We have now bought the tile. I'm deciding on the schlutter and I think that I might be leaning towards black at this point. While far from a prefect representation, I've been able to mock up a few on ChatGPT.

Under cabinet lighting can be great. We have that at our current house (though I don't really use them that much)."I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

I am glad you removed the old gray tiles. I have something like that right now (not my choice) and I really don't like it.Originally posted by MartyFunkhouser View PostI think that once this is done, I will also look into installing some under the cabinet lighting, as I think it will help make the room brighter and show up some of the details in the tile.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different.

Not only did they look bad, it was poorly installed. You can see from the picture how they left an exposed edge on the tile. I also really don't understand when they installed the tile why they didn't remove the black backing on the counters. I think with this change, I'll be happier with the counter tops. I'd love to replace them and the sink, but I don't see that happening anytime soon.Originally posted by falafel View Post

I think the next major project that we would be looking at on the interior would be replacing the front door. We are going to have to pain the exterior eventually, but we will probably wait until the HOA complains about that before doing it.
I have one picture of the work in progress just to confirm the grout spacing with only about 3 tiles installed, and I'm excited to see what it looks like when I get home from work.As I lead this army, make room for mistakes and depression

Just need to do the grout now. I'm really happy with the results. I did find out that we overbought the tile by an entire box. We got 4 boxes of tile and only still had some left after only 3 boxes.As I lead this army, make room for mistakes and depression

It looks really good. I do think that I need some under cabinet lighting because there is kind of a blue tone to the tile from the black countertops. The kitchen does feel a lot lighter and actually feels a little bigger as well. Now, to save up some money to get rid of these counter tops.
