Great! I love your floor. I have a hunch you're going to love your bathroom. What's your paint color? It is lovely and soft. I just put in BM Bunny Gray in my project and it reads a very soft soft blue. You put in the Bellwether 60" (standard install size) didn't you:) I have that in my ongoing remodel project too. I think it is very stylish. I like the low side for getting small kids in and out (grandkids someday). How do you like using this tub for your shower? My remodel is in a bath without a shower. But I have another bath that might get a make over in a year and haven't decided if I will just take out the tub and go with a shower only or put a tub/shower in to replace the existing setup. Congratulations on a beautiful job. What are your other bathrooms looking like?

Bee and a few others here have done beveled porcelain arabesque tile from Mission Stone and Tile. I placed an order for the same tile for my sister's house last month (40 feet of it!) and it was on-sale at the time so it made for an even better deal. I love the look of it and can't wait to see it installed. Here's a few example threads: http://ths.gardenweb.com/discussions/2691246/pic-heavy-beveled-arabesque-is-being-install  http://ths.gardenweb.com/discussions/2506106/beekeepers-wife-question-about-your-kitchen With regards to what would work better for you - I'd suggest posting some pictures of your space, cabinet color, granite, etc along with what "feeling/style" you are going for and people will chime in

You know bad work when you see it - and this is it! Upon arrival and finding out he was doing glass tiles, why did he not leave to get the proper cutting tools? Red flag. And yes, typically there are spacers, and tiles are set before grouting, so you could have been consulted about placement etc, and inspected prior to grouting. Another red flag. Someone who complains when they do work in your home, isn't going to do a good job. Yet another red flag. I learned the hard way in doing home renovations if you don't speak up, people try to get away with a lot, or won't do work up to your standards - unless you have a great general contractor who shares your same high standards. I think as the homeowner you have to be proactive; you always have to inspect and ask questions, during the job and definitely before you pay anything - or hold out a certain percentage until you inspect finished work. I guess you can try and dispute the payment, if you used a credit card and then request that the contractor to remedy the situation. Of if you paid the big box store, dispute the charge with them until you get satisfaction. Keep going up the food chain! I've heard so many bad stories about big box store work, tough lesson. I hope you get it resolved. Keep us posted.
