This next "Pinterest Taught Me How To" is dedicated to my three-yeard-old daughter, whom I had this exact conversation with this past week.

Daughter:  Mommy, you have blood under your eyes.

Me:  What?  No, I don't!  Where do you see blood?  

Daughter:  Right there (pointing), the red and pink and purple.

Me:  (realization hits)  No honey, that's not blood, those are called dark circles.  

Ah the beautiful honesty of children!

Last week, I gave you all a sneak peek of the tile floor in our Addition, and asked your opinion on whether we should do matte or glossy tile.  There were lots of great comments on what you would choose and why, and my husband and I read them all and talked about it thoroughly. I was still having such a hard time deciding...I was afraid the matte would look too dull and uninspired, and I was worried the glossy would make the floor look too new or modern in our old house.  Therefore, I planned a little experimentation to help steer our direction.
