Colorful

But then your eye catches it.  Catches the slightly browned lines between your shining tiles.  So slight that you know guests will never notice, probably not even your spouse, but now you know it’s there: it’s already too late.

For one, you could utilize the tricks of our ancestors and mix a little baking soda and hope that you have a spare toothbrush in the house

But then you’re letting yourself fall into the cycle, your white grout will brown at some point in the next couple of months, and because you’re so acutely aware, you will start seeing the slightest of browning.  And you’ll again be hoping that you have a spare toothbrush around.

There is a savior, though.

This is a cheap and foolproof way to add style and value to your floor or walls.

Color could be added after the fact in the same way that you would need to clean your original grout: using baking soda, a small amount of grout mixture, a few dabs of acrylic paint, and your trusty spare toothbrush.

Or, when your feeling up to a big weekend renovation, you do it yourself!  Just get your favorite acrylic color and mix it in with your grout mixture.  You will not only give your room a pop of color, it will also provide a clean, sleek aesthetic that adds Home and Garden value.
