Tiling really did take days, but it turned out awesome!  We wanted to pick something classic that would look great for years as we have no desire to remodel the bathroom any time soon after this. So subway tile it is! To make the task a lot easier, Seth had the wonderful idea of using mosaic subway tile, still gives us the look we were going for while cutting no less than half the hours of work needed. To contrast we went with a really large dark grey tile for the floor, I really like how it looks together.

Once the tile started going in it actually started to look like we were making progress.  Before tiling a lot of work had gone into the bathroom, but nothing we actually get to see! Sub floor, plumbing, wires, cement board, all necessary but all gets covered up.

Putting in the subway tile took a couple days.  As renovations go, every time we’d get a good rhythm going something would happen. Like causing a water leak in the shower, or realizing our tile cutter is not in fact big enough to cut our over sized tile. But little by little it started to come together.

The important part about finishing the tile was the plumber could finally hook up the plumbing to the tub! One step closer.
