I like the flowers with the wall color but if you are painting it brown the flowers need to go I think you did a wonderful job sponge painting. If you hadn't said anything I wouldn't have known you did it
i think you did a great job actually :) i would leave it to be honest it will look better to ur husband i bet once you finish so PLEASE my opinion leave it and finish the project!!! cant wait to see the finished project. and oh just a thought what about using some gold in it too? mine is kinda similar and what i did is take a craft sponge and gold paint and lightly sponge just enough for a lil accent it looks great in my kitchen and it goes great with the brown but just an idea :)
I like what you did with the paint..it looks good on what you did dear...i would love for you to come to my place and help me pull my house together. I live in Michigan..is that too far?
I would wait it out and pay for the ones you really like recently in my my house we are somewhat redoing our bathroom but beforemy mom did that kind of sponge thing and decoded to buy a new top now if u are really in a crunch for money( which I can understand) just paint all them(not the spongey look just a plain look) and buy some chocalate color decal and put them there and there and it will look better for inexpensive
I think the flowers date your home...and are ugly. I dont think the painting looks bad at all but them again maybe it looks different in person. I wouldnt have noticed it if you hadn't pointed it out. The flowers... well..... you know how they look already ;)
It's hard to see the flowers but then again things sometimes look a bit different on camera than in person. I suggest sponge painting the flowers BUT then painting a different design on top of them to make it even less noticeable, even just a diamond where each flower was or something like that would really update it.
Paint the walls first brown and see how it will look, then if you don't like it you can sponge paint them. From what it looks on the video the tile looks good after you painted them but it is a lot of work that's why i think you should paint the walls first. good luck
I think you should leave it flowers and do the chocolate walls. The brown will make the flowers look better and if you don't like it then try sponging it.
honestly you can hardly notice, painted bit miles better then flowers. Get some tile paint and paint it, you can always the get tile transfers and cut to size - if you are going to paint the wall brown go for little mosiac one in different shades of brown and cream. I think get actual tile paint as everytime you wash your tiles down the paint will come off.
I would live with the flowers until you want to or can replace...I painted tiles before & they ended up peeling & being very hard to clean when they got dingy/dusty/dirty...the flowers are not that bad, I would just save yourself the time of painting them & then replace with new tiles that you truly loved...just my opinion though!
I just thought of something I know the smart tiles didn't work. But what if you had my decAl lady make you something custom to fit each tile? I mean you could take a picture of the not flowered tile and have her turn it into a sticker. She prints on exterior quality Vinal and if it's custom made then the grout and everything would match! Side note though the paint doesn't look bad!
hey, have you thought about wall stickers/decals to cover up the weird flowers? You could choose a nicer motif or letters... ;-) They are easy to apply and peel of easily as well!!
They make like, that cool paint that's specific for tiles. I don't really know much about it, I'm sorry, but I've seen it on a bathroom re-do video and it seemed really cool. I'm sure if you googled it, you'd find it or something similar. Just a suggestion. I know you're probably way tired of painting! Haha.
oh, and if there is a flower on EVERY single tile, maybe you could leave every other one blobbed? and do one row of tiles every other flower and then underneath a blank blobbed row and then the next row down every other one again so the flowers aren't overwhelming? are they every single tile? just another thought...
I would paint first! You may like the flowers in a retro sort of way after you paint..they are kinda interesting. Your paint blobs aren't bad..when you got close up you could see the blobbing a little, but like you said not really noticable. PAINT FIRST. Maybe you could paint a few of the flowers whatever accent color you will have in there to tie it in?? I love vlogs like these :)
I love the painted tile! The sponge painting actually does make the tile look like stone (at least that's the way it comes off thru the camera). I would love to see your technique sometime for sponge painting. Every time I have tried it, it just looks like big blobs of paint everywhere.
I also think you should paint the bathroom the color you want..then maybe the flower will look better. the sponge painting looked okay through the camera.. good luck
Have you thought about getting them glazed or buying a kit to do it yourself? Its kind of like getting a bath tub refinished. That way you do not have to spend money for new tile, but get a new look
Paint them you could even add some of the chocolate brown color to the sponge paint to bring in the wall color and maybe just do the whole first row not just every other
Honestly, if you really want to get rid of the flowers, use a belt sander. You should be able to sand the flower away. Get a small jar of polyurethane gloss and it will look as though the ugly flowers were never there. This of course is all in theory. :)
I agree with some other posters about painting the entire top row in an accent color. That way they'll all look really uniform. Honestly, I don't think the painting you did looks bad - I can't even really notice. The painted ones came up looking a bit lighter on camera than the other tiles (but maybe it's just the lighting or my computer). I happen to like the flowers also, but i think little pops of vintage are cute w/the right accessories =). Either way I don't think you can lose =)
I know you said you don't want to spend the time doing them all, but I honestly think that's your best bet. The stone effect looks pretty good from here and if you take the time to do them all (eventually!) the overall effect will look...intentional. IMVHO of course :)
I agree with some of the posts saying, paint the entire top row of tiles in an accent color. I think it could look really nice and very 'on purpose', and one thing about stuff in the bathroom - you spend a lot of time just 'sitting' there looking around, and to me, details in a bathroom are harder to overlook because of that. Lol weird, but true! Anyway, if you do them in an accent color, then you don't have to worry about making them blend. Good luck, let us know what you decide!
