The tile actually looks fabulous and I think you will agree in time. I think this is a case of having so much time to think about it after choosing it that your mental picture of the tile morphed into something else. It looks really really good! V
Its definitely growing on me; I think that I just am surprised at how varied the color is. Four of the five colors are supposed to simply be tones of white. Its just that next to each other, you really notice the different colors. I did imagine in my head something much much subtle. Its nice though. It just totally changes the look of our flat, I think. Now I actually am thinking that I need to change the beige and cream hall paper for something aqua. Finding the right paper will the be hard part, I think that hanging it should be an afternoon of work for my fav handy man, B. Its amazing how there is always another project to do! (Poor B)
Born in the Midwest, where I grew up to be a typical golden haired cheerleader/class president/most likely to succeed. And then I said, its not enough. So I ran away to boarding school where I learned to be a true global citizen, have a conscience, and look beyond the superficial to see the commonalities that unite us all, which basically means that I got fat, stopped dying my hair and shaving my legs, and- I admit it- wore some flannel. But then I came to Paris and saw the error of my ways (as far as personal hygiene was concerned) and met the love of my life. After an all too brief love-affair with Scotland (where I also did a bit of studying and got myself a degree) I returned to Paris where I now live. I tried a few different careers, none of which took, and so here I am, a stay-at- home mom to a gorgeous little girl named Ella, waiting for the next thing to come along and grab my attention. And also trying to live as big as I can while I am young (and still a little bit golden...)
