was not load bearing but not all homes are the same. If it is load bearing there’s still ways to make things work, it just might involve having certain beams incorporated into the design and a structural engineer should be able to help you and get a permit.

      Thank you! It was Sherwin Williams Emerald urethane trim enamel in peppercorn and accessible beige. My clear coat is Behr satin polyurethane water based. Although if I could go back, I would have chosen wise owl one hour enamel and done a color match to the SW colors. It would have been more expensive but it’s so durable. I was previously a furniture flipper and the quality of wise owl one hour enamel is far superior than any paint I’ve ever used. But SW was significantly cheaper so I decided to try it out. And the urethane trim enamel is definitely high quality! So don’t get me wrong there, but it would be a runner up to wise owl.
