Stay tuned for that.

Actually, I may have gone a little overboard on the tile when I was designing this room.I was a little bit like a kid in a candy store!.

We started out by choosing a shiny white subway tile to go all around the room, halfway up the wall.We used the beveled version so it would have more of a historical feel and fit in with our old farmhouse.On top of that we ran a little strip of marble mosaic tiles in a brick pattern and topped it off with a chair rail, also made out of tile.

I also got pretty excited about the whole marble thing and decided that the whole wall behind the vanity would be amazing if we did a marble mosaic in a herringbone pattern.Well, that sounds easy enough until you get to the edges and realize that you need to figure out a way to cut each individual teeny tiny tile into a little mini 1/4 inch triangle with the tile saw.

I’m just lucky that Chris specializes in ridiculously meticulous tasks like that!… and about 20 straight work hours later, we had a tiled wall!.

The floors were also a bit of a finicky tile because of their giant size.As it turns out, I’ve been wearing them for pretty much everything, all the time, always, and they’ve been really great to have for walking the dog through the muddy fields around our house, for.

, for early mornings when the grass is still soaked with dew.Basically so many of the rural lifestyle scenarios that we face out here everyday.

But that gets messy.My hunter boots aren’t the perfect, shiny, Pinteresty outfit boots anymore, but I do need to keep them clean so I can run into town when I need to without looking like a crazy mud-monster..
