How do they look in person? From a distance – amazing! Up close these tiles don’t look as nice to me because of the seams and overall vinyl sheen/texture…but overall an improvement for sure. Was there any prep work? Thorough cleaning of dust and grime! My husband likes to clean so I stepped aside for this ).Did you align these with the previous tile? No, we worked from the center of the room out after watching this video tutorial.The tile underneath had a very uneven surface and big grout gaps, which made the final result a bit more impressive to me. Was the previous tile flat? No, not at all.Placing heavy books and detergent bottles at corners helped many adhere better than just using the rolling pin. We plan to eventually retile this room so we opted not to use additional adhesive. You can see in the photos below some edges are coming up a bit. We rolled them (with a rolling pin) after each tile was placed over the existing tile. If you want to use these long term you can use additional adhesive below the tile, but most of them stuck fine. Do they stay? People were asking me this as we were putting them down □ but I wanted to wait a couple weeks to give my review.We spent around $100 in materials to tackle this floor.Ī FEW OF THE MOST COMMON QUESTIONS I GOT IN MY DM’S WHEN I SHARED THIS PROJECT ON INSTAGRAM STORIES: There are lots of options when it comes to peel and stick tile and almost all are budget friendly. Peel and Stick Tile Review Jumpsuit (Small) // Hamper (size large) // Similar Tray // Glass Jar // Washer // Dryer I was feeling a little burned out, but the underside of the cabinet needs a few coats of paint. You can see in the photo below I actually need to finish painting the cabinets. We left the sink, faucet, and counters as is for now. In addition to the tile I painted the cabinets with Americana Decor “Vintage” Chalk Paint and used Rustoleum “pure gold” spray paint on the existing hardware. So many of you asked about these affordable peel and stick tiles so I wanted to followup with a review. With just paint and peel and stick tile we were able to give our laundry room an updated look. There was plenty of space, but I wanted to make it a bit prettier.īecause we are renovating our kitchen and refinishing our hardwood floors this spring, we had no budget for a laundry room makeover. The walls were yellow, the cabinets were a creamy yellow, and the tile was a builder-grade beige with grungy looking grout. The previous owners took the red washer and dryer. Budget Friendly Laundry Room Makeoverīelow you can see a photo of our laundry room just before we purchased the house. Today I wanted to share our budget laundry room refresh and review the peel and stick tile we used on the floor in there. From this budget powder room makeover to a complete kitchen gut, we’ve been busy with lots of house projects since we moved in October. After that, we knocked it out.įor around $60, this laundry room floor redo made such a huge transformation.and is only the first step to the rest of the Farmhouse Modern Laundry Room.If you follow me over on Instagram you may know I’ve thrown myself into quite a few renovation projects in the last few months. DIY made one teeny little mistake on the cut around the vent and also had one too many white tiles, so a trip back to Lowes to return the white and get another black was in order. All I want to say about this part is that when you're 40-something, sitting on the floor for a couple hours is a killer! I was allowed back into the room to help with cutting the tiles (after I calmed down, lol). I was driving Mr DIY cah-razy.so I had to leave the room for awhile and let him work in peace and quiet! The center of the room was the easiest and took us no time I actually laid those tiles myself ( thank you, thank you very much!).īut.then it got hard.math and measuring! Plus, every time a tile was flipped over, I panicked that we were cutting the wrong side (I'm visual, not analytical.so once I couldn't see the pattern anymore with my eyes, I lost it in my mind's eye ~ anyone else like that?). You'll see that they have a pattern to them I wanted to make sure that was running in the same direction for all the tiles. We also had to be careful to lay the tiles in the right direction.
