Today’s moving day (wahoooooo!) so we thought we’d slap up this week’s giveaway this morning to tide you over until we have a moment to post some house-related updates. Oh yeah, and it just happens to be the biggest giveaway we’ve ever done. By a long shot.
So I’ll get to the point. It was almost exactly one year ago that I first used a wet saw. It was love at first site, er, cut. And today we’re sharing the love, thanks to some help from The Tile Shop. And boy is it a lot of love to share. $3000 worth of love to be exact.
You guys probably already know The Tile Shop as an awesome spot for tile, tiling supplies, and even free DIY support (both online and in stores). In fact, a lot of stuff for our bathroom remodel last year was purchased there (or borrowed from my dad, who had purchased it there). So if any of you need the kick in the pants to get your next tiling job started (kitchen backsplash? bathroom update?) here it is: TWO of you are going to win a $950 gift card to The Tile Shop and a deluxe wet saw valued at $550. Who’s suddenly got tile fever?
Here are all the deets when it comes to getting your chance at our biggest prize to date:
- PRIZE: This wet saw and a $950 gift card from The Tile Shop (valued at 3K, baby).
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “TILE ME!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … let’s gush about tile. What sorts of tile are you loving? Warm natural stone surrounding an open shower? Glam metallic subway tile on a kitchen backsplash? Or maybe a modern mosaic on a fireplace surround?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, December 15th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two

TILE ME!
Not sure of the specifics, but we need to overhaul a dark and dated family room that has a woodstove. Our vision includes tile both on the floor and in the wall area near the stove. Our intention is to give it a LOT more thought after Xmas.
Angi Busick says
TILE ME please! WE just bought our first house and are renovating the entire place on a kitchen budget with a 13 month old en tow. PLEASE deliver my tile salvation: white marble subway. Fingers WAY crossed. Check out our progress:

I die for some great glass subway tiles in my bathroom shower surround. Then I’d totally move onto my kitchen backsplash where I’d do glass thin strips of differnt colors in blues, greens,silvers and whites. Oh my I hope I win!!
Katie G says
TILE ME!!
I’m a fan of the classic white subway tile!
Carol Stephens says
TILE ME!! We have sold our home and have to be out on January 12th, problem is that we haven’t found a new one yet. House hunting for a family of 7 isn’t easy, we require a large number of bedrooms for 5 growing boys! I am positive that I will need to do several tile jobs in the new place just to put our stamp on it. And I’m moving away from my neighbor whom I borrowed the saw from previously….I’m going to need my own! Thanks!!!!! PS, I’ve been watching very closely for your tips and tricks regarding moving. Thanks for the the pointers.
Erica says
TILE ME! I LOVE the transparent color square glass tiles. My husband says they are a pain to install, but I think I could talk him into it if they were already paid for!
Taylor says
TILE ME!!!!
I need to redo my bathroom desperately and can’t wait to get some cream/green combo going!

ariana says
Tile me!!!!! I would love me some glass tile!!
Amanda says
TILE ME!
I am in love with white subway tile at the moment, with accents of black and white glass tile. We are in the process of turning a large closet into a bathroom and that is what we are dreaming about!!!
Iliana M says
Tile me
I like the small square tiles that come on those sheets (have no idea what they’re called) because you just cut the exact amount you want. Seems pretty easy!
Krysta says
Tile Me!! We would love to lay slate tile on our front porch.
Nikki says
“TILE ME!”
Please, please,please, I love tile project and have one coming up! My favorite tile right now is a tumbled marble and quart or travertine mixed mosaic. I like glass tile too, but mini horizontals or larger squares, not mini squares. Thanks to you both for the giveaway!!
Emily says
TILE ME!
I have been wanting to tile my ugly fireplace forever. The current tile job from the previous owners is an eyesore, but I haven’t had any extra cash to fix it. This would be a wonderful opportunity to put on my diy pants and get er done! :)
Elise says
TILE ME!
Well I’m a college student so I don’t have any big plans for tiling, however this could be the best Christmas present ever for my dad!

Tina says
TILE ME!!!

Tile Me!
I have been dreaming of doing our kitchen backsplash in a glass mosaic tile. Would love to retile the entry floor & first floor powder room too, but haven’t figured out what there yet! Maybe large stone??
Sarah B says
TILE ME!
Gary Fabro says
TILE ME!
What I’m loving is just about anything in a rectangular shape—from white subway wall tile to large black rectangular floor tile.
Melissa says
TILE ME!!! And the drawing is on my anniversary….what a wonderful anniversary present that would be for my hubby. I am loving bathroom tile, we are moving in January to a new house and the bathroom needs a serious overhaul…so far we haven’t picked just the right tile but this would help in the process.
Jen says
TILE ME! I am craving some travertine!
Will says
TILE ME
Anne Mueller says
TILE ME!
We have 2 bathrooms to redo and I have been loving natural tones however there is something about the subway tile that is calling my name.
Sarah says
TILE ME!!!! I’m LOVING subway tile—but in a herringbone pattern…and any type of slate. I love slate!
Rae says
TILE ME! You can never go wrong with a classic, white subway tile. It gives kitchens a traditional meets modern look, and bathrooms a downtown spa look! Very chic!
Virginia says
Tile me!
I love almost everything about our kitchen except the fact that it doesn’t have a backsplash. It would look so polished if we could do a shimmery gunmetal color to pick up the stainless steel appliances and the sparkle in the dark granite counters.
Emily Sipos says
TILE ME!
We would love to do some re-tiling the Au Natural way with natural stone and white tiles…
MS says
TILE ME!
We had someone else tile at our old house. This time, we’ve decided to give it a shot ourselves! Unfortunately, I’m attracted to the super expensive glass tile, which is making the decision making process lots less fun. Beer budget and all.
Stephanie N says
TILE ME!
I’m loving anything in natural stone warm colors. This would be a great give-a-way for us! It’s give us the kick in the pants we need to redo our bathroom!
Allison says
TILE ME!
While I love the clean (and slightly vintage) look of white subway tile, this would be the perfect gift for my parents, who are getting ready to move to a new (to them) home.
Meredith says
TILE ME!
I’m dying to re-tile the 1st floor bathroom in our new house. It’s identical in every way to your old one and the black and white tiles are in pretty rough shape.
Kathy Z says
TILE ME!
I would love to put a nice tile back splash in our kitchen. :)

I actually love the tile in the picure, and I love glass tiles.
Erin says
Tile Me!!
I love the natural stone look, and I think our bathroom would love it too!!
Greg says
TILE ME!
Natural stone in earth tones for me.
Sayard says
TILE ME!!!
We bought a cheap-o tile saw from Home Depot quite a few years back for $88 and it’s crapped out on us and we have a new house and at least 3 tile jobs to do!! This would be a miracle!! We have standard white tiles in our kitchen that need to go (we’d like natural stone looking tiles in there), a new backsplash.. because we don’t have one at all right now! And our blue tile in the upstairs bath, along with the pink tiled shower definitely need to be updated. Thanks for offering this amazing give away!!
Good luck with the move today!!
Alyssa Denzer says
TILE ME!! We’ve been contemplating tile for our kitchen backsplash, and should I even mention the tile in our bathroom which was laid in crookedly ?! What a great giveaway…. :)
SG says
TILE ME! I love the glass mosaic tiles – so pretty.
