I am soooooooo thrilled with the floor! Why you may ask? Is it heated?... No
Is it travertine?....no
Hardwood?.....nope
So why are you excited about a floor?
Because it no longer looks like this
No look closer......
Scared ya didn't I? I know, only a teen boy would go in there and not care.
I had found some black tile at the ReStore for 5dollars. I think there were 40 in all, but they were 8x8.
So had to figure something else out. I took a trip to Home Depot but they had no black tile. So I wandered over to their clearance section (another one of my favorite words cle a ra nce, see it just rolls off the tongue). They had these wonderful cheap tiles for around 5 dollars a box. They were a close-out and had only a few but that was more than enough for my task. YAY I could see it in my mind. I would rent a tile cutter be done in a day and then be able to install a sink. So did not work out that way. I rented a tile cutter but it was too small and didn't want to pay triple for a bigger one. I decided I would wait and go to Home Depot again and just pay to have the pieces cut, ( I only had 6). Yeah, HD doesn't do that any more...sigh, I turned to leave totally bummed, only to see a tile cutter big enough, for 3 dollars more than what I paid to rent the one I never got to use. I was suffering mixed emotions. I was happy, disappointed, hostile, and satisfied, it truly is a wonder I didn't wink out of existence with all the contradictions.
So after a few broken tile (been 18 years since I last tiled) me and my son got the floor tiled.
So without further ado..........TADA!!!!
I almost can walk in there without the willys. I still have to wipe it down tomorrow but was too anxious to wait to post.
Huge difference eh?
Now I have to install this manly sophisticated sink.
Also found at HD for only 49 dollars. Do I sound like a commercial? Sorry just love finding great deals.
So hopefully I will have another post real soon!
It looks really nice!
