So Marc ordered tile for the bathroom. Yippee!
I'm super happy with his choice. It is really hard to find modern tile that isn't super expensive, but we have a GREAT local Crossville rep so we went with their Shade series.
We really like the elongated rectangle size for this space (because it is an elongated rectangle itself), so we ended up with the unpolished 12x24" for the floor & wall both in Vapor. We would have loved to do a darker tile in a 6x24", but we got a screaming deal on the vapor color. (I'm talking 81% off deal. Yea.)
We needed also needed smaller size for the shower floor (helps in sloping to drain) so that we paired the 1x3" mosaic in the Whites. (Only 40% off deal. Bah!)
Check it out, it is so pretty and modern (not to mention cheap!):

You guys are FLYING! Happy renovation holidays! (Chris has this week off and we're looking forward to getting things checked off the list)
ReplyDeleteWe ordered it, but we are in no way ready for it!
DeleteAnd not doing great this weekend. I've sort of hit an pregancy-exhaustion wall and Marc is relaxing a little = no bathroom work.
NOT. GOOD.
Ummm, pregnancy exhaustion is allowed: you're having a baby in like 2 weeks!
DeleteMy pregnancy exhaustion has no excuse. I'm not even at 20 weeks and doing the 2nd coat of mud and tape this afternoon was No. Fun. At. All.
