Questions - House needs to withstand toddlers
Comments (6)fori brings up a good point - linoleum! It's softer underfoot than tile, easier to clean (no grout joints) and if the room in question is under 12' (wide or long) you can get it in one piece with no seams (it comes on 12' wide rolls, or as smaller planks). But it held up to school kids for years in elementary schools across the country. I love the stuff, we have a piece in our vintage 1960's bathroom & it still looks & works great. I think Marmoleum brand is even low VOC, which is nice since toddlers are closer to the floor than the rest of us :) I would look for marmoleum/linoleum for the mudroom and laundry room, especially if you can get it in sheets (no seams) and even think about it for bathroom floors. If you bathe your kids by kneeling/sitting on the floor while they're in the tub ... your knees & back will thank you for not going with ceramic tile :)...See MoreOpinions on color/layout?
Comments (0)The pic below is a good starting point for what my shower will look like. The differences: my shower wall tile is 12x12 and a bit lighter in beige. The shower floor tile will be 2x2 mosaic off-white with flecks of taupe throughout. The walls will not be partial with glass panels - they will run vertically the entire way so the only glass will be the door which will be around 28 or 30 inches wide (framed in dark bronze). The floor tile outside the shower will be same as the shower floor except in 12x24 size. To sum it up: walls are solid no glass panels; the shower walls both inside and outside are a tonal beige; the shower floor and bathroom floor are off-white with taupe mixed in. I realize everyone has their own artistic opinions but I am curious what people think since I am mixing the colors a bit and am cutting down on the amount of glass in the shower. For the pic below imagine the tile covering the glass side panels. Oh one more thing: the right side - imagine it as a complete wall no glass - will be where the shower faucet is located so it points away from the door and as you shower you can view out the door rather than facing a wall....See MoreUse porcelain 12x24 marblelook walls and a real marble shower floor?
Comments (7)I would try to find a porcelain mosaic for the shower floor too. Based upon the number of threads I read in here about natural stone including marble that absorbs water, darkens and is always damp, I would be hesitant to use it on a shower floor....See MoreStuck on bathroom/shower floor ideas!
Comments (5)Here's my penny tile with my tile and cabinet sample. I just love it. You can impact the color of the penny tile with different color grouts and of course it comes in different colors. Can't wait to see it installed....See More- 12 years ago
