Tile Is Down, Well Almost

I took half a day off yesterday to lay tile in the downstairs bathroom. All-in-all it went pretty smooth except...
A few years ago I laid white hex tile in the bathroom of our other bungalow, and subsequently had about 5 square feet left over. So when I measured the square footage for this this bathroom I assumed that I wouldn’t need any overage since I had those leftover tiles. Well, in about the last 3 sq ft I ran out and began to use the leftover tiles. Apparently there are different versions of 1” white hex tiles, because they were NOT the same, even though they had been purchased from the same source 3 years ago.
Ugh, so today Kristin is driving to M&M Tile up in Tontitown to purchase 3 sq ft of tile to finish the bathroom. Meanwhile I’ll go ahead and start the grout so that we can get the claw foot tub installed this week.
