Many people believe color to be the manifestation of the mind-eye chakra. Colors affect the way people think, feel, and act. When considering new ceramic tiles for your kitchen and bathroom you should consider what color vibrations you are sensitive to.

Let's start with the kitchen. If you want you and your family to eat healthier you should get light green or orange-yellow colored tiles. These colors reinforce positive eating habit energies through your eyes, directly to your brain and stomach. If you are unaffected by these colors on a spiritual level you should consider throwing some kitchen backsplash tiles into the mix. Specifically try to find ceramic backsplash tiles with fruits and vegetables on them. Then maybe on your next trip to the kitchen you will opt for carrot sticks and not the potato chips.

You should also remember you can buy blank ceramic tiles (or porcelain tiles) and paint them yourself. It is a labor intensive process but if you are the crafty type you will find it most rewarding. Paint pictures of fruits and vegetables on the tiles. This is a more direct reminder that you should be eating healthy. If your kitchen is the social space of your home you should decorate it with purple tiles. Purple tiles relax people and make them feel at ease. Lush shades of purple look much better in a kitchen than sterile whites and blues. Make sure to get tile flooring as well as wall tiles. Flooring is an often overlooked aspect of the kitchen.

Now that we have thoroughly explored the spiritual ramifications of kitchen tiles, let's move onto the bathroom. The bathroom is a space of cleanliness, renewal, and rebirth. For the bathroom I would suggest a light pink or light blue color scheme. Light pink will make it feel like spring in your bathroom all year round, which is what you want. Every morning you go to the bathroom and transform from a caterpillar into a butterfly. Light pink ceramic tiles will aid in this transformation and conjure images of spring floors. A light blue ceramic tile can also be helpful in aiding you in your daily transformation. Light blues conjure images of water which we associate with "spring showers". If you have kids, the light blue color will remind them to brush their teeth and clean behind their ears. Whatever colors you choose, remember you will be seeing them every day. These colors will be affecting your mood and actions so choose wisely.

Butterflies just have something special about them. They are such a beautiful and unique creature with so many colour combinations that you have to admit that they are one of nature's most exquisite creations. They are feminine yet childlike and have an almost ethereal quality about them especially when teamed with fairies and done extravagantly with glitter in hues of pink and purple. Butterflies are pictures in so many colours, they cover more than just a rainbow, they use the whole spectrum or colour. They come in so many different shapes, colours and sizes that when it comes to interior decorating you can use butterflies with almost any colour palette you select. They can be black and white for stark contrasting imagery or red and white for something classic. However, pink does seem to reign supreme - making butterflies the perfect choice for a little girls bathroom or your own if you just choose to surround your bathing/shower experience with something pretty and girly.

A large amount of butterfly shower curtains follow the mainstream with pink/purple/flowers with little butterflies - very soft and country meadow sort of feel to it. You can and will find more modern designs such as pink and purple ones with bold shaped butterflies. If you are lucky you will be able to save time trying to find co-ordinating items by purchasing a matching set which could include a bathmat, toilet seat and tank covers as well as a liner for the curtain and a toilet mat. Prepackaged sets are often a way to save money too, really useful if you are on a tight budget for your butterfly bathroom makeover. One of the brightest and most colourful butterfly curtains I have found is the jubilee curtain which is clear vinyl with red, blue, orange, green, white and yellow butterflies all over it!

Don't just limit your butterfly bathroom makeover to a new shower curtain when there is a huge selection of butterfly bathroom accessories available. There a variety of different butterfly shower curtain hooks to choose from to complement either your butterfly shower curtain or brighten up and an accent to an otherwise plain coloured shower curtain. Butterfly themed soap dishes, toothbrush holders, towels, lotion dispensers and waste paper basket or bins will all add to the butterfly magic.

Don't stop there - why not use butterflies on the walls either as those repositionable and removable wall decals (great if you are renting) or a framed picture or a piece of gorgeous metalwork. Also, have you heard about wall tile murals where you can create a gorgeous image of a butterfly with 6 to 8 standard tiles, really creating a feature point on one wall.
