Fab Freebie: Tiles For Miles

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see our winners!***

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.

Tile Shop Beauty Shots

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?

Tile Shop Gift Card

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
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The lower 48 United States
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

******************************

Before we get to the winners names, everyone should know that you automatically get $20 off any order over $200 through the holiday. Not too shabby, eh?

Our two extremely lucky winners (as selected by random.org) are… Nadia (who just starting a huge kitchen remodel) and Heidi Kruger (who’s looking to do subway tile in her kitchen and to re-tile two bathrooms) Congrats!

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just take them on to reward our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from The Tile Shop.

    Tile me! I’d love to re-do my master bathroom but i think in the spirit of giving and Christmas I would give this to my parents. They have some renovations they’ve been needing to do and I think this would fit the bill just perfectly!!!

    Right now, I love the tiles that have a textured look, like wood grain or linen. I saw some gorgeous rectangular tile that were dark brown with a linen look and I would love to put that in my laundry room.

    Looking to redo our master bath, first in a long line of renovations for our 92 year old home. I yearn for natural spa-esque tile … anything beats my current dreary, moldy shower liner.

    TILE ME! We are tile addicts. We have our kitchen done in Spanish tile and our bathroom done in travertine. We had to rent a wet saw one time during a not-so great DIY experience involving slicing through a floor made of airplane runway concrete reinforced with thick rebar. Gotta love living in old former Air Force base housing! :)

    TILE ME!!! PLS!

    I’m remodeling my 1973 kitchen and this is exactly what I need. My style is tradional modern with a touch of glam. I’ve been in love with cararra marble tile for quite some time. I would like a glass tile with marble in it. Hey if I win this gift card and they don’t have it. I’ll settle for a white subway tile. Anything to save me money.

    This would be great to update our 1950’s bathroom baby blue 1″ square tile floor and 4″ tile matching baby blue walls.

    What would it get replaced with? I’m thinking clean white subway tiles with and accent that looks beach-glass like for the walls.

    The practical side of me loves the neutrals and stone look. The fun and funky side of me is loving subway tile, glass tiles of every color, and combinations and colors that would normally be reserved for accents!
