12" quartz backsplashes: just too much?

I like the 12" idea too especially with the wall mounted faucets and vessel sinks. I would also not be opposed to the splash going all the way up but with the 12" if a future resident did decide to add some contrasting tile accent they could. I think you are on the right track and this would be appealing to me if I were looking at the place to live. It has the type of personal characteristics that could be made to go with either modern or traditional tastes. Good luck!...See MoreShow me your bath: 12x12 tile, different patterns on floor/wall?
Comments (4)I missed this question so hopefully I'm not too late. They're all 1/8" thick grout line. The tile on the floor is just a tiny bit off of the color of the tile on the walls (because the granite place went out of business and I had to find different tile) so the floor shows the grout lines a little bit more than the wall tile does (it's a perfect blend there). The spacers were the same though on both :) My counters in that bath are crema marfil...I just love the stuff :) In person you can't tell that the two tiles are from differnt quaries, but when I take pictures I can see one is just a tiny bit lighter than the other (the flash accentuates it) which is what makes the grout stand out that tiny bit....See Morerecessed storage in master bath: how much is too much?
Comments (8)girl_wonder, don't worry, I was unprepared to so many things I won't bore you with the list..)) so I went to see what I store there..or rather, my kids-it's a hall bathroom so it's theirs when they're home, and guests'-and it's easier to say what's not there. My stuff is not.(it's in the master) And supplies and seasonal things(like bug sprays etc) are in the closet in the corridor. I also have several hiding places for medicines allover the house. (for who knows when fate might strike right? lol) Otherwise..it's shaving cream, and alcohol(I mean the one that desinfects), and all sorts of medicines, and creams, and spare soaps and deodorants and shampoos and I don't know what else. Yes, whatever they use daily is in the upper part of the cabinet. But not neccessarily. As for your other question, regarding vintage cabinet next to plain mirror-no, it doesn't have to look unbalanced. We did something similar in my MIL's bath . It really depends on proportions and everything else. Will you recess it? If not-it'll go last anyway, and you'll already have all the elements there, and it'll be much easier to figure out what works , what not, and where exactly to put it so it's most pleasing to the eye and most functional height to use. Whether to go with a long storage cabinet at all or do something else..well it depends on your bath. My hall bath is small, pretty hardworking, the vanity is 36'( I think), it's second hand too and looks light because it has open shelves-I didn't want to overwhelm that bathroom.. The shelves look fine because I use bins there so everything's contained. But I sorely needed much more storage. Hence the biggest ready-made cabinet I could get. Frankly I was going to buy some cool vintage doors, and started hunting for them -but then they explained to me that I might end up paying thousand and more to build a frame to fit old cool doors. That sad fact brought me to Wayfair. Otherwise I'd have cool vintage doors wherever I could. I had big plans and all that. In our master we have wall cabinet only in the restroom and it's also vintage and has glass, as a roll of toilet paper aside-I put there things that look pretty. Main space-we have long roomy vanity, custom-made and very conveniently planned, so no need for medicine cabinet. Everything fits inside. We also have a tiny-tiny powder room, and there we put another vintage cabinet over the toilet and across the mirror. There also the vanity is tiny (rather a stand..also vintage), so the mirror has small shelf (took me months to find a mirror with a shelf that'd fit there. Also Wayfair. And frankly-it's a high price for the quality. , The cabinet holds standard jazz medicines, tooth brushes for guests etc, I like how mirrored vintage cabinet is reflected in the mirror, and vice versa. It's really a tiny space. . So it depends on so many things-how many bathrooms are there in the house, their sizes, what else will be there in terms of storage, how many people will use it, what are their needs, what are their habits, what are most realistic scenarios for your family.. My mantra usually is-increase smart storage whenever possible. What's smart-will depend. I come from urban living and tight quarters and many people who share them. It always looked pretty, clean, and ready for guests too (guests were big part of life) because of how it was organized. Bungalow from 40 s sounds very cool. I hope you'll achieve there just that right vibe you look to achieve. Sounds exciting, anxiety aside. I'd rather use something not recessed if I already have one recessed plain mirror cabinet, and different in nature so it all looks intentional -or something concealed and not taking any attention. Make sure if you haven't yet that your electrical plan for sconces will work in your space. Saying that just because I had a plan, and hunted very pretty sconces, and all-but it turned out to be too narrow a space, and sconces could somehow be fit but looked like my life at its low point. Seeing the plan with measurements will be helpful, if/whenever you decide to ask specific questions....See MoreAdvice needed for 12' x 7.5' bathroom floor tile and shower wall tile
Comments (25)Home Depot is the only place within two hours that sells the pre-fab, and the colors are horrible. I need three bathroom countertops, and the largest is 52". I should be able to find remnants, but I can't even find fabricators who have remnants. Nobody has a website and the fabricators don't advertise, at all. I found six places in Tulsa, but none of them have quartzite remnants. I can only find stone suppliers. I will make a list of suppliers this weekend, and call them on Monday. Maybe they have a list of fabricators near me. Even Google maps didn't have anyone listed near me. They didn't have the two fabricators that are a half hour away from me. What is your opinion on glossy vs honed in a bathroom. My kitchen has leathered Sea Pearl quartzite, and I love it. I prefer matte colors usually, but I doubt I would like leathered bathroom countertops....See More
