So sorry that it's taken me a long time to reply, we've been on spring break and every day/night at least one of my children has had a group of friends over-- a lot for me to keep up with. I love these ideas! The celestial print, the vintage photographs, the hooks for towels, everything. Thank you so much. And yes, no frogs (although I truly think they would love that), but I am leaning towards a lone star in the room somewhere, after all, we're in Texas. I'm also leaning toward burgundy as the main color, but still haven't reconciled that with my dark, golden oak floors. Today I was in a thrift shop and found a nicely framed van gogh print, the image, which had brilliant, deep blues and yellows (this wasn't Starry Night but a cafe' scene) prompted me to consider those colors as well (plus we're Notre Dame fans so we get a lot of mileage out of those two colors). In any case, your comments caused a lightbulb to go off in my head. Thank you! Please keep your ideas coming. I need all of the help I can get! Thank you so very much.

A small bath needs FEW materials/changes. Go back to the tile shop. The combinations of mosaic and large format are nearly infinite. You are in love with ONE thing from a display. : ) It's not the only tile you can love, nor the only sleek pale beige and ivory bath possible. I don't see the "fantastic" in it, quite honestly. Maybe its the picture.You don't even NEED an accent in the wall tile. Tile doesn't "absorb" . EVER. That's its purpose. Unless you mean needing no seal. That is true of all porcelain tiles. Only stones, marble, slate would need a seal prior to install. PS........ take my advice. Skip the ivory for WHITE > Much fresher and modern

they're all over. some are known as Kit Kat tiles. others "Japanese finger tiles" . houzz has these on sale in this color, but scroll down on this page and see the other colors Wayfair has a bunch https://www.wayfair.com/The-Mosaic-Factory--3.5-x-0.5-Microbeveled-Porcelain-Mosaic-Sheet-Tile-SEF12-L2970-K~MSFC1171.html https://www.wayfair.com/home-improvement/pdp/the-mosaic-factory-35-x-05-micro-beveled-porcelain-mosaic-sheet-tile-msfc1171.html?piid=57370416 Glass? https://www.tilebar.com/maya-stacked-sky-polished-glassmosaic.html check out the Portmore tiles. (comes in diff colors) https://www.tilebar.com/portmore-white-3x8-glazed-ceramic-tile.html Tilebar has them, but I think Wayfair and HomeDeport carry them under the IvyHill tiles. https://www.wayfair.com/home-improvement/pdp/ivy-hill-tile-kingston-3-x-8-ceramic-subway-tile-sost4285.html?piid=50449687

I have to agree with above. Its a nice looking bathroom. It just needs some color added, and laminate flooring will never hold up in a bathroom. Laminate hates moisture, and if it gets wet you will have a mess. The tiles are neutral, and in really good condition. Add color in accessories, and dont put any paint on those tiles. It will just end up being a nightmare for someone else to remove. If you need something else on the floor, use some area rugs.
