450 12X12 tiles!
This is the tile for the Master Bathroom upstairs and The Boy's bathroom which is upstairs as well. It's really not as yellow as it appears here, it's more of a sand color. We opted for the lighter color upstairs as apposed to the darker color we picked for the downstairs kitchen, hall and bathroom because it's not as bright upstairs and the darker tile would make the rooms seem smaller and not as bright.
Depending on the budget, after all is done, I'll probably use this same tile in our Laundry room which is also upstairs. This is only if there's money left over.
This is the tile we chose for the kitchen and the downstairs bathroom and hallway. It too looks a bit yellow here and it's not. It's a mocha color with nice swirls in it. It really POPS against the stainless steal appliances. We are going to lay this in the kitchen in a diamond shape instead of the laying them all square side by side. I think it will really make it look a lot more "fancier!" LOL
I feel like we should have tiled both floors with the same tile, however the darker tile just didn't look right upstairs and the lighter tile didn't look as elegant downstairs. I think I watch to much HGTV where they say everything should be the same. Screw HGTV, I'm going with my personal taste and what we think looks good! LOL I didn't mean screw HGTV, I still love them and am hoping I can be on one of their renovation shows. If you're reading this HGTV, my backyard needs a massive make-over!
Hopefully we will be able to start the Master Bath the weekend after Valentines Day. We are just too busy these next few weekends to have it all done.
No we are not doing it ourselves, but we have connections to a tile guy who's amazing. So we are super excited!!!!

Love it! Looks very natural. That's what we have in our bathrooms, not exactly the same, but that's what it looks like. :)
Love it! It'll look great! My hubby tiled our kitchen a couple of years ago and we still love it.
What do you all use to clean the tile? steam cleaners?
Yeah! And no I do not think the tile upstairs and downstairs needs to be the same. You should take some before and after pictures!!
Happy early birthday! :) I will be the big 30 in October.
oooo Can't wait to see it all finished!! We put those tiles but they look like wood, in the lakehouse and it looks really nice. I use white vinegar on a paper towel to clean it. Happy Birthday fellow Aquarian!
Wow they are all nice. Good luck. I am glad you have some help.
How exciting!! And Happy Birthday wishes too!!
I love the before and after of remodeling, the during not so much.
When you are done can you come and tile my bathrooms pleeeaase.
Crap forgot about tax season. I hope I can find everything
I like both colors very much. My house would not be approved by HGTV. But I live here and have no intentions of selling it any time soon so who cares.
Have a great weekend!
I love the tile and can't wait to see it when it's finished! Happy Birthday tomorrow early! Big hugs! :o)
Looks nice! Love the colors.Happy Birthday Lisa!
Love the tile!
We're going to start a kitchen renovation soon but haven't decided on the flooring yet...that tile is looking really nice!
I love the tile! It will look so nice when it's done I'm sure.
Yeah, I use a steam cleaner for my tile (and hardwood and laminate wood floors) - it's awesome!!! :)
I just finished The Help last week and I so loved it! Did you read it yet?
Yay for new tile! I can't wait to see what it looks like once it's down!
