Bedroom with Carpet

After the living room floors were done, we decided to tackle the main bedroom. The floors in there were nice, but I wanted to have some soft, warm carpet to put my feet on in the morning. The picture below is after we sanded the floors, and painted the trim and walls.
We used polyurethane and finished about three feet in, where you would first walk when you would enter the bedroom.
There was a strange little seam or something there, so we thought it would be a great place to start the carpet.
Then the padding came, and it was quite pretty.
Then the carpet came in. It looked quite brown when we were at the store, but it changed into a brown purple by the time it was installed. It took a few minutes to get used to, but we love it now. Where the carpet ended, we put a carpet reducer. It looks like wood, but I am pretty sure it is wood coated plastic or something.
And there you go, the carpet ends, there is a little walkway, and it is wood inside the closet. I love it!!
Daisy does too, there is a lot of wood flooring around, and she really likes something soft to lay on (since apparently her bed isn't soft enough).
As soon as the carpet was in, we moved the bed up. The basement was really fun for a week or so, but we were excited to get our room going and to begin feeling comfortable in our new space.
