    Thank you! It was a challenge and this shower was once part of a closet in the hall behind..you have to get creative when working in small places!

    The tile is from the The Tile Shop, the subway is Lansdale Medley 3 x 6 inch. The boxes are a total assortment of colors. Check your boxes, as at our local store you are allowed to take back boxes and someone had taken out all the good ones and left us with a box of pure white ones!!

    Thank you so very much! I have bought tile from the tile shop. Were the side walls just like a plain carrera marble? Very light and a subtle contrast. Love the idea of the 2 different tiles. I was thinking of doing solid slabs on the side walls of a carrera type marble. (easier to clean with no grout) I really appreciate you giving me the name of the tile I will check it out to do our master bath project this fall.

    The side walls are Carrera Gris from The Tile Shop. It's their ceramic version of the stone and amazingly realistic! Slab is a great way to go, i have also done showers in Corian to eliminate grout lines, just make sure your bath can take the weight of slabs. Thanks, Susan

    Thank you so very much for all your help. My husband agreed about the weight factor of a slab. We will certainly check out the Carrera Gris tile or corian. Thanks for sharing your expertise with us! Lucy
