I just refinished my bathroom remodel and I installed white penny tiles in the walk in shower floor. It isn't any harder to clean than any other tile. It's porcelain and very comfortable on the feet. Once installed you do not see as much grout as you think. I got mine from Artistic Tile and it is very affordable, less than $8 per sq ft.

Definitely shoes off, BUT I do not make a big stink if someone does not take it off when they are over only because I don't want them to feel attacked. That said, I find it incredibly disgusting that people wear shoes in the house. You have NO idea how gross the bottom of your shoes is. Even though I don't make a big stink about people entering my house with shoes on, I also find it rude seeing that everyone who enters my house knows that I have a shoe-less policy. I have had people track in dog poop, mud, gum, leaves inside the house when I have crawling babies. People have also made gouges and deep scratches in my wooden floor by digging their heels which I cannot fix unless I rip out my wooden floor.

If the wood is in good condition, I would keep the wood and just cover the seats in red/ orange/ blue/ kelly green fabric. I would go for stripes, chevron or some pattern and not solid fabric. If you must pain the chairs, I vote a funky color like orange/ red/ yellow and not white. Also depends on if you use the table w/o the cloth and what the table looks like underneath.

I bought some IKEA towels for my guest bath and they are HORRIBLE. It sheds lint like crazy and there's a huge ball of lint in my washer AND in the lint trap in the dryer even after 6 months. Sames goes for their bathroom rug. I have since discarded and replaced them with towels from TJMaxx.

queenofthfall: here is a cheaper alternative that i use. i have my bedside lamp on a timer so that it comes on a little before my alarm clock. the light helps your body wake up more naturally. i've done it for few years now and it works.