i think the painted tiles are WAY better than those ugly flower tiles. then when you paint the wall hang up a bright eye catching picture. no one will ever notice those tiles but you.
Hey iv actully seen this one show were in sted of taking the tile down and get new ones they had a profetional tile painter come in insted so look it up and see if u can do that bye !!!
I couldn't tell thats the tiles were painted, it looked fine. BUT I like the flowers, I think they look a bit 70's and will be cool with chocolate walls, especially with some orange accessories. I get that it's not your thing though. I have pink tiles and a pink bathrooom suite from the 80's (which I do not love!) which I cannot wait to get ripped out.
Ok sis, I like the way the sponge paint looks. But have you thought about just sponge painting the entire row of tiles around the bathroom to add an accent color? A color that will compliment the chocolate brown you are going to put on the wall? It can make a big statement and cover those ugly floral tiles.
Hey chickie I definitely think the painted looks better but I agree with alot of the posters here paint your walls the chocolate brown first then see which looks better before you totally commit to the paint and in the meantime maybe search other options that are cheap or ghetto as you would say. LOL love your posts you've inspired me to do my own channel coming soon........
To mrsprincesslily....I also painted over my mum kitchen cabinets and benchtop cos they were quite ugly too...used a laminate paint which also worked really well. She was overseas at the time - we wanted to surprise her
I would paint over the whole lot, not just the flower ones. A couple of years ago, I did just that to my mums bathroom, with tile paint over flower tiles that were so much uglier than yours. I also painted the bath tub in enamel paint. The bathroom looked so good!
I have the same situation...the kitchen is yellow, with yellow cabinets, and the backsplash in the kitchen looks yellow too - ugh. I don't smell smoke, but there is some minor cigarette smoke on my ceilings, so IDK if the kitchen is *painted* the yellow color, or its cig smoke damage...either way its gross.
all I want to do is paint the whole kitchen white white white, to rid the house of that nasty yellow look. But its so darn expensive to demo the dry wall...so I say paint!!
I was going to suggest for you to paint them, but I really love those little flowers though. Ours are plain white, which I hate. Hey?!? Maybe I could paint them?!?! Oh girl, you are given me ideas over here! LOL! Good Luck! LOVE your videos btw! <3 Dig <3
What are you talking about they're pretty leave them for now until you know you can afford to buy better ones, the design is adorable id love to have that seriously
I mean at least be happy it's not like chickens or fruits or weird things lol
The wall color actually compliments it beautifully :)
Your bathroom is better than mine, I have salmon (ugh!) pink textured tile and a pink pedestal sink and a white bathtub and toilet... so UGLY, and I cannot change it because we rent. You go girl and paint that tile, I know I would ;)
I like the idea with covering them up with squares of wall paper. There's some really funky designs out there that would look awesome with chocolate brown.
As long as the painted tiles look good in person (on camera they look just fine!) I like the painted tiles better. nice and neutral and then when you add decor you don't have to match it to the flowers :)
dont think the flowers are ugly lol infact if your painting the walls chocolate brown i would think it would give it a nice vintage feel. OR have you thought about colouring in the flowers in prettier colours once your walls are painted. Could look really shabby Chic!
They have bathroom wall stickers you could cover them up with that. Or you can cut our a square of wall paper you like to cover each of the flower tiles... Let us know what you decide .. Good Luck ! Can't wait to see whatcha do
I didn't mind the flowers, but if you hate them, I say paint! I think if you paint the wall chocolate brown, it is going to draw out the tiles MORE and if you hate them, well....you see the issue :) Good luck!
My honest opinion...paint the entire top row of tiles to keep a cohesive look and cover the flowers you don't care for. Since you are painting the walls chocolate, finding a color in between your chocolate walls and current tiles, would maybe look like it was done on purpose. Hope this helps you. I found this on a blog about painting tile:
First, surface preparation is critical.
The surface must be free of soap film, grout sealers, oil, wax and grease.
I think the flowers look fine. Once you paint the top part brown then you can decide what to do. But for now he flowers don't look bad. You dot want to ruin the tile with the paint.
omg, im sorry but I would totally keep what was there already. it actually doesnt look that bad at all but that paint looks terrible! Live with the flowers, I actully like them with the paint color.
I'm wondering if the paint will peel,crack, or dissolve after shower water hits it on a regular basis,hmmm, I think I would have painted the wall the chocolate brown, lived with that for awhile and you might be surprised the flowers might look better in contrast with the tile and blend the wall and tile colors together. Good Luck and have fun with the new project whatever you decide
Just another thought. You can go over it with bead board (it is cheap and can either be screwed in or glued on) and paint it white. Top it off with 2-3inch molding.
Paint it, you and your hubby are the only ones that are gonna see it b/c its in your master bathroom. So it dosent have to be perfect but it gets rid of the flowers you don't like. So if it was me id paint them. Hope that helps, and you have to post whatever the outcome is!!
I would just keep it until you can totally redo the bathroom. I have the most ugly wheat themed tiles in the shower of our master batha la 1968 but it stays until we can take it all down and start over.
I would leave the flowers and just bare with them for the time being. In the video, I honestly couldn't tell at first that the tiles were painted, but maybe wif I was standing there they'd be noticeable. And I like the flower tiles lol
I like the flowers with the wall color but if you are painting it brown the flowers need to go I think you did a wonderful job sponge painting. If you hadn't said anything I wouldn't have known you did it

