| We have just torn out a bathroom with lovely sea-foam and white speckled tile from head to toe. It's a shame the previous owners didn't correct the termite and mold problems, because the tile colors in the bathrooms really suit me. I'm not able to re-use these, and I'm wondering if any of you can point me to a place that might want them. There are 974 4" tiles, plus a soap holder. When I remodeled the other bath in this house, I was able to remove and reinstall the lavender tiles. I removed the matching vanities and toilet, and I'm wondering where I could sell those? Or give them to a good home? I'm in Wichita KS. |

| You might put them on ebay. Or look for a midcentury modern website in your state. We have a site in phoenix modernphoenix.net where people post things like this for sale. That is a lot of tiles. I bet there is someone out there who would like them for their mid century remodel. |

| They wouldn't happen to look like this would they? (The speckledy one) |

| Here's what mine look like. I think the picture came out a little "greener" than the tiles, though. |

| Habitat Restores will take those tiles and I believe they will pick them up too. Hopefully you have one close by. Here in Colorado, we have a lot of recycle places that will resell them. Also try Craigslist - either for free or for sale. Diane |

| Put them on the classified list at Retrorenovation.com! Numerous folks haunt that site for exactly such tile finds, so it's a large market/audience. Good luck. |
