I was at the Thunderbird earlier this month. It is my favorite motel. Love the concrete floors. Enjoyed the breakfast across the street. Ate lunch at the Food Shark truck. Saw the Marfa lights. Marfa is just so hipster and so is the Thunderbird.

Beckestra- Talked to my husband - We stained the floor tan, one coat and then put 2 coats of a matte sealer. We left the nail holes and uneven spots where the carpet glue was. We love the uneven rustic look and it cost less than $100.

We did it ourselves and it was so easy! The carpet had nails that we were careful to pull up around the edges. We went to Home Depot and asked for advice. I think we used one coat of something to treat the concrete and then used a tan concrete stain-2 coats. My husband used a roller with a handle to stain the concrete.

I have the perfect answer! Hamilton Beach has a coffee maker that makes one serving of coffee. You just put a scoop of any kind of coffee you want in it -no pods needed. I bought it online and I love it!!

We pulled up the carpet in our bedroom and study and used concrete stain on the floor. I love it here in Texas. It is nice and cool in the summer and it is easy to clean. Alot better than the old nasty carpet! I love it!!!

Yes-quickly dip the bread in the egg mixture. I then sprinkle extra cinnamon and nutmeg on the french toast and brown it in a Lodge cast iron pan wth melted butter.
