I think we just bought the same tile but we went with the subway mozaic. I would take one of the darker shades out of the mozaic and go with a brown (not chocolate brown but a nice soothing brown).

Love the way it came out!

Thanks. Are your tiles Rialto Beige? That's what ours are. I am so glad we are in the home stretch with this renovation! So you suggest a darker beige/tan or in the brown family?

I would pull a shade out of the tile also and paint it darker than the tiles. Brown/dark tan could be nice. It's hard to tell, is there any blue in the tile? A pretty aqua or turquoise could be good too.

No mine is called something else but it really does look exactly like the ones we bought. I think that you should do a dark tan/beige or a light brown but I think if you go too dark it might make the room smaller.
Good luck I can't wait until I am up to your stage. Our tube went in yesterday but the drain is causing a problem so we had to open up our dining room wall to fix it--there is always an issue.
Good luck

Oh the issues we had...even the wood behind the walls wasn't installed properly forever ago. Plumbing was a whole other issue, BUT it's done now!!!

I brought a tile to Aboff's and told him I wanted something darker than the tile and he spent some time with me and we both decided on a nice darker tan...but not TOO dark...will post pics when DH is done painting!
