Kris C asked:


I have a 1600 sq. ft house, with one color in the family room, one color in the living room, and one color in each of the two bathrooms. Is there a limit to how many different shades of floor tile will look okay? We are thinking of tiling our entranceway and hallway, but we don’t know if we should use a different color, or the same color as the living room. Please help with suggestions.

Babydoll asked:


Should the wall tile touch the floor? OR
Should I leave enough space for the floor tile to go under the wall tile? OR
Should they meet at each edge of the tiles?

I dont’ know the best way to do this? I’m tiling up the wall about 3.5 ft and laying a new tile floor.

I’m about to lay my floor tile. Should I just center my first tile and work around it?
