New tile

Well I just bought new tile for the bathroom from edenmosaictile.com. I hope it gets here before next weekend, because I am going to pull out the wall tile in there after work this week. I want to have it completely done by the end of the weekend so I don’t have to worry about it anymore. I made sure that it is exactly what I wanted and the right colors as well. I will be happy when I finish this bathroom up.

I really like doing the work myself on the house, because I can feel a certain amount of pride in it. Not many women will do the DYI stuff themselves. They typically let their boyfriends and husbands do it. Well, not me. Unless it is something I cannot possibly do or requires permits from a licensed contractor, I do it all myself. My father taught me to be self reliant and so I am. Have a great day everyone.

Totally redone

My brother owns his own contracting company and I haven’t been to his office in a long time. I really haven’t had a reason to go over that way, but he has been raving about the new look for his office, so I went to see what all the fuss was about. It was amazing. I totally love what he did with it. He found these stainless steel tiles to use on the walls about halfway up and then put glass block above that. I didn’t even know they made stainless steel tiles. I honestly didn’t believe him when he said that he had put them in. I thought he was pulling my leg.

I wonder if I could incorporate that into my kitchen somewhere? Maybe I could put it as the back of the stove. You ladies know what I am talking about. That wall behind your stove that gets all of the splatter from cooking is what I am thinking about changing. Stainless steel tile would really look good there and would be so easy to clean and I wouldn’t have to worry about scrubbing paint off the wall when I clean it. I am going to love that.
