Tile

We definitely busted our budget when it came to tile, but I think it will be well worth the investment.  Our tile guy, Delbert, was slow but meticulous.  I was afraid it would take six months for good ol' Delbert to git r' dun, but he finally finished and we are thrilled.  We tried to keep things looking like they might have in 1910, but its always a difficult task to stay contemporary without looking strange in a 100 year old house.

Kitchen and utility floors.
The same floors extend to the guest bathroom adjoined to the utility room right off the kitchen.
This is the bathroom we call "Hattie's Bathroom."  If you saw our last house, it's pretty similar to the white subway tile we used previously, in fact 100 square feet are from our last bathroom leftovers!  This time we stopped it part way up the walls with a chair rail at about 36 inches.

Just a reminder that this was what it used to look like...
This is our master shower.  We went with white marble subway from floor to ceiling. 
We went with a white penny round (not yet installed) for the floors.
