3x6 Subway Tile and Mosiac Accent Row Design Question

[Tim C.]

Hello BP Community!

I currently have 3x6 subway tiles and some blue mosaic squares for an accent row that are ready to be applied. Here are my "design" questions...

1. Do you think a blue accent row is okay when it comes to reselling the house? I had trouble picking a neutral accent row color that would look good and give the shower some pop.

2. With the accent row we have some decisions to make. What do you think looks best and will increase the resale value the most?

a. pencil strip all the way until it butts up against the bullnose along the edge. (1st picture)

b. no pencil strip with mosaic butting up against the bullnose (2nd picture)

c. pencil strip creating a box effect (3rd picture)

e. Any other ideas?

Thank You! :D
