Laura Leier, our sales and design consultant based in Carlisle’s Denver design center, worked with customer Michael Wright who was doing a complete makeover of his home in Lafayette, Colorado.  He needed new floors throughout his main level, stairs, upper hallway and a master bedroom and he needed done within his tight budget. Laura came up with a great solution with Carlisle’s Antique Oak “shorts” in widths of 3 to 7 inches.  “Shorts” are just boards that a less than our usual eight feet length.  In this case, customer Wright used boards that averaged 4 feet each.  Then he used a Tung oil finish. Reports are that he was very happy with the results. What do you think?
