## Community Q&A

**Q: Where is this tile manufactured and where can it be purchased?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: No problem I will get them out early this week. I will also include a freight quote to your area Please send your name and estimted date of your remodel to lauriec.battstile@gmail.com thanks !

**Q: Can this be used for a floor in a shower? Or will it be too slick?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I want to put it in the shower floor, but am afraid it will be to slick. I saw this in person and it is not all smooth, so maybe it will? Thank you.

Corrie Smith

A: Hi Corrie, That's a great question. I would not recommend using these on a shower floor, However you could use a natural stone flat pebbles and remove some of pebbles from each sheet and replace them with some of the pieces from this mosaic. That way you can still incorporate this look for your shower floor!!

**Q: Help me select a backsplash** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Really like the ones with the different size tiles but am worried that the big ones are too large for the surface. adding pictures of the floors and cabinets to help with the selection Thanks ALL in advance.

**Q: Need to Update My Fireplace** *(in Design Dilemma)*

I would like to update the fireplace in my family room. I have a budget of $1,500.00. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome. My thought is to also shorten the windows on both sides of the fireplace and add built in book shelves.

A: I also have a couple of ideas for you!
