We have painted the walls in the basement.
Just recently we have stained the concrete flooring.
At first, I was not real excited when my husband suggested concrete flooring, but as I thought about it, concrete flooring is pretty practical with a preschool! Although, we will have a rug for the children to sit on, during circle time and our "dramatic play" room will be carpet. The cabinets will arrive next week and I can't wait!!
