Well I think watching all those HGTV shows with my wife paid off. I have never installed tile flooring before, and we wanted to tear out the carpeting in our master bathroom. First I painted out bathroom and bedroom, then... So I watched a little more HGTV and then went to work, and this is what came out.

This border I put around the entrance ways to the closet, toilet room, shower, and of course it os between the bedroom and bathroom!

I am installing laminent wood flooring in our bedroom hopefully this coming weekend. The wood color is called, Brazilian Cherry. I have never done this before either, but if it comeso out like the tile I'll be a very happy man! And of course I saved over $4,000.00 in labor costs by doing both myself!
