New Ceramic Tile



A week ago, we experienced some water damage from the laundry room into our family room. Since this had occurred three years ago, we made the decision to move the laundry area into the garage to prevent further mishaps and damage to the new berber carpet in the family room.



Once the laundry room was vacant, I decided to turn the area into a walk-in pantry, a much-needed space in this small 15oo square foot home. In preparation for California Closets coming in next week to measure the space and build out the pantry, we decided to hire a contractor to put down a ceramic tile floor in that room and at the bottom of the stairs leading into the garage. The colors are beautiful, and we enjoyed working with the contractor (he was born and raised in Russia).


The tile floor and grout is dry this morning, so now I am prepping the walls of the old laundry room and will paint them a subtle yellow hue--"Straw". It's our favorite paint color, discovered at Seabrook when staying in a home there, and have used it in our family room and master bedroom.



Stay tuned for the Pantry Progress!
