They had to be cleaned up in the proper manner,which was quite an intricate process, but it was worth every minute of graft!! :)I look forward to seeing yours in all their splendour.

And it's always nice to have origional stuff. Our front porch has original geometric tiling (from 1887 I think - I'd need to check the exact year). Not int he same league as your tiles but still nice to have.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04181616393829854686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8308667.post-1157464586333616052006-09-05T13:56:00.000+00:002006-09-05T13:56:00.000+00:00Home makeover!
