Dallas, TX – June 5, 2015 – Quick-Step flooring was recently featured in the “DIY-ers Paradise” den transformation episode of Oprah’s Home Made Simple television show. Installation of a Quick-Step floor was as a key design element of the DIY-friendly changes that transformed a small, junky room into a relaxing, stylish den!

The recipients of the new room were Michael and his wife Yani of Wilmington, California. Michael is a man who gives his all for the love of his community. Besides working two jobs, he volunteers his time with “I Heart Wilmington”, a non-profit organization where he plants community gardens, volunteers in the local schools, and recently helped organize a book fair that gave out over 10,000 books to the children of Wilmington.
 
“These Old Floors GOTTA GO!”
“If we could do something about these floors that would be fantastic … THEY-GOTTA-GO!” exclaimed Michael’s wife Yani as the Home Made Simple transformation team surveyed the “before” state of the room receiving the makeover.
 
To replace the room’s old, dated flooring, the show’s interior designer, Jinnie Choi, selected Cornsilk Bamboo 2-strip planks from Quick-Step’s Classic Collection.
 
The light color of Quick-Step’s Cornsilk Bamboo helped make the small room appear larger. And, the sleek, modern look of Cornsilk Bamboo was the perfect design foundation upon which interior designer Jinnie Choi could build the rest of the new room’s décor.
 
“This Room Looks Fantastic!”
“The room looks fantastic! It’s a dream come true!” beamed Michael and Yani during the big reveal of their new den. “It look so much bigger too! I can’t believe the transformation this room has undergone! It’s like night & day! It went from a nightmare to a dream come true! This place is beautiful!”
 
Beautiful, Affordable, Easy-To-Install
An important premise of Home Made Simple is that the show’s interior designers purposely use products and make changes that are beautiful, stylish, affordable for consumers, and easy to achieve. This made Quick-Step a perfect fit for this episode’s DIY focus! The level of realism and sophisticated design in Quick-Step flooring brings the authentic look and feel of hardwood flooring into a home, at a price that fits into most decorating budgets.

Quick-Step floors are also easy to install, because they feature the patented Uniclic glueless installation locking system. Installation of a new Quick-Step floor is within the skill level of most homeowners. As viewers watch the transformation of Michael and Yani’s den they witness how a new Quick-Step floor can literally be installed in one day, but enjoyed for years to come!
