Tiny Tricky Tile Trouble

Yesterday I started to try laying the tile but I didn't get very far. I bought some 1/8" tile spacers from Home Depot even thought I didn't think they looked like the right size. They are supposed to fit in between your tiles so they're all evenly spaced. 1/8" was the closest they had, but sure enough, they're too big. Greg says he thinks Regina just eyeballed it when they layed their 1" hex tiles in their bathroom.

I had some trouble cutting these tiny tiles, too. The little tiles come in a big sheet and you can just pop tiles out of it. But making a clean cut for the door way is going to be harder. I bought some new tile nippers today so I'll see if that works. I found this Tile Your World bulletin board that's pretty nice. They even had a couple discussions on the best ways to cut 1" hex tile.
