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

I would love to put some travertine in our hall bath, right now we have painted over the peach and brown bath surround (which only goes up to your waist). Gotta love original tile from the 40’s, right?!
Emily says
TILE ME!!
I just saw a Holmes on Homes where he put in this beautiful dark stone around a shower. I don’t think I’m much of a dark shower person, but this tile was amazing and made the shower look very classy. Plus, I’m sure the dark color helps with keeping things looking clean ;)
Cori says
TILE ME! We love the tile in our kitchen so much that we would love to do the same with our bathroom that’s itching for an update! Woohoo- what an awesome giveaway! (And happy moving day!)

Great Giveaway…I’ll be sending this to Santa for extra luck in hopes for an early Christmas gift as well.
Samantha says
TILE ME! We just moved into our new house and we’ve been DIY’ing up a storm. We have plans to tile our upstairs bathroom…can’t wait!
Rachel says
TILE ME! We just renovated our kitchen & are in MAJOR need of a backsplash. We also need to slate the front porch, and will be taking on a master bath reno this year. 2011 will definitely e the year of tile around here. AND, since I’m in a career transition (ie. out of work), this would so be an answer to prayer!
Katie says
Tile me!
I love little glass tiles in bright colors. Fortunately, my kitchen is pretty neutral, so I can go with some color in my backsplash.
Nicole says
TILE ME!!!!
I love natural stones in organic shapes. I also love the look of a mosaic backsplash of sea glass :) Someday…..
Ashley says
tile me! my hubby would love a wet saw.
Brian says
tile me!
Subway tile for our bathroom is a project my wife always hints around about. However, with our first baby on the way, it’s a project that’s moved to the bottom of the list. Crossing my fingers!
Liz says
TILE ME!
I am dying to do a tile backsplash on my kitchen now that it has finally been painted, but have been intimidated by all the trim and corners that exist. A tile cutter would save my life if I didnt have to be frustrated while trying to do the tile work myself!
David says
Tile Me Please!
Jessica says
TILE ME! I would love subway tiles in our kitchen- to replace the original, chipping tiles we currently have.
Rachael C H says
TILE ME~I would loove a nice warm tile backsplash to add texture to my kitchen!
Wendy says
TILE ME! TILE ME! TILE ME… PLEEEEEEEEASE!!!
We would love to finish up our bathroom remodel and natural stone tile would be amazing.
Amanda@Longroadset says
Tile me!
I just know this saw and some new tile would come in handy for our future home. I like glass tile in the bathroom on the walls. Especially blues and greens. I want to do a similar tile for the kitchen back splash. But maybe something black in there though. I love black and white kitchens.
Anna says
“TILE ME!”
I’m loving metal tiles since we want stainless appliances in our next kitchen.
Stacy says
TILE ME! I have totally been thinking of doing a glass tile backsplash for our kitchen in warm, neutral tones. Wouldn’t my husband absolutely die if he received this tile saw for Christmas?! I don’t think there could BE a more perfect present for him! Best of luck in your new home, by the way — it looks absolutely perfect!
Jill Fuller says
Tile Me!
I’m not sure what kind of tile I like, I just know that I HATE my bathroom shower and floor tile right now!
Laura says
TILE ME! Glass mosaic, definitely…
Anayancy says
Tile Me!! I loooove the tile that is made to look like hardwood floors!!

Tile me!

“TILE ME!” I am saving to purchase the sea green glass tile for our back splash in our kitchen makeover.
Jennifer S. says
Tile Me!
I like white subway tiles. So much tile needs replacing in my house right now. Bathrooms and kitchen.
Stacey says
TILE ME! What a fabulous giveaway! I would love win this. We currently have a kitchen remodel project that’s on hold because we ran out of money for the backsplash. This would be the best gift I could ever get – next to my husband and kids of course! Thanks for the chance!
Danielle says
Tile Me!!!
I used to love Subway, but I’ve fallen in love with Spanish style tile!!
We are doing our backsplash in brick (fingers crossed) to continue the brick already in our house.
Cordia says
“TILE ME”!!!!
I could use new tile in my bathroom. I would love to use white subway tile in our shower/tub like you all did. Need new floors as well and wanted to go with black and white hexagon tile for that old fashioned look- maybe, I dont know yet now,lol! Of course I am in LOVE with white carerra marble tile, especially in subway tile shape in the bathroom and kitchen. I can dream cant I!
Brad C says
TILE ME! And we are loving the glass tile and natural stone look! Thanks for the opportunity!
Rachael says
Tile Me! After two bathroom remodels without the proper tools, a wet saw for our kitchen remodel is just what the doctor ordered :) Subway tiles on the backsplash and 16″ or larger squares on the floor.
Ali Fulton says
TILE ME!
Subway tile, penny tile, metallic tile, pearl tile…This giveaway is made for me! I heart tile…fingers and toes crossed!
Lauren says
TILE ME! We are just about to begin our masterbath overhaul… on the smallest budget you can imagine! We are really hoping that white subway tiles will somehow shimmy their way into our new shower, and (fingers crossed)this prize could make that happen!!!
Katherine says
TILE ME!
I love white subway tile…I could use it everywhere!
Kristin Hevel says
TILE MILE!
Holy tile. So I’m thinking a new saw so the bathroom remodel can finally be over!
Next step tile the laundry room floor… maybe a natural stone? We shall see!
Kendra Randall says
TILE ME!
My favorite tiles are white subway tiles for any kitchen like Ina Garten has i.e. Barefoot Contessa. Also, i like glass tile mosaics from floor to ceiling on shower walls, honeycomb tiles on bathroom floors, and black and white retro tiles anywhere I can put em’.
Emily Ann says
TILE ME!!
I love the recycled glass tiles they have, and I love the look of the rustic tiles surrounding a cozy fireplace.
katee says
TILE ME! Hope your move is going smoothly! I am in love with subway tile. I love white and would probably put it in my master bath. Right now we just have a tub surround and I am wanting something different…
Sam F says
“TILE ME!”
I’ve really been loving the look of glass tile. I love the translucency!

Tile Me! I would like to add a new bathroom with subway tile! and Maybe a backsplash in the kitchen.

TILE ME! I am crazy for subway tiles of any color!
Nykole says
TILE ME!
Just bought a house last summer and the kitchen is begging me for glass tiles.
Julianne says
Tile me! I will always love shiny, clean, white subway tile. I’m also loving the glass tiles these days. Your tiling post/tricks make doing it yourself look so easy! I really want to tile my countertop for starters….
Kelsey R says

I would love to re-do my bathroom with a black and white small hexagon tiled floor.
Jess says
TILE ME!
Please please please tile me! I’m dying to put a backsplash of subway tile in our kitchen. Great giveaway!!

I love the look of stainless tiles–I tried to recreate them on my basement bar with paint and gloss over wood tile board–not so good.
sally says
TILE ME! We are getting ready to add a backsplash to our kitchen! Loving the classic white subway tiles!!
ASHLEY S says
TILE ME!
I’m loving glass mosaic tiles to use as a back-splash in our verrrrry outdated kitchen. Just because a house was BUILT in the 80’s doesn’t mean it has to look like it BELONGS in the 80’s!
Ashley says
TILE ME
I’d like just about any tile…our current abode has 0 tile. We have linoleum from 1970 throughout. Yuck.
