starting small

i'm trying to SLOWLY get myself back into the design world. did i say SLOWLY? because i mean't S L O W L Y. i started small, here's a wall at my friend's home...



each tile is framed and stands out from the wall about an inch. you cannot see the chair rail that she already has slightly below it, and the paint color that we chose for the bottom half is the darker brown in the tile below. it looks very nice if i do say so myself.
