I need some suggestions!
The old tile in the kitchen floor is gone (thankfully!) and the hardwood floor has been extended from the dining room. I like the look of the natural wood, or the lighter color of the natural wood. The guy was here today and sanded the dining room and kitchen floors - what a difference. So light and airy. We checked they stains they brought and yuck - didn't match, so more are coming tomorrow. The kicker is the kitchen cabinets are darker with a reddish tone to them.
My question is - dare I go with a natural or lighter stain on the floor? Have any of you seen/done this in your kitchens? This isn't something a can of paint and a little time will correct if I do it wrong!
Grrrrrr. decisions, decisions, decisions!
Help!!

Read your comment on TDC about staining your light floors. We have dark red mahogany cabinets and light (natural) wood floors and I really like it. IMHO if you try and stain the floors it's going to be too dark all the way around. Ours were sanded and finished with poly about 7-8 years ago. They have darkened a bit over the years.
There isn't any "should". You have them done the way they feel best for/to you.
My woodworking husband says go with natural. It will darken a bit. But it will make everything brighter.
