We are doing this black wainscoting in our powder room, would love your vote on the tile! It's 27 sq ft and we are putting a white pedestal sink. One is a lot more affordable the the other two lol Thanks!

Need Help Selecting Tile for Powder Room Remodel
Comments (4)Thanks for the replies. I finally found a real solid black but in a odd size -- Daltile has an unpolished (not shiny) jet black tile in 24"x12" size. I was so happy, but then I see you replies about how the charcoal looks good. Now I'm doubting myself. :( The vanity top will be black galaxy polished, and the wall color I'm aiming for a warm gold. Here is a pic of the design that inspired this remodel: http://www.hgtvpro.com/hpro/photo_template/article/0,3140,HPRO_28216_6027344_10,00.html. I'm going for that similar wall color. This pic has charcoal floor tiles, but then it has a black cabinet. By the way, how do I get email alerts when I receive follow up posts? I didn't even realize I had replies on this post!...See MorePowder room half tile v full tile accent wall, tile height & selection

Comments (29)I’m going to say something really strange about having dark walls, floors or fixtures in a bathroom. It will easily show the white dust/fluff that comes from toilet paper. Judging from the photo, you use a lot of it. I’m a clean freak and notice that whenever I wipe the walls down in the bathroom, if I use a dark cloth, it’s completely covered with white fluff. Something to think about. Maybe a few black accents will be just enough....See MoreEntry tile? Adjacent powder room match the same tile?
Comments (33)Yun, just a few pics that I think might help. this is a small entry like yours w/the powder room off to the left. they continued w/the same tile some other ideas to help you w/transition or change of direction. since your doing hardwood you could 'frame' out the entry, and just do the wood in the powder room or, do both and transition into hardwood by 'piecing in the tile in a random pattern' another option is to lay the slate tile in a single layout around the border. if you can't quite continue the herringbone, then try doing something like shown here on the transition you could also opt to do this 8x8 black/white tile in the powder room. I think something along this line would look nice next to the black slate (doesn't have to be this pattern) If you want to use the Kenzzi tile in your other photo for the bathroom floor, you can. then just do the white subway tile on the walls or shower or whatever. maybe do a herringbone design w/the white subways. here's a powder room right off the front entry. they did the wood, but you can see the tile in the bathroom. if you did the black herringbone, the other tile would still look nice. you could also opt for a larger slate tile but if you can easily do the herringbone from entry to powder room, I'd prob go that route. closet too. hard to see where to end it. prob the blue line, but maybe either two would work too! you won't know until you start laying it. Always do a dry layout and make sure whomever is doing this tilework knows how to layout a herringbone w/symmtry. you can't just start in the middle w/the point of the tile! you'll be off on the sides. you have to speed square the tile to get the 45, then snap two chalk lines, and put the middle of tile on the one line. (it's so hard to try to explain when writing) This is mine:...See More

4 years agoWe ended up with the tile below which was more within our budget but still great quality. Already ordered the pedestal sink and black faucet (which I can change). or can I keep the back and pop gold with the accessories and mirror - like this:

4 years agoYou can do brass especially the dull brass for a powder room, but if you have exposed pipes they should match and I'm not sure that is available.

Just make sure you work out all the fine details before you begin to place orders. Decide how a black faucet in front of a black wall will really appear or if the contrast of the brass would be better
