Forget the national TV coverage, the lights, cameras and action. Even if HGTV had never shown up in Mary Elizabeth Hulsey’s backyard, that space would still be a superstar—a sophisticated, in-the-city retreat that’s always ready for its close-up. Of course, HGTV did show up at Mary Elizabeth’s house recently, to feature her bodacious backyard on ...Read more.
Remodeling a Mid Century Modern home doesn’t mean you have to stick with the original plans, but considering the integrity of the design will create unity. Redesigning a Master Bathroom can be challenging to integrate both masculine and feminine touches, but this Mid Century inspired design has both guys and dolls swooning.
With New York sophistication, recreate this look by incorporating a linear veining marble, like Silver Cream Marble, and create a wall of mosaics in Zafu Silk to make this circular mirrors pop. Be sure to give the 60’s a nod, and repeat the circle motif by incorporating a Sputnik light fixture.
You’ll be toasting your Manhattans with a Mid Century remodel like this Master Bath!

Get floored by basketweave mosaics…
Because basketweave mosaics come on mesh-backed sheets, they’re surprisingly simple to install. Even around curved lines and cabinet corners, basketweaves can work right in. Superior installers can make amazing canvases with these unique patterns, as you can see in this stunningly curvy kitchen.
Go vintage with basketweave mosaics…
We love the look of this bathroom that pays homage to the home’s time period in a thoroughly modern translation. The basketweave mosaic ‘rug’ is a lovely focal point and a fun contrast to the buoyant sea spray blue wall tiles. Married with crisp black accent tiles, black cabinets and white surfaces, this installation is quite memorable.
Convinced yet? Basketweave mosaics are great additions to your home, no matter the size or style of your space. And with Mission Stone & Tile’s current special on a seemingly endless selection of basketweaves to chose from, you have the perfect opportunity to weave in these beautiful mosaics wherever you’d like. See the full offering at the Mission Stone & Tile website today!

Want to know the ins & outs of great tile installations? Just look at the ins & outs of basketweave mosaics.
These cleverly cut mosaics inventively replicate the look of dimensional, intertwined woven baskets in intricately arranged stone pieces. These mosaics add interest and texture to floors and walls, gently incorporating accented and detailed configurations without fussing with too many colorways.
They’re classic, too…hip enough to blend with contemporary decor yet traditional enough to fit right in a retro remodel. The look is versatile, the material is durable and the style is enduring.
There are a vast array of basketweave mosaic selections for just $8.99/sq ft. Mission’s blends run the gamut from rustic earthy tones to sleek, sophisticated black-and-white patterns. The potential looks and uses are nearly endless.
Want to see basketweaves in their ‘natural habitats’? Here are some installation ideas from across the nation to offer inspiration if you’re considering becoming a ‘basket case’.

How to find a discontinued tile to complete your home improvement project.

How to Find Discontinued Tile
This week I went to a jobsite to help a builder friend of mine who was repairing a shower for a client. His client had a shower with half walls, and glass enclosing the shower to the ceiling. They desired to completely enclose the shower, and went ahead with the construction problem without first considering that the additional tile may no longer be available. The tile that is currently installed in the shower was also a very difficult to find size– a 16×24 gold limestone, that is 3/4″ thick. After searching through our tile store bone yard, and finding no solution, we decided to take the following steps:
We were able to salvage a scrap of the tile that was removed in the construction process and send it off to several vendors. We were able to find a good color match, but the size was not the same. Our solution was to insert a decorative border, at the transition, all the way around the shower (some people refer to this as an accent band or decorative border) to camouflage the new size difference, and slightly different shade in color.
If we can ever help you solve your tile problem, please contact us and we will search high and low for you!
