Trim with stone

[Ian]

I broke a golden rule today and put some chrome trim with some travertine mosaics, it just didn't look right without as the main tile was ceramic.

Nothing wrong with that at all, as you said the large tiles are ceramic so it doesn't look out of place. Plus when all the shower fittings are in place it will work even better.

That said might be a different story when grouted (depending on the colour).

Bri that looks good with the trim. That's one job I really hate and dread. I always seem to get the 600x600 polished porcelain tiles a niche and a shelf to set out. The niche mush have the grout line going through the middle (horizontal & vertical). The last one I did also had a down light within it. Boy does it eat up the hours.

I've been searching for pre formed niches that can just be glued in place. I'm sure I've seen them somewhere on the net.

That did cross my mind! It's accessible from the back so, no real drama if it needs extending.
