tile schmile

Good grief. OK, so we went back to Lowe's and complained about the tile grout and the helper chick said, "did it lighten up?" Yeah, you could say that. So she recommended an acid cleaner and stiff brush. Ummm, OK, I'm game. Bright and early Saturday morning I started the arduous task of cleaning out the holes in the tile. After an hour and 3 tiles I said, out loud, loudly, screw this! And back to Lowe's we went. I got grout colorant, which is what I wanted to begin with. Saturday night I was back in the bathroom on my hands and knees coloring the grout lines and speckles. It was A LOT more work than I anticipated and I like to color! I didn't get it finished until Sunday afternoon. The end result makes me happy though.

This is how it was supposed to look -


This is how it dried -

This is colored -

Now we can move on to the vanity and toilet! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
