#31: Rugs on Wooden Floors
Remember that picture of a hat without a sticker on it earlier on this list? I’ve got a similar picture, yet dedicated to flooring. Below, we have a comparison of how a rug can change the color of wooden floor that has been under certain lighting for years.
See the original flooring color, that light wood? That’s how the flooring looked initially, before the rug and lighting was ever put in place. Once the rug was put in this room, and once the effect of lighting for years beat down on the flooring, the rest of the wood began to change color. Since the rug always covered a part of the flooring, the light was never able to hit it!
