The Flooring Frenzy Continues. Back when we bought our kitchen tile , we actually bought some similar grey peel and stick tile for the main floor bathroom. Again I win the worst blogger of the year award by not taking any “before” pictures of the bathroom. I have this one showing a sliver of the old flooring. It was ugly. It was brown and tan, even though the rest of the bathroom is grey and yellow.
So I updated it with this nice mellow grey tile.
Much better huh? Just ingnore the leftover vinyl trim glue. It’s just another one of the million places in the house that we need to fix and hang new trim. Again…. Public Service Announcement… Do Not EVER put up 4″ adhesive vinyl trim in a home. EVER.
The best part is that this project came in under $30! It has motivated me to tackle more projects in the bathroom. Watch out cabinets… you and can of white paint have a date next week!
*3/12/15 Update*- This tile was VERY inexpensive, and although it looked good initially, it did not hold up to long term wear. It scuffed VERY easily. As an after sight I would NOT put down such a cheap flooring product again… unless it was a short term fix. Because short term it was excellent.
All the floors look so good!
The bathroom floor looks fantastic and you sure managed to do it on a dime. We need to update our bathroom floor, this is a reminder.
Hi, I realize this is an old post, but I was wondering if you could let us know where you purchased this peel and stick tile? It looks much better than any I have seen! Thanks!
Absolutely it was from Menards, this was the tile. Thanks so much for stopping and commenting! Page Removed-http://www.menards.com/main/flooring/vinyl-flooring/vinyl-tile/designers-image-gold-series-vinyl-tile-russet-tan-travertine-12-x-12/p-1710625-c-6619.htm
Any specific tile? I have linoleum and would like to update on a budget and that looks like actual tile! I don’t want it to still look like linoleum if that makes sense?

This was what we used, I just updated the post to mention how it held up… mediocre, but definitely not a good long term option. Looked great as a phase 1 update, or a quick fix.

How has the tile held up to this point? Looks like it’s been a couple years.
Actually we moved to a new house, but we lived with it about 6 months. It held up well during that time but my only complaint was that if anyone wore black soled shoes it would scuff easily.
