Half of this was fitting, cutting, grinding, and adjusting tile, then the other half was actually sticking the tile down. Wow. I don&#8217;t want to do a room of that size with 6&#8243; x 6&#8243; tile ever again! If you&#8217;d like to see how it came out, I suggest taking a look at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nuxx.net\/gallery\/kitchen_2004_laundryfloor\/DCP_1427\">this<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nuxx.net\/gallery\/kitchen_2004_laundryfloor\/DCP_1428\">this<\/a>, the odd-angle photo from above <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nuxx.net\/gallery\/kitchen_2004_laundryfloor\/DCP_1429\">here<\/a>, or the whole album <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nuxx.net\/gallery\/kitchen_2004_laundryfloor\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t think I mentioned it before, but I also got the tile laid in the front vestibule, as can be seen <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nuxx.net\/gallery\/kitchen_2004_vestibulefloor\/DCP_1420\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Next is putting the moulding around the laundry room. I think this will be the same tiles stood up on edge&#8230; Then grouting the laundry room to wrap it up and getting it back in working order (not having a laundry tub nor washer and dryer is a big deal). Then grouting the front vestibule, replacing all the moulding in there, and then starting on the kitchen. Ye gods, it&#8217;s a lot of work!<\/p>\n<p>[Crossposted to both <lj user=c0nsumer> and <lj user=saucydwellings>.]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16,11,34],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6235","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-around-the-house","category-making-things","category-moved-from-livejournal"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6235","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6235"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6235\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15395,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6235\/revisions\/15395"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6235"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6235"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6235"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
