The grout is important for this over time. Epoxy or urethane is essential.

Thank you. I do love the tile. Just hoping it will last style wise. I will definitely look at epoxy grout per your suggestion. I am wondering if I should use a true white vs off white.

I'd match the white of the tile. Epoxy will stay that way. And you'll have a more monolithic

Thank you! The white color is a little off-white and I think you’re right that will look better

Thank you! I know it is trending, but I do love a lot of the new pattern tiles and this one in particular I do really love. So I like the way you’re thinking 😀

What do you think of the striped curtain with a patterned foot? I know things I like but have trouble knowing how to put them together. Thank you!!

It looks okay, but I'd probably prefer a simple white waffle curtain, or a white cotton or linen one with a double embroidered line on the sides and bottom.

Maybe something like this?

Thank you! I love the ticking stripe and the one that the link took me too. I also do like the idea of a nice white one

I had no idea that the floor tile was on trend and think it looks like a retro nod. So I guess I already thought it was timeless! I like the Hall and Perry tassel curtain you linked to. I think the varied width of the lines is really nice and makes it feel like more of a pattern, which is skillfully combined to the pattern of the tile. You might be better at this than you think you are!

The floor is fun - if you love it, I say go for it - the shower curtain reads a little ”Target Boho” for me (just a personal opinion) i think ticking would better match the floor’s classic feel, FWIW - there are several seller on Etsy who will make a custom shower curtain so the length and width is just right - this is a soft black ticking

Thank you that’s a great suggestion! I like a little boho but am not going for that sort of look. I did notice curtains come in longer lengths and was wondering about that. Seems like it would make the room look larger maybe. Love that bathroom pic too!

In a bathroom of that size I will advise you to go kinda wild with your design.

Fir me the grout match is mandatory. I'd contact the manufacturer for recommendations. Some epoxy white grout has been reported to yellow. The right grout is important.

For me that floor is too busy to be timeless . I think timeless means I will love it a long time so I use 12 x24 porcealin tile on both bathroom floors and shower walls . Plain matching grout and then if i want a bit of pattern the back splash that can bechanged down the road easily. I really dislke any white grout it all discolors over time . I think the plain tile lets you have sme fun with the shower curtain and again can be changed easily

Thank you everyone. I will match the grout to the tile which is a little off white. I really appreciate all the advice from this community ❤️. I do definitely understand Patricia’s comment but for me I really don’t want plain tile. But I get it and makes sense for sure

Not sure why someone thinks the grout needs to be epoxy or urethane. White epoxy will yellow.

Thank you. Another person said that as well so I got regular grout that matches the off white of the tile