As long as the painted tiles look good in person (on camera they look just fine!) I like the painted tiles better. nice and neutral and then when you add decor you don't have to match it to the flowers :)

dont think the flowers are ugly lol infact if your painting the walls chocolate brown i would think it would give it a nice vintage feel. OR have you thought about colouring in the flowers in prettier colours once your walls are painted. Could look really shabby Chic!

They have bathroom wall stickers you could cover them up with that. Or you can cut our a square of wall paper you like to cover each of the flower tiles... Let us know what you decide .. Good Luck ! Can't wait to see whatcha do

I would keep the flowers. They might be okay once the walls are painted.

Honestly I can't tell it's painted. I with you on the flowers ! They gotta go ! Have you tried to sand paper them to get them to come off ?

I didn't mind the flowers, but if you hate them, I say paint! I think if you paint the wall chocolate brown, it is going to draw out the tiles MORE and if you hate them, well....you see the issue :) Good luck!

My honest opinion...paint the entire top row of tiles to keep a cohesive look and cover the flowers you don't care for. Since you are painting the walls chocolate, finding a color in between your chocolate walls and current tiles, would maybe look like it was done on purpose. Hope this helps you. I found this on a blog about painting tile:
First, surface preparation is critical.
The surface must be free of soap film, grout sealers, oil, wax and grease.
Second, use a water based BOND

I think the flowers look fine. Once you paint the top part brown then you can decide what to do. But for now he flowers don't look bad. You dot want to ruin the tile with the paint.

I'm wondering if the paint will peel,crack, or dissolve after shower water hits it on a regular basis,hmmm, I think I would have painted the wall the chocolate brown, lived with that for awhile and you might be surprised the flowers might look better in contrast with the tile and blend the wall and tile colors together. Good Luck and have fun with the new project whatever you decide

Just another thought. You can go over it with bead board (it is cheap and can either be screwed in or glued on) and paint it white. Top it off with 2-3inch molding.

Paint it, you and your hubby are the only ones that are gonna see it b/c its in your master bathroom. So it dosent have to be perfect but it gets rid of the flowers you don't like. So if it was me id paint them. Hope that helps, and you have to post whatever the outcome is!!

I think I would rather do away with the flowers. Do you plan on (you may have mentioned this) sealing the painted ones in some way?

Definitely paint every tile the way you sponged your example. Hubby will hopefully get on board once it is all done...not digging the flowers!

Well done. At least you can live with the painted tile until you are able to spend the time and money on removing the tile all at once.

I would just keep it until you can totally redo the bathroom. I have the most ugly wheat themed tiles in the shower of our master batha la 1968 but it stays until we can take it all down and start over.

I would leave the flowers and just bare with them for the time being. In the video, I honestly couldn't tell at first that the tiles were painted, but maybe wif I was standing there they'd be noticeable. And I like the flower tiles lol
