Tile in the Kitchen

I posted a quick update last night, but didn’t take any pictures. I took a couple this morning once we moved the refrigerator back into its “hole”. Click to see 2 pictures in the extended section.

Meanwhile, today is going to be another busy day. Tim is working from home again, and after lunch, we’re going to start on the grout. Going to be a long job. Grout is easy to apply, but very messy. It takes both of us several passes to get it in, get it sponged up from the tiles but at the same time being careful not to take it out of the grout hole, and then getting it cleaned and buffed off the tiles before it hardens. Tedious work. Cross your fingers and wish us luck and lots of energy and patience! 🙂

Here’s what my kitchen looks like this morning… as good as it looks now, it’s going to look so much better with the grout! We found it made a big difference in the guest bathroom, we couldn’t get over how much better it looks with the grout!! 😀

    Wow! Nice job!
    I think you could get a second job if you needed one Timmy! Or I would let you put it in my upstairs bedrooms since you are so into it, I wouldn’t want to disappoint you by running out of work!
    Grout makes all the difference in the world and it’s going to be really nice when all done. It is cold on your feet though on winter mornings. 🙂
