Hardwood Colors

Stirling can't make up her mind either

We have to pick a stain for the oak wood flooring that is going into the kitchen and bathroom.  We were given these five choices and have eliminated two: Natural--too light-- and Provicial-- too similar to what we currently have.

We aren't going to be refinishing the entire downstairs at this time (my head would explode if I also had to pack up of the rest of the house), so we are looking at something darker for the new floor.  Nothing too dark that the back of the house, despite all windows, becomes a black hole or shows every dirt or dust particle in the sunlight. 

Currently, we are leaning towards Jaco Bean.  Or Dark Walnut.  It sorta depends on who you ask, and what time of day.

The planks will be the same as what we have in the rest of the house: 2 inches wide.  The samples we have are just in 4 inch planks. 

We have some time on this decision, which is why we keep changing our minds.  I think that this is the last thing to be done, and from what I am currently looking at in the kitchen, we have a long ways to go.
