Floor & Decor Store Tour!


Floor & Decor Partnership

As some of you saw (through my IG stories) last week I announced a new and exciting partnership with Floor & Decor !! This has been such an exciting step in not only my blogging career but in our design and renovation business! Floor & Decor is one of our favorite places to go when we search out backsplashes and flooring! Last week I got the opportunity to get a private store tour of our local branch.  I learned about some awesome programs they offer and even some new exciting products that I know you all will love!! Let's get to it! 


If you have never been to a Floor & Decor just imagine a designers candy shop...the size of a warehouse!   They offer so many types of backsplashes it's craziness! (The pic above is literally one aisle of them...now imagine about six rows more!!)  At the same time the employees are right there to help direct you so you don't feel overwhelmed!  Each section of the store is easy to navigate and most products are ready and in stock!! They offer you top quality products all at rock bottom prices! 
Our local store was in the middle of a renovation and I'm excited to see the end product! They are creating a large design area with a huge touchscreen that will also showcase different style kitchens and bathrooms! (Oh and they also offer custom cabinetry!)
If you are not sure exactly what you want for your space they have complimentary (YES) designers that can work with you to plan your dream space! How awesome is that?!

Floor & Decor offers homeowners and professional contractors access to such a wide selection of tile, wood, stone plus all the related tools and flooring accessories! They were founded in 2000 and the main headquarters is located in Atlanta! 


After starting off our tour in the backsplashes we headed over to flooring.
You all know how much we love using wood ceramic tiles for our properties and Floor & Decor literally has aisles full of choices in all price points!


I get asked a lot about waterproof and/or water resistant options when it comes to flooring in the kitchen and bath.  I found this product they sell called AquaGuard to be a great alternative to tile! 
They have options for both and I was surprised at all the amazing colors and textures they had! 



They also had a large selection of laminates! You know how impressed I am with wood laminates these days! These were two of my favorites! 


If you have been following along you know that our newest project has a modern/beachy design plan.  We decided to once again go with a wood ceramic tile throughout the entire property.  There isn't a lot of light in the dining room/family room combo so I wanted to choose a lighter floor.  I fell in love with this whitewashed look! 


 I saw this display and had to share! Herringbone dreams!! 


The hubs and I finally decided on a more natural colored tile to offset the white kitchen and walls.  I think it's going to look amazing! (Flooring details to come.)


Once we finished searching out the flooring we headed into the stones.  Obviously this is where my paver guy had all the questions!  Elton was so impressed with all the stone/travertine/paver selection they had!

We even found our new travertine patio stones that can be difficult to track down because of the thickness of them! 








Oh my gosh you guys! Most people would see marble window sills here but I saw DIY projects!! 
Creating marble shelves made simple!! Plus check out those prices! 



I have decided to designate an entire blog post to the simple steps of installing a kitchen backsplash! 
Currently the project kitchen is gutted and now all the fun can begin! The backsplash we have chosen for the kitchen is this carrara white hexagon marble .  I think this will look perfect with white cabinets and adds some fun beachy flair! 


The materials neede to along with the backsplash are the epoxy setting mortar and the unsanded white grout! Depending on your taste they have lots of grout colors! 

 



I'll be updating progress on Facebook and Instagram all month! Floors and paint should be done by next week and then we can begin working on the kitchen! Be sure to check back to see the blog post on how you can DIY your kitchen backsplash!

Thanks friends!

  1. Flooring is a crucial part of any interior design and can easily make or break your space. While our first interaction with a space is visual, the first physical contact a person will have with your space is the flooring. It serves as a foundation to your design and can ultimately impact its overall success. Flooring Contractors Redruth

  3. Plastics have a huge negative impact on the environment. There is, however, no alternative to the products of nylon film supplier/manufacturer. They're fantastic and offer long-term protection. You can look for a low-cost buying price by doing some research.

Neutrals by BEHR Paint

I've been working on a project for the past two weeks and what always seems to be the most challenging part is choosing paint colors.  I have been wanting to find a nice neutral that isn't too "Gray" and isn't too "Beige" but not too white either. I personally like the look of white walls in pictures but in reality I'm not a huge fan.  Also, I like to see a contrast between painted walls and white trim.  Each time I look over on Pinterest for inspiration I find lots of suggestions for other paint brands..but I'm a BEHR girl :)  We spend so much time at Home Depot it just makes more sense for us.  That being said I decided to share with all of you my suggestions for finding the perfect "light Greige" by BEHR Paints!   To start off with here are three options that are lighter/cooler but will still show a nice contrast next to white. 1. Drizzle 2. Sterling 3. Halation These three options are als

4 Tips for Selling Your Home!

*Sponsored Post. Thank you to our talented guest blogger, Alex Berger, for sharing these 4 tips on selling your home!* Selling your home can be extremely stressful, but if you are in the beginning stages of the home selling process, I have a few tips for you! About four years ago, my parents packed up their home and moved from Marietta, Georgia to Amelia Island, which is about 30-40 minutes from the Jacksonville airport. They had no idea what to expect when it came to buying in a city that was completely new to them (they had only visited Jacksonville once - for two days!), so it was pretty stressful for them. Now, looking back, they could have done many things differently in order to make the process a lot easier for themselves, especially when it came to selling their home. But, since the selling process is so complex and stressful, a lot of people do it “wrong,” and they are just one of many, which is why I want to help. Here are a few tips for selling your home.
