I come from a long family history of DIYers. I grew up watching my parents do most of their projects around the house themselves and learned to absolutely love taking on home projects. When my husband and I purchased our first home together, there were a lot of areas that needed improvement.<\/p>\n
One of those areas that became a project for us right away was the main living area flooring. Honestly, it wasn\u2019t a bad color, but it was extremely dirty, stained, and had a smell to it that I didn\u2019t want to identify. I tried to steam it several times, but it just wasn\u2019t helping. So, after many attempts to salvage it, we decided that we were going to replace the carpet. However, the problem was that we had so many projects started, and we needed to save some money somewhere. So, of course, we decided to do it ourselves.<\/p>\n
In the months that followed, we took on a lot of different projects around our new house. We shared lots of stories and answered lots of question from friends and family about our projects we had done at our house. But there was one that kept coming up- You installed your own carpet?? How long did that take? <\/em>Most people never thought about taking on a DIY project with carpet!<\/p>\n
