more back room updates

I decided to use the same chocolate paint (called Belgium sweet) for the back room that we used in the upper wall in our bathroom. Not only does it look warm and inviting for our back door area but we also had leftovers from the bathroom makeover
(please excuse the windows, I have not scraped the paint off the glass yet)
I actually found this cute light cheap at Target and I love the way it looks lit up at night
We still have to build trim around the doors and wire the light into the ceiling permanently
As you can see I still have some patching to do along the base and then figure out flooring
We are thinking about doing some type of plank flooring since the back stairs and then basement are a combination of sub flooring and cement. We found this neat looking vinyl plank flooring that resembles engineered wood planks pretty good. It would be easy to lay out and keep clean for the laundry area and bathroom down there too.. check out a sample of the type:

Here is a few pics of the flooring in rooms....I think it looks like pergo really...I saw it in person and they did a great job of making it look like real wood with grain textures and all! What do you all think?
