Kitchen tiles are in!

Straight? Diamond? Straight? Diamond? Straight? Diamond? Straight?

Sean and I spent about an hour one night laying out the kitchen tiles and trying to figure out if we wanted a straight or diamond pattern. First we just laid out the tiles... and couldn't decide. Then we laid out more tiles and put up boxes on the side to simulate what it'll look like with cabinets... and still couldn't decide. Then we stood in the middle and pretended to be cooking and seeing what the tiles look like when we're using the kitchen... and still couldn't decide.

We kept on flipping back and forth, back and forth. We like the clean lines of straight, but hated the red carpet look. We liked how diamond made the room seem larger and broke up the straight lines of the room, but hated how your eyes just bounce around and can't figure out where to land.




After sleeping on it, we decided to go with straight. It looks fab!! I'm really happy with our decision :)

  • They both looked good, but I would have gone with straight too.

    Progress is being made. You must be so excited!
