Tile and Granite

We went out to the granite warehouse today and made some selections for the kitchen, master bath and laundry.  A few weeks ago we made some preliminary selections, but these were our favorites for today.

Kitchen...

Master bath & laundry...

The pictures don't do them justice, the white one has little irridescent sparkles in it and the kitchen one is beautiful, too.

Back at the house, the tile guys have been busy today.  You can tell by the mess in the garage...

and the pile of broken tile scraps.

They have tiled all of the kitchen & harvest room area...

...and were working on the pantry/studio area while we were there.  You might be able to see they've left a path so get out of the studio without having to walk on the freshly set tile.

Here's the master bathroom.

Of course, it's still covered in some icky dust and you can't see the subtle stripes on it.  This view is looking into the laundry, they have the same tile.

More good news...we still had two sconses to pick out for the mud room area & a friend called this morning and had two extra sconces from when she built her house and they were still in the boxes.  She sent me a picture and we're going to use them.  Another score for April saving a penny or two. ;-)
