Jordan Darian glued each coin down by hand using glue, then covered the entire floor with $300 worth of epoxy resin.

"Took me 16 hours to penny the floor. I used Elmer's glue to secure the pennies. I sealed the floor with epoxy resin, it cost around $300."she bought the three-bed, two-bath home in West Hollywood with her husband in 2018, and has been renovating it ever since.

She said:"I decided to penny the bathroom floor because it was something my mom had always talked about doing and I loved the idea! How many penny floors have you seen? I love fun decor and design surprises in a home. When we were in the market buying our first home I was horrified by all the cookie-cutter,"cut and paste" houses that had so obviously been flipped by someone who was just in it to make money.

"It was pretty challenging for several reasons. It took me way longer than I had anticipated to glue pennies down and it wasn't exactly fun to sit in the floor for hours gluing pennies to the floor. Once the pennies were secured I then used epoxy resin to seal them and create a smooth hard surface. It turned out better than I had hoped and we absolutely love it.

Addressing claims it's against the law to use money as decoration, Darian filmed herself in front of a green screen where she'd googled"is it illegal to penny your floor." "Since posting the video to TikTok I learned I may have made a very big mistake by not checking the pennies prior to permanently adhering them to my floor. I had no idea a penny could be so valuable and there are at least eight wheat pennies, upside down, so we are unable to check the year.
