Have some ugly or bland tile flooring in your house but don't have the money or gumption to replace it? Paint is your new best friend! Some elbow grease and a little patience...well, and paint...are all you need for a fresh, new look!
Our front door opens directly into our living room. This little tile entry was just not evoking any warm and fuzzy greetings to me.
Despite the questioning looks I got from my husband...I started out on my journey.
Oh, remember how I said this was a tale of woe?
After much pouting and reconnoitering I went back to square one and redid the whole thing with homemade chalk paint with less in-your-face contrasting colors. Sealed with polyacrylic.
So if at first you don't succeed, don't give up. Have a refreshing adult beverage, pull up your big girl panties and trudge on! Perseverance, my friends.
We both love it now.
Enjoyed the project?
