Saves BIG headaches if you do it this way. 4-5 strips across to the previously laid board does the trick. Oh, redbeard, the wood is actually a bit darker than in these pics (loads of sun and house lighting makes it appear light in spots.

EDIT: Bella has a special adhesive for this application...Don't skimp!
Those look great! That is exactly the look were going for!

I was planning to use the Urethane sold by the Store (Lumber Liquidators) and get the self leveling compound from them as well. This way it is all compatible and the warranty matches.
