Tiling is one task that really needs your whole attention, and finishing it is a great relief. That's two down and more to go! I haven't read the whole renovation progress, but I hope it's all going well as you plan it. ---><a href="http://www.tradesquad.co.uk/index.php?type=content&pageid=2" rel="nofollow">Helene</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10114269022103636471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1239260988309861926.post-77944483018152618912013-02-10T12:22:42.157-08:002013-02-10T12:22:42.157-08:00That tile is great!That tile is great!aimymichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13413414194266919778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1239260988309861926.post-3335280768600321522013-01-27T19:09:47.698-08:002013-01-27T19:09:47.698-08:00Oh my!

Looove the shape of the tile, it is just enough of a different spin to make it unique but still classic. Encouraging to hear that you guys did it your self too, with help;) I know nothing about grout..but I always thought too dark grout makes it look like its dirty all the time. And white might actually get dirty too easily. What about a soft light gray?Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05459211820940379244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1239260988309861926.post-78538794887824069802013-01-24T06:17:03.262-08:002013-01-24T06:17:03.262-08:00It looks so good!

The extending counter is such a good idea. <br />So, I know everyone is on this dark grout with white tile bandwagon, but I just can't get on board. I could list all the reasons I hate it, ha!, but I'll such say my vote is a resounding, white.<br />Every time you post your kitchen progress, it gets me riled up to want to start in on ours. I went to Ikea again to walk through and check out the cabinet displays. I think I've finally committed in my head to the white Adel. Now, if I could just remember where I planted that dang money tree...Mindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07247379600555185331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1239260988309861926.post-76027581149865329132013-01-23T07:16:45.054-08:002013-01-23T07:16:45.054-08:00I love your backsplash!

That could look sweet!

Maybe a light gray grout would make the tile stand out a bit more?? I'm sure you have tons of inspiration pics with both color options...you really can't go wrong. Either way that tile is going to be the star of the show.
