If you recall a couple weeks ago, we had to have a plumber come to the house to replace the faucet on the jacuzzi. To do that he had to pry off some tiles and cut through some plywood to get to it. This is how it looks now. Some of the tiles broke when he took them off, so we have to find some matching tiles. We checked Home Depot, and a small bathroom tile store, but neither had anything close to something that matched the existing tile. You can not tell from this picture, but the tiles have sort of a mottled texture and are a little on the yellow/cream side. There are a couple of commercial tile places that do nothing but tile. We are going to check there next. They are pretty big places, so hopefully they will have a lot of inventory for us to choose from. I am not too worried about actually spacing, gluing, and grouting the tiles. I am just worried that we won't find a close color/texture match and it will really stand out. Maybe we will have to get a flowing fern to hide it a little bit.
