Plinth Lights and Tiles

Wall tiles have been cemented in place but the ones we found that we liked and were suitable were fairly thick, 10mm or so which meant we had to use special edging to ensure the tiles looked right. The edging is brushed stainless steel, quite difficult to cut smoothly and mitre the corners but with practice and a bit of care. Grouting yet to do.

To add a bit of bling, we installed some plinth lights for effect. The best value ones we discovered were form National Lighting. However, because the Wren plinths are made of the lowest possible grade of material, the holes had to be cut very carefully to avoid the MDF shredding. Also, because the MDF is rubbish quality, the plinths will warp in use if you are not careful. The plastic clips that Wren provide to clip onto the legs are so flimsy as to be useless for holding anything in place.
