I want to cut down some great colored Tarkett VCTiles into smaller rectangles (think subway tile) and apply them as a retro 50′s type backsplash in my kitchen. They will get very little water contact so I’m not worried about that and I plan to coat and polish them to a shiny finish. This is [...]

I want to spray over the tile on the wall . Make it look textured. But I do not want to catch my house on fire when I want to cook a couple days after it dries. Does anyone know if textured stone spray paint is highly flammable or not ? Other Related Mosaic Sites

In newer homes this wood trim should normaly stand out about 1/4 of an inch or so and the wall would be set [...]

We are remodeling our kitchen and are installing a granite countertop. We’ve picked out a great tile to go with it and plan to tile the entire backsplash. Our granite guy is insisting that we go with a 4" granite backsplash and then tile above that. I think he’s just insisting that to sell more [...]

I’m thinking about broadening my field of expertise(I paint murals) to include painted backsplashes for kitchens and elsewhere. I bought a book on how to lay ceramic tile, I just need to know if there’s anyone out there with experience in this, and how they felt about it, any ideas? Other Related Mosaic Sites

I guess it’s technically the wall splash since the tile does go about 8 inches up the wall. It’s a new house, kitchen and living room are like one big room.
