Good choice, Lauren. It will certainly have a more regal look to it with that finish. If you were following the trend in the 70s when you had that house, then your house probably has linoleum flooring. Most houses in the 70s had linoleum flooring.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.bobscarpet.com/contentpage.aspx?Id=9536" rel="nofollow">Kathy Carbone</a>Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05887147021562765601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8030308239398272700.post-14175479300505150072012-03-24T13:41:46.811-04:002012-03-24T13:41:46.811-04:00GREAT PICS:) I really like your blog and will happ...GREAT PICS:) I really like your blog and will happily follow.<br />I wish you a lovely weekend:)<br /><br />LOVE Maria at inredningsvis.se<br />(Sweden)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8030308239398272700.post-21218003140792917872012-03-24T10:58:24.670-04:002012-03-24T10:58:24.670-04:00Love your idea using the darker colour with pencil...Love your idea using the darker colour with pencil thin grout lines.

Congrats! I thought I knew the room so well, but you were holding back! (Which I now understand due to your post about magazines preferences for unpublished photos.)

I have had the dilemma of either choosing dark grout or white. I also agree that it looks better pencil thin. I'm so worried they will tile it in thick and it will look even more dated than it is now! I love the vision for your space. I will have to check out this tile source too!

And I assume, unlike white, those grout lines will never look stained or dirty! Please tell us how it works out...<br /><br />My favorite subway tile is handmade here in New York State, up near the Adirondack Mountains: http://www.lesperancetileworks.com/c24/Field-Tile-c29.html<br /><br />Really amazing work at L'Esperance Tile Works!
