| FLOR Runner |
 Hi there! We got our FLOR today. I just wanted to share what we did with it.
We have a very energetic young dog. Since moving into a new house in March, we've been concerned with what his nails could do to our hardwood floors when he tears from one end of the house to the other chasing a ball or his imagination, but we couldn't find a runner anywhere that suited our tastes.
I wasn't sure FLOR would be suitable for a single-tile runner, but decided it couldn't hurt to place an order and if it didn't work out, we could always use the tiles in a different arrangement. I ordered 24 Wide Wale black tiles on Monday and received them four days later. The single-tile runner worked out perfectly, and we had 12 squares left over to create a nice rug for the kitchen, tying the two areas of the main floor together perfectly. I've attached some photos. Munch is clearly a fan! We're looking forward to using FLOR throughout our house and will place an order again soon. Thank you for a great product and excellent customer service (Jamie!). |

| FLOR Ideas | FLOR goes cowhide |
|
Hi,
Here is the story, I really wanted an off-white cowhide rug (I had seen one on DWR's webside for $900) for my family room, but the recent economy didn't let this happen ;-(
So, I had an idea, I went to flor.com and found the very reasonable 'Subtle Shift' in beige, you can't beat $4.99 per tile!
Et voila, with 11 tiles, a cowhide pattern I made, a carpet knife and under $55 I finally have my cowhide rug.
Flor rocks.
Cheers,
Thordis

| My Bathroom FLOR Story |
My bathroom flor story,
After several months of trying to find a rug to fit our lengthy guest bath I finally decided to take matters into my own hands and customize my own rug using Flor.
Cutting the tiles was quite simple and allowed me to get the exact length and width that I needed to fit the space. I used Straight and Narrow with a little Fedora to come up with the simple geometric shape. I am quite pleased with the results, so thank you Flor.
Andrea,
Seattle

| Our New Hallway! |
 We have used FLOR in almost every room in our house and LOVE the outcome!
Our most recent project was our hallway. Our home was built in the 1950's and when we recently pulled up the old carpet in the hall, we expected to find hardwood floors, like the rest of the house. Instead, to our surprise, we found very dated, and worn out linoleum.
Our plans had always been to use FLOR, but not wall-to-wall, so we were a little worried about cutting the tiles to fit. It was not a problem at all and turned out great!
We used Toy Poodle in Tin Tin Teal, Loco Cocoa and Go Fetch Green, along with Martha Stewart Needlepoint Stripe in Branch. We love it, and so does our dog Greta!
Thanks again FLOR!

| my FLOR Story |
 Dear FLOR People -
We recently added a master suite to our home. The new addition is connected to the original house by a thirty foot long 'connector' space which looks onto an inner courtyard.
To tie the front of the house to the new area I used a seventy foot long runner of FLOR tiles. In the kitchen/family room the runner uses Next In Line (Almond) and in the master bedroom it is Toy Poodle (CeCe Chalk). In between the runner morphs from one type of tile to the other in a random pattern at the point where it also widens out to create an area for my desk/office.
In addition we used the Next In Line carpet tiles for an area rug in the living room, and I am about to buy more of the Toy Poodle for an area rug in the sitting area of the master bedroom.
I love FLOR tiles and I have gotten many complements on them. By the way, the floor under the runner is concrete with radiant heat in it. I checked with your customer service people to be sure that the types of carpet tiles I wanted would work with the radiant heat - they do and it is great!

| My FLOR Story #2 |
|
This year, we completely remodeled this room
from a boy sports theme into a girly heaven for my 10-yr-old daughter. When it came to covering the floor with a rug, I knew just where to get it! I love the saturated, bright colors of Toy Poodle and was dying to use them. The Fluffy Fuchsia and Bow Wow Black combined beautifully with Amazing Lace to make this unique rug. My daughter LOVES it!

| FLOR Time in the Playroom |
|
My husband and I were looking for a fun, practical way to soften and protect the hardwood floors in our son and daughter's playroom. We found the precise combination of toughness and style we were looking for in Flor's Classic Quilt.
We love its bold colors and charming combination of textures and feel great about using a low-VOC, eco-friendly carpet that reflects our commitment to design materials that are safe for our children and better for the planet. And how convenient is it that we can pop the tiles up in the event of spills and finger painting gone awry? Fabulous indeed!

| Laundry Room FLOR |
|
We were redoing our upstairs laundry room - a great space with a balcony looking into our Florida jungle.
For too long the room had just been a dumping ground for dirty laundry and cast-off stuff. We wanted a floor that is comfy, smooth, and colorful, and we needed it fast in order for our renovation to go as planned.
We ordered FLOR Shirt Stripe in Linear Effect and it came in just three days. We installed it wall to wall, painted the walls lime green, added a custom lime green counter top, some Ikea cabinets and a pull down laptop desk, and now we have a new laundry room and office space that is inviting and cheerful. Our house was built in 1972, and the flooring complements and updates that 70's vibe. Thanks!

We were looking for something
durable and attractive for our
basement exercise room. We
installed Home Movies in Pistachios and it looks
fabulous.

| Square Dance |

Dear Flor,
I had been searching for months to find the perfect runner for the hallway. I reworked square dance to make the perfect design for my modern decor. I love it.
Thanks, Andrea
