13. We made a brown-paper floor as a temp solution.

We had to tear the carpet out of our living room because of the cats. We were about to put the house on the market and just didn't have the money to put in a new carpet, and we were reluctant to anyhow as the house was just begging for wood throughout, but it was going to have to be up to the next owner.

Torn brown paper and a few gallons of polyurethane made a good looking floor. It's an easy DIY, and goes fast once you get your rhythm. Here's my thread on it:
