That's a good idea, and likely less difficult too. I'd like to try it to see if it would work, but I'll probably just wind up buying the one or two new carpets instead. Then, I also have been thinking more about getting OY painted, and I was thinking that it might be a better idea to wait until the body and paint work is done before putting the interior in. I keep going back and forth between doing it up the way I really want to, and just making do. For sure, nothing is going to happen until at least Spring, but I do like to think about it. In the meantime, I have to finish laying tile in the foyer, and put new oak treads on the stairs in the house along with a new railing and banister. Then it's on to putting up crown molding, painting, refinishing the floors, etc, etc. Hoping to be able to put it on the market in the Summer...with some luck and a LOT of work left to do.
