Me: I do like picking out paint colors, but why is it so hard? The paint swatch never matches how the color appears on the wall. It's frustrating! So there are 6 different gold-ish colors on the wall (I painted 3 colors twice). Three are left over samples from the condo, one is from a friend, another from my sis-in-law and a new color we just bought. I have my favorite, Bob has his, Nancy & Abbie each picked one and a girlfriend stopped by and wrote her favorite up on the wall (ha). What is your choice?

The tile we have laying on the floor is our top choice for tile. It's really unique and looks like distressed wood with some interesting stone appearance mixed in. There would be 1/16 inch grout line between the tiles that would blend in nicely because of the color variation in the tile. The whole 1st floor would be this & it would be stunning, hide the dirt and go with our various furniture pieces.
Our other thought is to not lay tile and just keep the exposed concrete. We would finish the concrete with a stain or paint plus a clear coat. This could look really cool with the imperfections bringing a lot of character. We're not going to do anything right now with the floor - only gathering ideas and thinking about it. What's your opinion?
