5 Unique Floor Design Ideas
From: About.com Home Renovations

leather flooring

Leather?  Crocodile, specifically?  Yes.  And that's just one of the 5 unique floor design ideas we have in this overview. Did you know that leather floored was recycled?  Leather from shoes and coats are ground up, mashed up, and rebound to make "new" leather. We've also got tile that looks remarkably like wood...

Kitchen Tile Ideas - A Few Surprises Here

metal tiles

When I was looking for some kitchen tile ideas, I found a few unexpected things: There is such a thing as ready-to-hang kitchen tile backsplashes.  These are made by Broan and fit well behind almost any stove.  They look quite good, too.  This eliminates mortaring, tile cutting, grouting, and all of the other mess associated with tiling. Metal kitchen tiles look pretty good (pictured).  These come in 6" by 6" sizes and just peel and stick to clean surfaces.  You can easily put up a kitchen backsplash in a day with metal tiles like these.

Design a retro bathroom floor tile with Dal-Tile’s Mosaic Design Tool
Lauren and other readers have mentioned that local retailers don’t even know that this Dal-Tile Mosaic Design Tool exists. To be sure, it’s wicked fun and a very dangerous way to waste lots of time.
