Grout color help needed!
6 years ago
We have installed a grey hexagonal tile in our entry and I can’t choose a grout color. What do you think would look best? I don’t want it blendy but also not stark picture framing thanks!

Comments (14)Greg think you have made a great start, just needs a few colourful statement pieces. Firstly the chest of drawers are fab, my suggestion if you like them would be to utilise them in the lounge either side of the radiator under the window, for storing what looks like cd's the other side of the fireplace in these. You could put the existing cubes either side of the two sofa's. I would ditch the rug in the lounge, and get something bold and bright such as cobalt blue with orange/yellow. In the bedroom, keep the IKEA drawers and paint them either black or dark blue and have them adjacent to each other on the back wall opposite the bed, with the TV on top as someone has already suggested. The art work is great, but would swap it over to where the mirror is and move that elsewhere. Again ditch the rug, maybe an animal skin would work well in here, keeping a masculine feel. Pick some of the colours from the artwork for a well chosen throw and cushions for the bed, and don't be afraid to use some other accessories such as vases, lamps and dare I say candles!...See MoreHelp.

Comments (6)I would go for a sympathetically colored grouting as well; if you do it white, it will glare out at you, get dirty and look even more at odds over time. Something brownish which blends in to the other colors - you don't want it to stand out in any way - grouting needs to disappear and the tiles take prominence....See MoreGrout help!
Comments (27)Thanks @whirligig, we used some pre-mixed grout and went over it all with a float, cleaning up the excess afterwards. Then once it had all dried, went round and scraped off any flecks etc. and polished it up. Good tip with the cling film @maplecottage! We haven't made anything too messy yet, so we'll see how we go. Might get some sealer spray as it looks fairly easy to apply....See More- 6 years ago

Here is the finished product. I went with a different grout than any of the ones in the original. I found a different brand. The grout I used was winter grey from Home Depot. Thanks for your help everyone!
