A great look to consider is tiling your bathroom walls. Tiling the walls will help bring a dramatic look into the bathroom and also give a great focal point when guests enter. There are a lot of tile options when you think about starting. You can use small pencil tiles to give a nice accent to your counter and mirror section, try running them vertical to give an interesting twist and also heighten the wall.
Large tiles can be a great look if you’re covering the entire wall, usually they are rectangular and look best when put tightly together. If you want to bring some color and inconsistency to your wall try mixing darker colored tiles into the pattern. This will give depth and move the eye from section to section.
Grout comes in all variety of color. White grout works well with almost any tile and can pull random colored tile together nicely. You can also try using a darker or lighter shade of grout to give a little color boost to your wall. If you are going to use a brown tile try picking a grout two shades dark or lighter to give a little accent to your wall.
In the winter months homes are heated and the air is dry, wood flooring then starts losing its moisture. When this happens, thin gaps can appear between planks. This is normal, and you should be prepared for it to occur. Once indoor heating is turned off humidity levels will raise again, most of the gaps will close up.
During warm and humid months, indoor humidity can rise up to 90%. Wood absorbs moisture from the air and expands as a result. Even just a few days of exposure to high humidity can cause wood flooring to cup. When a wood board cups, the edges are at a higher level than its center. Cupping can also happen when spilled water is absorbed by the wood. Once cupping has occurred, it takes a while for the wood to restore its internal moisture and flatten out.
