New Tiles in Master Bathroom
Comments (8)It is really overwhelming, I agree. I am redoing a bathroom now too and the choices are endless. It's kind of hard to settle down on one thing. Everything looks so beautiful. But I have finally set my course. I am keeping my shower and floor the same color because I have a stained glass window that I just found at an antique dealer that will become the room's focal point. I am having it built in to the wall over the clawfoot tub. I also have a black vanity with hand painted antique gold designs on the far end of the room. The room is going to be black and white -- mostly white with tiny black accent diamonds in the floor. My plan is to let the natural light bring in soft color through the stained glass window over the bathtub. My other lighting will be from antique brass fixtures. Walls will be wainscoted (white paint) half way up with a very pale blue/green wall color. I have been designing this in my head for years. Now it is finally happening!...See MoreOkay, how about glass tile on ONE bathroom wall
Comments (3)I am not a designer by any means, but what helped me narrow in on what to use (and not use) was to decide on what "theme" or general look I had in mind, then look at photos/pics of bathrooms in that "theme", then from there started to zero in on the possibilities. Otherwise I would still be trying to decide. I came up with my own look, but it really helped to have a goal. I would use pattern or color or tile type, then created my own mix. In terms of one wall or partial walls, the rule is there are no rules. You can create anything you desire. My biggest challenge was finding photos to inspire me! In my active master bath reno, 2 walls will be to the ceiling, and 2 will be partial, and that was specifically what I wanted to create. I was inspired by the idea of beautiful rooms with an exposed brick wall- kind of like "one tiled wall"....See Moredifferent tiles in different bathrooms?
Comments (15)thanks all! our house is a multilevel (about 2000 sq ft altogether) - the 3 bedrooms and 1 bath (to be tiled) is on the top floor, then the main entry (already have beige tile) and kitchen (same beige tile) and living room (beige carpet, same as bedrooms) are on the next level. One level down is the other bathroom, hallway to garage/mudroom. Then the lowest level is the basement (carpet). So 1 bathroom pretty much sits on top of the other one. And no tiles will be adjust to another... one time i'm considering for the upstairs bathroom is the one shown on the bathroom thread (see http://www.tileliquidators.biz/jadesage.html and also see the link posted below in a real life bathroom which looks very pretty, but will only using 13x13). The other tiles i'm considering for the downstairs bathroom will be in a random pattern of squares/rectangles: http://www.tileliquidators.biz/canyonsagerandom.html or this color http://www.tileliquidators.biz/canyonmuskrandom.html (the pictures shown aren't very good - the lighting was bad and didn't show the true tile colors - yes I'd seen all 3 tiles in real life). So they are different tiles, but have some similarities (tiles had variation of colors like slate). The downtown hallway is kinda choppy so the tile person thinks it'd work better with the random pattern. Thanks again for sharing your experience :) Here is a link that might be useful: jade sage tiles in a...See Morewhat do you do with pink tile in the master bathroom?
Comments (6)Tile on my (tiny iPhone) screen looks gold/grey. Is there another view that brings out the pink? The granite top looks very 80s and combined with 80s panelled cabinet doors seem at odds with the tiles which have a more 20s/30s vibe. Can you change door fronts to something flat and simple, and change bench top to better match the new wall colour and a simpler light. Best of luck....See Morepeggysue_1975
