Anyone need any glass mosaic tile loose in a box? Like 150 square feet of it? It's sitting in boxes and Home Depot buckets in our garage if you do. This was the casualty of our bathroom remodeling project, which I like to call, "1,300 hundred bucks in a box." Let me start by saying that I am obsessive over a few things, one is paint color, the other is tile choice. By day, I pride myself that as a professional lighting, furniture and accessory designer that I instantly know my own mind and can make design decisions at the drop of a hat. But when I get home and have to pick a paint color or a tile for our own home I suddenly become more indecisive than the former head of FEMA. Our house is nearly 100 years old, but my vision for our upstairs bathroom was to bring some Mid Century cool to our vintage bath while at the same time preserving the charm of some of the old fixtures, i.e. the old glorious 6' clawfoot tub and stately pedestal sink. Combine that with my teeny budget and hours upon hours of websurfing and I finally had decided upon a beautiful mosaic glass tile that combined 4 different opaque and translucent shades of white. It would climb the walls and carpet the floor of our sparkling new bath. So I ordered the paper faced tiles online and procured the right kind of mastic as well and slathered with anticipation.Then the trouble began.......
