The boys bathroom is quite small and I am hoping to make it look as large as possible with simple, timeless selections. The choices I made for the master bathroom were my very favorites of everything we saw so I thought why use second choices just to have something different?! These will look very familiar to you if you have already read about my tile selections for the master. :-)
Floor Tile (also for shower floor)
Porcelain 12×12 Volakas Matte Hexagon Mosaic
$12.99 each
Laid with light gray grout (photo is of polished but we will use honed)
I fell in love with this tile for its marble look and the hexagon shape This bathroom still has its original 1964 hexagon tile and I thought this was a nice nod to the room’s beginnings. I will carry this tile straight through from the floor to the shower floor and also use it as a decorative inset for toiletries in the shower.
Shower Walls
4×10 Maiolica White Ceramic Tile
$0.89 each
Laid in a brick pattern with white grout
I loved this one so much because it is budget friendly but looks handmade with its texture. It is so beautiful put together on a wall. I will use white grout because I saw another display put together that way and the grout all but disappeared.

Love the tile! What type of vanity are you doing? We are about to redo our kids bathroom and I’m really struggling with which direction to go. I like the white subway tile look for walls but want something bigger for the floors since it’s a small bathroom. Any suggestions?
Hi! I found a vanity with a gray cabinet and marble counter that I’m planning to use. I decided to do a smaller hex on the floor because it has that now and I love it. If I did a large size I’d need probably 8 total tiles and thought that would look odd too. :-)
Love your tile selections! It will look so beautiful when finished. I am wondering about the white grout, though…..What are your thoughts on keeping that fresh and white? I purposely chose a medium color grout for our bathroom floors and shower walls and wish I had gone even darker because, let me tell you, I struggle keeping it all nice and clean.
I’m wondering the same thing about white grout!! We’re about to start selecting tile for our boys’ bathroom reno. I love (and want) a very similar white tile but am afraid of the upkeep of white grout. I’m sure you’ve got a plan and would love to hear your thoughts!
