Tiling the Entryway

Tiling my entryway was always in the plans when I picked-up the house. Originally it was more of a long-term idea, but after all the carpet was ripped up and I pulled off the kitchen tile without any major issues I figured now was much better than later.

Before: worn blue carpet from previous owners.

Before: The boys removing the carpet several months ago.

Before: The shoe-tying bench told me how far the tile needed to go.

During: I laid all the tile out dry to make my cuts.

Before: Entryway closet to be tiled also.

During: Didn't get as many pictures this time because I was working solo.

During: Everything laid, w/o grout.

After: Grouted & cleaned, shoe-tying bench ready for action.

After: Another angle

Project Queue:
  • Clean everything again to get ready for carpet.
  • Carpet, which is the first thing that I'm having someone else do, so it should go quick, right?
  • Finally move furniture into carpeted living/dining rooms (this one is pretty big for me)
  • Get bathrooms up to 100%...or 85% at LEAST.
  • Kitchen Countertops
