So, my dear friend JLF has a dilemma. She is redoing the wood floors in her darling West Hollywood home and she cannot decide on floor color. Right now her wood floors are that medium honey color...after a few years of living in her house, she is now ready to make the floors her own.
JLF called me the other day asking whether she should paint her wood floors white or go with a dark dark dark wood floor.
What do you think...white wood vs. dark wood that is the question? Take a look at these examples and you decide!

So what do you think dear readers? What should JLF do? White wood vs. dark wood that is the question.
Happy Monday!
