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.

    I love natural tile, at least the beauty of it. I have heard it is harder to take care of, but I think the beauty of it is worth it :). We do not have on piece of tile in our house.. I know the shame! It’s on our to do list and this win sure would help!!!

    TILE ME! Please and thank you! I love mosaic glass tile and the new (to me) textured tile with damask or wood grain patterns.

    I love the recent trend of transparent glass subway tiles – like the ones in your post photo. And also am dying to have a bathroom covered in a mix of natural stone tiles and creamy marble.

    Good luck on moving!!

    Tile ME! We actually just finished up most of our tile projects, but I think we could do something amazing in our back yard which needs a ton of work :)

    Tile me!!! I love mosaics, natural stone, subway… all of it really. I tiled my first bathroom floor and kitchen backsplash a few months ago. Hard work but I love that I can say that “I can tile” now. :)

    Tile me! I want so badly to get rid of the horrible peach colored tiles in my 1950’s bathroom. I am really loving the look of white subway tiles…but really I just want anything neutral (not peach).

    I am more of a natural stone person. I do not like slate (for floors at least) as it is killer on my legs when standing to cook or bake for a long time. I love metallic small tiles for a backsplash.

    I am totally digging subway tile in white and slate in both the bathroom and the kitchen. Glammy metallic in the kitchen would be killer too!

    TILE ME! I dont know if my first post posted but I LOVE subway tile in the kitchen and tile from top to bottom in the bathroom. Both of my spaces are small so 950 could porbably put a big dent on both thsoe projects!

    I would get some slate tile for our master bath floor since the toilet just flooded the carpet (yuck!) and it had to be removed.

    I love older, historic style tile – styles like subway, hexagonal and penny tiles are my faves! And white! Lots of white!

    I have been dying to rip out the horible plastic tub surround and tile with a beautiful white ceramic tile! And I am in LOVE with the “Blue Twighlight Glass” mosaic tile for the backsplash in our kitchen!

    TILE ME! At the moment, I like any tile that is clean and not in need of replacement! lol. Which means, I’m not talking about the tile in MY shower. :)

    I just tiled the backsplash in my kitchen. I love, love glass tiles. I used small glass tiles (square) on the handy 12X12 sheets. So easy and the only cuts I had to make were on the mesh and not on the tile itself. I don’t consider myself much of a dyi-er when it comes to home projects, but I found this one easy-and even kind of fun!
