Tiles Appointment

 Our much awaited appointment happened today.  Our tiles appointment. 

The last appointment that we needed to finish the house which is also one of the most stressful one.  Not the whole experience (as Amanda - our tiles consultant from Beaumont Tiles in Wetherill Park was just a gorgeous gal) ... but the thought that whatever we selected today will forever be part of our home (unless we decided to change it - which is a very expensive change I reckon).

We have visited the tile shop many times but the more we visit it the more we change our choices and the more we get confused ... but today its final and we have signed it so no turning back (we do have 5 days to ponder about it though lol)

With our painted board of Shale Grey and Crisp White skirting, we placed it next to the range that we want for our overall floor... The Heartwood Range - a big 300x600 with a timber look and texture)

with the Heartwood Blonde (MrK didn't like it - but I did, as I find that it emits this warmth overall)

with the Heartwood Eucalypt (the one that we both agreed on so this will be our overall floor - it brightens the whole area)

with the Heartwood Walnut (which we originally liked but after we placed the painted boards, it got scrapped as it was too dark for the area) 

Main bathroom: Valencia Stone White floor then Euphoria Charcoal wall with Mosaic Glass Cora Cream Grey Mix

Ensuite: Belga Charcoal floor then Valencia Stone White Gloss wall with Mosaic Glass Cora Cream Grey Mix (yes we just flipped the main and the ensuite - easy)

 

Patio/front porch: Belga Charcoal.

Kitchen backsplash:  Valencia Stone Grey Gloss laid horizontally with Magellan Grey Grout (which we paid extra for, so it creates an illusion of seamless tiles) The photo does not show justice to the nice veining of this tile which is almost the same shade as our stone benchtop - you can tell we did not put any contrast.

Laundry: Heartwood White floor (but just in case this is not allowed due to its size our alternative is this Belga Charcoal) with Classic Carrara White walls which mimics a marble effect

Hoping that they all come together nicely ...

Thanks for dropping by and see you in our next post
