AT:SF reader Kevin wrote in to say: I just bought some tile from NaturalPebbleTile and am delighted with it! I think it has a great zen/green look and feels great on bare feet! Here are some pictures of my new shower I just had taken for a local Home & Garden magazine.

Great to see this. We're considering this for our new place. It seemed a bit costly but it looks great mixed up with traditional tile. Like the accent band on the walls by the shower too!

Kevin,

This is very difficult for me to look at.

This pile of tile, http://www.flickr.com/photos/art_chel/1184986090/in/set-72157600128826994/

has moved around my apartment for almost one year now.

I envy you!!!!

Your bathroom looks very nice and I can't wait to join the "Natural Pebble Tile club."

I'm glad to hear that is comfortable on the bare feet. I am trying to accomplish a spa-like feel to the bathroom and thought these tiles would be quite therapeutic.

I'm also jealous because your bathroom is about the size of my bedroom.

@Mark Tyler,

I think that there is a more formal way to approach the advertising department.

Great bathroom! Looks like you also used travertine(?). I just moved to a new house with a similar shower. Any suggestion for the best way to keep it clean?

Ugh spam ('Mark Tyler').

Your bathroom is fantastic!

We did a bathroom remodel as well and used pebble tile. The picture below is of the "in-progress" stage but we did finish it and it turned out well.

malzer,

your house looks spectacular.

amazing masonry and tile work.

Your floor tile looks identical to mine.

Could you please tell me what you used for the 12 x 24 wall tiles in the bathroom? They look like sandstone--so cool.

Thanks Art. I really appreciate it.

The 12x24 we used in the "wet" area is actually porcelain. The manufacturer is Everstone in Australia.

It is great stuff. The installers kept commenting on the hardness and supposed durability.

Hope this helps.

Malena

Kevin, your post is heaven sent: I was just about to order tiles for my shower stall floor. I liked them well enough but the pebbles are so much nicer. I know I'd love how they felt on my feet. One question: did you install them yourself? If so, how difficult was it to do? I saw the installation pictures on the website. It seems reasonably doable. Did you have any problems?

Thanks

Looks gorgeous! Are pebble floors easy to clean? What do you use?
