I love the tile work on this stairway. I have been working on my house this summer and used this as inspiration for the backsplash in my kitchen. I did not like the green accent tiles and did not have enough money (or patience) to replace them, so I came up with a creative way to cover them up!

Thing 6:
I love the Flickr Color Pickr! It would be awesome to use in making a self-portrait mosaic!

Thing 7:
Something technology related that interests me... see above! I found a picture of a tile that I liked on the internet and uploaded it to Walgreens.com. The pictures were ready in an hour. I trimmed them and put them through a sticker-making machine (found at Wal-Mart in the scrapbooking aisle). Then I just peeled them off and put them over the tiles that I didn't like! It took an hour! If any get dirty or messed up (or I decide I want a different design) I can easily change them! Technology is awesome!
