We chose a lighter color in this bathroom because it is only on the walls. In the master bath where the tiles are on the floor, we chose a darker gray to help mask dirt. After 9 months there are a few traffic patterns beginning to appear, but should disappear when we give it some elbow grease. Otherwise, love, love, love them.

And we LOVE the look of the penny rounds, get tons of great comments. Our master bath has the penny rounds on the floor and yes the grout does get a tad dirty, but overall has been really easy to keep up. I will post photos of that one. I need to get back on the BLOG and get posting since the house is pretty much done! I'll find out what kind of grout we used and reply. Thanks Hi, the upkeep really isn’t that bad.

Do they require a lot of maintenance? In other words, would they be a good choice for people who really just don't love to scrub tile? Many thanks!

I love your pictures and was wondering if I could use one temporarily (with full credit & links to your web page). I will take down the site on September 11th after the final has been graded.

We did use a white 1/4" finish trim where the tile meets the wall. But where the tiles butt the tub, we just finished it with the grout and it looks nice. But, I would recommend that anywhere it is a hard edge you may want to use trim. Hey Jeremy, thanks for the kind words. We did use a white 1/4″ finish trim where the tile meets the wall.

We're seriously thinking about putting in a cobalt blue penny round backsplash in our kitchen. It looks like you aren't really using any border tiles? I like the look of that but people keep telling me I need to have some sort of border where the tile ends on either side. Any recommendations? Most of the backsplash will be butted up against countertops, windows, and cabinets, but the sides will be open in a few places. Love the new bathroom..
