"Daly" Projects

The Bakers are getting ready for *work weekend* in a few weeks - a few of the items we hope to get done are:

*new flooring in bathroom
*tile in shower
*new flooring in kitchen
*ceiling panels in bathroom
*organize laundry room / storage unit

JD & I have never had to pick out tile, flooring, etc... so it has been difficult to narrow down what we like. It's also hard for me to see a tile & imagine how it would look in my home, making me very gun shy to commit to anything.
Here are some items that we think we like:


slate flooring in the kitchen - this is supposed to be durable & easy to care for



I like the clean lines in the above bathroom - but maybe use the larger tiles in the shower?



I really like the texture & the warmth of the limestone in the shower above



beadboard ceiling? Yes, please!!






I like the look of the patterned tiles in the these last two bathrooms : classic with a twist

Last weekend JD & I went to Home Depot with my parents to check out some options for the bathroom. We agreed that we wanted to keep with the current color scheme {grey walls; chocolate brown, grey-blue, & white accents}.

Here are some pictures that I took of what I *think* we're going to do in our bathroom {sorry for the poor quality... used the cell phone camera}:

I recently saw a bathroom reno where the people used penny round tile for the floor - I really liked the way it turned out, & it made me think about doing something a little different with the flooring in our bathroom. Here's some tile that we found at a pretty good price - we are planning to use dark grey grout to make the shapes *pop*:




Here is a picture of the shower tile, accent tile, & flooring all together:



Here is a close up of the accent tile in our shower:




More to come as we finalize our choices & start working on the house!
