EDITOR’S LETTER
Remodeling your home is never as simple as it sounds. When my husband and I started our DIY bathroom remodel a few months ago, we planned to replace the dark flagstone floor tiles (think late ‘90s) with fresh white hexagonal tiles, reminiscent of the penny tiles popular in the 1920s. As we demoed the floor, we realized that the flagstone tile was twice the height of the new tile we’d bought. We had to set our renovation schedule back almost two weeks to install a layer of subflooring, so the level of the floor would match the hallway outside.
