The Sun Room is Finally Tiled

Okay, I have no pictures to show off all of my hard work on the sun room, but I have to make a record that the floor is complete! Kevin and the boys went to Hartsville for a week and I stayed home because we have many unfinished projects around the house that need to be completed, plus I had to work. My goal was to tile the sun room while the kids were gone. When I watched DIY, it looked so easy so I figured I could do it as easily as it looked. Well after taking many trips to Home Depot and spending far more than I planned, the tile floor has been installed. I must say that it took me a lot longer than I had planned (they make it look so easy and quick on DIY), and now I have started the painting! The tile looks good (a few errors), however I did not measure to see if I would have enough of the tile that we had on hand. I did run out, however, luckily I started in the middle and worked my way out. I went with a darker tile for the borders and it looks like I deliberately created it that way. Each night when the kids go to bed I have started painting the sun room. Hopefully I will be done by next week.
