Tile going up!!

Here is a quick update on our bathroom remodel. We order new tile, which took a long time to come in. While waiting on the tile, I painted and put up the new light. Below are some pictures.

Our new light! A major issue with the old bathroom is that there was no light over the sink. We decided that a track light was an easy solution to this problem. While shopping for lights we realized that a lot of track lighting looks dated. We also realized that the electrical for the light was not centered in the room. All our problems were solved when we found this light. This picture is looking toward the sink wall. The other end of the light only has two globes, fixing the not centered problem.

I finally started putting up the wall tile today!! Remember, this is the wall behind the sink. I covered the vanity with a towel to protect it, but the tile looks great with the marble vanity! I have only put two rows of tile up, and have three left. Its really exciting!

Close up of the tile. Can you tell where the seams are?? (If you can don't tell me). I went to Home Depot to buy tile spacers, but they did not having any that were the right size. I bought some and tried to make them work, but I had to eye-ball it in the end. I think I did a pretty good job for my first time!

I am not sure why, but some of the glass tile are tilted. They were like this before putting them on the wall, so I am trying to be happy with it.

Here is a close up of the problem we are having with the size of the tile. There is a gap between the tile and the side wall. The gap looks rather large here, but in reality it is a little larger than the space between the tiles. I placed the tile so there is a similar gap at the other wall as well. Once I get the grout in I am hoping the gaps will not be as noticeable.

What I have learned: Tiling is hard!
