The first step of installing the flooring was to make a template of the room.  I cut a rough outline and then taped bits of paper to cover any open areas.  This method makes up for any warping there may be along the edges of the room.

I used dark wood flooring by Handley House; it comes on a paper backing so you can cut a single piece of flooring using a template instead of laying the wood down strip by strip.  I did have to piece the wood a bit by the fireplace wall since the sheet was not wide enough to cover the entire width of the room.

The flooring isn't permanently affixed yet.  There are a few gaps from the wall, but I think it turned out well for my first attempt at wood flooring.  I plan to paint the edges where the base floor will show to make the gaps less obvious, and there will be a baseboard around the perimeter as well.

The wallpaper is scrapbook paper by The Paper Company appropriately called Parchment Tan; it is also not permanently affixed yet.  The furniture is by Bespaq, bought on eBay; the plant came from Hobby Builders Supply.  I am not sure if these pieces will stay here since I bought them for a different room, but they are closer to what I have in mind than the red velvet ones I had been using during the planning phase.  I made the rug and fireplace.
