What kind of dream bedroom did I have in mind for my son? Most people prefer wood floors for the bedroom. And yes, hardwood flooring or laminate flooring is a great choice for a bedroom. The look of wood makes a room feel warmer and more welcoming, which may be exactly the look that most people would desire for a bedroom. But, since I am from South Florida were tile bedrooms are the norm, I chose to bring some Florida flavor to the GA. I wanted to give my son's room a natural feel.

 I think that natural stone tile may be an option to consider for bedroom floors as well. There are so many different kinds and colors of stone that will go with any kind of decor that the only hard part will be choosing the kind of tile that you want for your bedroom. I choose tile that flows with the rest of my home and that makes the bedroom feel like a sanctuary. Natural stone tile flooring gives any room a more expensive feel and a spa-like look and this is what I had in mind for my son's room. I love the look so far. I'm extremely pride of myself! Thank you God for giving me a house that I can call home/my sanctuary.

For me to remember for my upcoming bathroom project....
