I am debating what to put down on my living room floor (for starters) and I really don't know. We re carpeted throughout in cream (!) when we moved in, in June! Despite being really really careful, they just look shabby now and an accident with cough medicine has made a big blue patch, coffee marks are dotted around everywhere by DHs careless cousin (and DH aswell ) and I just think cream is not cut out for having babies (mopped up nappy leakage today ). I think wood is too expensive for this type of house, we are not planning on staying tooooo long to make it worthwile, laminate was an option but DS tumbles over all the time so not really a good idea. I was watching a makeover programme today and they used vinyl, and I thought "urgh, that's going to be revolting" but it looked quite good . I have seen some that is textured like wood, obviously is easy to clean and most important is abit softer for DS to crawl on and fall on.
Has anyone tried the newer vinyls? Are they any good? Am I just being totally stupid thinking about it?
Please advise me as I really don't know if I would be insane to lay it in living dining room! Thanks xXx
