Help with coordinating Shower tile, floor tile and granite
Comments (1)That's pretty tile. How about doing a border in a grey color around the perimeter and this tile in the field of the bathroom floor? You could do a warm light bronze-ish color for the granite, similar to the color of the tile in the bottom right of this image, or do a silvery color granite. I personally would want to choose a very quiet, solid-color granite if at all possible because this tile is rather busy....See More1960's Split-level Kitchen - Design - Process - Reveal

Comments (27)We are replacing the tile due to cracking and other issues. Updating both our bathrooms for resale in foreseeable future (empty nesters). Our hallway bath will be black and white basket weave on the floor and white subway in tub area. Very excited about this as our first house in 1988 had the original black and white and we have always loved that look. We had no idea it was "in" until we went tile shopping and of course Pinterest ha . We found these two hex patterns. The one on the left is standard hex. The one on the right is marble ( I assume it's real ??) The second one is clearly a nicer and thicker tile, but what about the marble? Is this the best of both worlds or still not right to go with the blue vintage tile? I am not crazy about the size of the tiles. Would go with penny tile as suggested by CP, but no go for hubby....See More1960s bathroom refresh
Comments (9)@michiganmama: I just used BM Beacon Gray paint but that might be a little bit too blue for you. Take a look at BM Silver Mist, BM First Snowfall, and maybe BM Marilyn’s Dress. If you search these colors on the Benjamin Moore site you can click the options for shades and similar colors. Maybe thia will help narrow things down before you go to the paint store for chips or samples. I am seeing the sink as more teal than gray/blue, so my focus is on the floor where I see gray. If you decide to change the sink, go for an undermount white. Regarding the vents, I took them down, lightly sanded, got them really clean, and spray painted (metal paint from Lowe’s). Hope that helps!...See MoreMichelle G.
