    Allison, your tile, in the kitchen, is that peel and stick or the old fashion kind, with grout? Steve and I are thinking about doing some peel and stick but wasn’t too sure.

    1. Jay Goble says:

      We used the peel and stick kind. Glad that is what you and your hubby decided to go with it too! Can’t wait to see photos!

  2. Thanks a bunch Michelle! We recentlly changed out the flooring in the kitchen too. It’s one of those projects that keeps on going!

  3. I love your craft space! Its so fresh and inviting!!! What color green pastel did you use??

    1. Hello Angela! We are just now seeing your comment, as it got mixed up in some spam comments. So sorry for the delay. The green pastel color we used in the office room was actually a random one we picked at Lowes one day and didn’t save the swatch, and used all the paint. Lesson learned on that one, as we had to go back and try to match it up later on for touch up paint. We have moved to a different house now and I did find a similar color we LOVE called Jasper Stone. We used it in our laundry room as well as on all of our entry doors.
