e you can see the floor almost finished. The instructions said to use double sided sticky tape to fix
the tiles but I wasn’t convinced this would be permanent. I used PVA but be warned, the thin wood
tiles curl up quickly. If you use glue have books or flat weights handy to weigh the tiles down until
they dry.
Here is the floor with all the tiles in
place.
It looks so lovely. I finished it off with a
coat of wax to protect it. You can see
here the wax I used, beeswax and it is
simply a case of wipe on, leave to dry
and then polish up.
