Tiling a Small Double Room Bathroom:Which Size Square? 12' or 18'
Comments (4)My guess is 12, however perhaps you could cut some newsprint 12 and 18 inch squares, lay them on your floor and get the feel of the size. Thanks for your report on Amtico. We would love to get it, however we can not find a dealer in the Seattle area with a display of Amtico....See MorePaint Examples for DH's Bathroom. I Hate Paint :(
Comments (3)I'm so confused. I can't post a picture on this forum (gardenweb discussions) but I CAN on houzz discussions...which I thought were the same now. So here is the link to the houzz side of the discussions (picture included) https://www.houzz.com/discussions/paint-examples-for-dhs-bathroom-i-hate-paint-dsvw-vd~3235154...See Morewhich bathroom floor tile?
Comments (6)Remember the KISS rule: Keep It Simple Sally! Right now you have white on white on white with some white. You have decided on a white subway tile for the tub surround which locks in a SHAPE. If you throw in a floor tile that has a different shape/presentation you are going to get a mish-mash of styles. If you go with a marble-look hex, you won't have anything to anchor your space. It will feel like you are walking into a cloud. The patch-work-quilt tile would be strong patterning, but it could be distracting. It would take away from the modern, clean, crisp lines you have just created with the rest of the space. With a bathroom that is white on white on white with white tiles, I would prefer to see a STRONG colour on floor. Like a slate-look porcelain tile. It would be STUNNING....See MoreWhich tile would you use in this family bathroom makeover?
Comments (8)To answer your ps: Sophie is Sophie Wheeler, a very long-time pro who was a prolific poster on this website since before it became Houzz. She was incredibly knowledgeable about everything design/construction, and tried her best to knock some sense into people. She was funny, smart, and just seemed to know everything about everything, so she was widely respected for her knowledge. She wasn't universally well-liked, however, due to her direct sharp nature. She was banned from the website, but I don't think it was over her direct bluntness....since there are several pros and others still here who are at least as direct, blunt, and sometimes offensive. A lot of people were offended by the way this website treated her, and some people left, never to return (apparently). I'm sad she left, and sadder to hear that she is in poor health. I believe you can do a search for her name, and read through some of her comments. It's a good way to learn a lot about building a house and remodeling, without making horrible mistakes....See Moremonicakm_gw
