Pennies: Money or Flooring?

Did you know prehistoric floors had carpets?  They were formed from twisted grass or animal hair, and served primarily as decoration.

Luckily for us, we have evolved passed twisting grass and animal hair for our decorative flooring. Today, our flooring has a wide variety of materials: carpets, wood, ceramic tiles, vinyl or linoleum, stone, etc.  Society's interest in new designs and ideas are never ending and constantly changing.

Today, a new flooring fad that is sweeping our nation: pennies. It would not be out of the ordinary to walk into a restaurant or home and witness a copper sea of our past president's face.  People are using rolls of pennies to create floors, walls, showers, etc.  Some people are even going the extra mile to use the different shades of copper to create unique designs.

With this fad growing, there are several website available to teach you exactly how you can create your new penny floor.  In fact, there is an entire website dedicated to a couple who tried this experiment on their bedroom floor.

Keep this flooring design in mind for your next home upgrade, it's money.  Literally.
