Kitchen Tile (October, 2020)

When we bought our home, we weren't fond of the tile options they offered for the kitchen, so we asked if we could have it built with no tile, just painted walls.  They said "No Problem".

We originally thought we would have the tile work contracted out, but now that we are back in Arizona, and the Covid pandemic is still going, we have decided to do the tile work ourselves.  For one, it's hard to find contractors right now, and for two, we need something to do that keeps us right here at home. 

It took us awhile to find tile that we liked.  We finally found it at Arizona Tile.  It is called concerto cocoa glossy.  We haven't done much tile work before, so we have been watching lots of youtube videos to get the best technique possible.

We are pleased with the way the kitchen came out.  It gave us some confidence, so now we think we are going to attempt our laundry room as well.  It will be a bigger project, so wish us luck!
