Tile Selection

I had so much fun picking out tile the other day!  I have to admit I was kind of dreading it.  I was afraid I would walk in and be overwhelmed with choices.  You could very easily!!  I had a couple of pages from magazines of bathrooms and kitchens that I liked and brought them with me.  The designer I worked with was wonderful and just made it completely stress free.  I had no problem picking out everything including grout in under an hour!!  I knew I wanted to stay fairly neutral in the tile color but wanted a pattern/texture.  She let me bring home samples to show my husband and to help with paint selection.  If you click on the pictures below it should give you an enlarged view.   I hope it will be within my budget!

I must say that I have always heard how stressful it is building your own home and we have not found that to be the case.  I think it helps to do your homework and have an idea of what you like.  I think so far the hardest part for us has been deciding on a floor plan and the exterior brick. I hope I'm not jinxing myself!
