I really wanted to make the broom first, but I want to make a nice one with the right materials and education, so here's my dirty->clean floor!

It's been a bit since I've done a thorough, underneath-all-the-rugs floor cleaning (I raised chicks in the living room a couple weeks ago so it's definitely time!) so I rolled them all up last night and swept everything.

Photo #1 Kitchen and Hall before.

Photos #2-#3 Action shots.

Photo #4 After. (Note: Things that look like bits on the floor are stains or other imperfections that are either permanent or require elbow grease to remove).
