This is really creative, but are people aware that's money. If you don't like pennies or change, don't throw them on the ground, donate it until it actually is obsolete. Meanwhile, that many pennies could buy someone a meal, or help build a home.
Great idea but did you ever think of the poor people that buy your “interior design” triumph in the future? Unfortunately what we do today won’t last forever. I’m the person that has had to clean up after these great ideas.
I love love this penny floor but you didn't say the cost of the pennies for the floor? I am always looking for unique ideas and budget friendly way to do floors or walls..
Your floor looks absolutely amazing!! I am going to install one myself as well, i've been researching what epoxy to use. Has there been any yellowing of the epoxy you used?
Not my style, but I have to say, to those who need to be educated. First, when talking about "waste", laying down $270 worth of pennies on the floor is no different than spending $270 on typical flooring. Second, it's not illegal in the U.S. to use money in this way. It's illegal to mark or deface money in a way that gives you political or business gain. But this is not illegal. Educate yourselves and open your minds.
No, not illegal. Why ethically wrong? What's the difference between using $270 worth of pennies or buying $270 worth of metal flooring or tile that is shaped like pennies? Your objection seems ridiculous. It's a style choice, not for everyone. I'm sure not everyone likes your style choices.
Deliberately Damaging and or permanently confining U.S. cash coins for personal gain is illegal in the United States. It is also illegal to own bird feathers, but hey..at least we're in the U.S.A. !
Personal gain? How is she personally gaining from this? 🌸. How did she accumulate THIS many pennies. I saved up a dutch oven full of pennies once, but that wouldn’t do a very large area. 🌺. What do you do when you need to drill through the floor for something? For example: plumbing.
Did you know ?, No kidding. It is illegal to use our National Currency in such a manner and is probably a prosecutable action ... It's against the law to put money on the RailRoad tracks too ....
very nice job with the floor...a couple of questions...could you use a self-leveling compound instead of the patch & skim coat product that you used for the uneven parts of the floor? what was the total cost for the finished job?
You could do an unusual look for a lot less but ut would take an entitled fool to use money. This is considered defacing currency which is a dederal crime.
Why is putting $270 worth of pennies on the floor any different than spending $270 on typical flooring. Why is someone who can afford a floor like this "entitled". Maybe she worked very hard to save her money so she can do with it what she wants. And no it's not a dederal crime. Not a federal crime either. Educate yourself and open your mind.
I have thousands of foreign coins just sitting in tins, now i have an idea what to do with them. Not the floor but something, i'm going to think about what to do with them. Thank you for a great idea.
I suppose it'll work in areas where they still have pennies - Canada abolished them a few years ago, and they are quickly vanishing, as they were still mostly copper.
