Palm Springs Stephan noticed how cool Alice’s blue bathroom floor was, and is now working to replicate it in his California bathroom. He’s using unglazed mosaic’s, I believe, and I can’t wait to see the results. I also think you could use matte finish just fine. Alice was kind enough to send close ups of her floor so we could figure out how to replicate it.
If you’re looking for an authentic floor design – and one that’s not too expensive, either — this is a great find. 4×4 field tiles, and 1×1 mosaics are abundant in many colorways from Daltile and American Olean (which are owned by the same company) and, I am sure, other regional makers in your area.
What I also like about this floor, is that you can make it basically neutral via the larger tiles — but with just a little punch in the mosaics. A nice compromise.
- See Alice’s green bathroom, too! Click a couple of times on the photo and it will fill your screen for a good close up of the design. Clearly – the pattern was sold in sheets; don’t try to piece this together yourself, you will go insane.
And see these other two posts for other mosaic tile ideas:
- American Olean Chloe and S.J. Masters unglazed mosaic pattern
- And, S.J. Masters ‘ 60s blue splotchy mosaic (other colorways available)

Any information finding a tank cover for my blue green toilet would be greatly appreciated.

Dear Pam! Help! Remember our blue bathroom that you featured? The tank on the toilet cracked due to an over-twist of wrench! We are desparately trying to find a MATCHING blue tank and having trouble locating one…we’ve found lots of tanks, and some that are even blue, but not THIS blue. Perhaps your readers could be helpful? Thanks for anything you can do!
