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

Krista says
TILE ME! I would love to turn our drab master bath into a spa-like natural stone retreat (my husband will fall in love with the saw and hopefully decide to tile more than just the bathroom…wink, wink). :)
Boss woman says
TILE ME! I adore pennyround tiles–simultaneously modern and retro.
Ashley says
TILE ME!
My kitchen *really* needs a backsplash. I am loving glass tile, but I’ll likely go with something a bit more classic, lest glass tile becomes the next avocado appliance.
Nicole says
TILE ME!
I’m loving subway tiles at the moment. Would love to the kitchen in a vertical pattern.
Marge says
TILE ME!
I’m needing something to complement my KT for my KT backsplash.
dm says
TILE ME!
We’re redoing the bathroom in the basement in a natural stone, then next up is a glass tile backsplash in the kitchen. This would REALLY help out, just saying!

I really love glass tile. I want to put a green and brown glass tile backsplash in our kitchen when we are ready to tackle it.

I am loving glass tiles right now. Especially when they are in a slate color! I think as a backsplash it looks AWESOME!
Stacey says
This would be perfect we just bought our 2nd house and will be doing a lot of updating.
Stephanie says
TILE ME!
I’m totally a metallic subway tile girl. Nothing like a little pop of glam!
Chanda says
Tile Me!
I’m loving the simple white subway that we did on our kitchen backsplash. As soon as we save enough the plan is to do the same thing in our bathroom along with a marble hex tile on the floor.
Kristen J. F. says
TILE ME!!!! I want beautiful subway tile to adorn our bathroom at some point!! And I want a tile backsplash! Oh and a tile kitchen floor! :D
Rebekah says
Tile me! I’d like any tile compared to what is up on our (rented) kitchen walls. Floral wallpaper that is made to LOOK like little floral tiles. Beautiful (note sarcasm).
Suzi D. says
TILE ME!
I’d love to do a funky, colorful, maybe even patterned, tile backsplash in my kitchen!
Bethany says
“TILE ME”
NicoleK says

Crazy generous giveaway!! Wow! Thank you.
I am dying to retile our kitchen with a very safe and classic white subway tile =) But our master bath??? That’s a different story! I want to have some fun colors up there.
Fingers crossed =)
Kristen says
TILE ME!!!!!!!! Would love to tile our kitchen.
mel zeiger says
TILE ME!!! oh please let me win!! We are redoing both our bathrooms and I am loving the soft looking white marble tile!
Kelly says
TILE ME!
Ahhh this would be the best Christmas gift ever! We’re renting a ’50s home and the landlord has finally loosened the strings to let us take on some projects. Bathrooms with oooold yellow subway tile and menagerie vinyl wallpaper = top of the list!
Good luck moving!!
Mary in AZ says
TILE ME!!!!!!! Love this giveaway! I would love some beveled subway tile for our bathroom!
Steven says
TILE ME!
Right now anything other than the ugly linoleum covering that is down in both bathrooms would work for me.
Ashley Ez says
TILE ME
I LOVE Natural Stone. And we are in the middle of a bathroom reno ourselves! Luckily, its our “spare” so we aren’t borrowing showers!
Good Luck with your move!
Caroline says
TILE ME!!
We are doing a complete bathroom renovation starting in January. We are in love with white subway tile with grey grout for the walls and we want to do something fun for the floor (TBD)! We can’t wait!
Reba says
Tile Me!!
Imperial Bianco crazed subway would be the perfect fit for our bathroom reno –but really, anything would be an improvement over the sad, sad vinyl liner (which also blocks the window!)
Molly says
TILE ME!!
I am in love with subway tile and patterned floor tile designs. Our bathroom currently has some nasty vinyl linoleum.
Karen says
TILE ME! I’ve been waiting to find the perfect tiles for my new kitchen backsplash!
JAG says
TILE ME! New slate floor for the kitchen to replace the dated terra cotta.
Gretchen says
TILE ME!
Love the Metro Glass look in a kitchen.
Sherry says
Tile Me. I love glass tile. I’d do that in the bathroom. And then my favorite for a kitchen is white subway tile. I don’t know what it is but I love that classic, clean look.
Julie says
TILE ME pleaseeee. Bathroom could use some updating…
claire says
TILE ME!!!
White subway tile!
Lyndsey Wallace says
Tile me! My husband and I just had a baby girl in October and will be moving to a larger house in a few months. We are already planning our renovations, which include tiling both baths, the laundry room and backslash. I love neutral subway tiles and vintage designed white tiles for the baths.
Sue H says
Tile Me!
I would choose between retiling our fireplace with rustic stone mosaic (it currently has MAUVEish square tiles) or creating a backsplash in our kitchen, recycled glass tiles (it is currently painted to look like faux tiles).
Notorious MLE says
TILE ME! Subway Tile all the way!
Seannon says
TILE ME! I love the way tile looks. We’ve got a couple of original peachy-pink tile bathrooms in the house we’re closing on, and the tile isn’t in great shape. We’re looking at building a custom Japanese soaking tub (ofuro style) and an overhead rain shower in the space of a near useless 5 ft bathtub, plus a floor-to-ceiling tile job with the amazing SplatGirl’s master bathroom as an inspiration. http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/ny/post-your-baby/readers-bathrooms-splatgirls-blue-lagoon-019278 is a good link to check out her amazingness.
Tile is awesome in so many ways. It’s easy to clean, it’s fresh, it’s cool in the summer and with a nice radiant heat system, warm in the winter. Tile is one of the few things that lets your creative designs shine- not everyone can make amazing parquet floors, but almost anyone can lay amazing mosaics and create great patterns of tile. You can also get it in colors it’s near impossible to find in other things- I can easily make a fab blue and green backsplash in exactly the colors I want, vs. the horrible color choices in most other building materials (the only thing with more color flexibility is paint). It’s an amazing medium for building in.
Kelly says
TILE ME!!!!
my husband & I are right smack dab in the middle of our bathroom reno tile-job and we are reusing the 1900 vintage 2×6 and accent tiles that were in the old bathroom, and bought new crackle tile from- you guessed it, Tile Shop- we found them thru you!
Becky says
TILE ME!
I would love to replace our kitchen backsplash and while I’m not sure exactly what tile I want to use, I would be absolutely kid-in-a-candy-store excited to get to start this project with such a great giveaway!
Natalie says
TILE ME!! My husband and I are dying to redo our bathroom -currently we have “pepto bismol” pink tile that’s been painted over with a tile refinishing kit. The pink tile is already peeking through as the steam from the shower pulls away the paint! I like natural stone tile.
Nadia says
Tile Me! Right now, I love ANY tile, as I suffer through vaccuuming the carpets every day!
Debbie S says
TILE ME!!! I love The Tile Shop :) We just finished demo of our kitchen backsplash and are ready to buy crisp white subway tiles. We also plan to re-tile our two bathrooms. This is a great giveaway!!!!
Kara Dame says
Tile Me! I love the stainless steel look but I also love bigger, natural stones depending on where you put them.
Trish says
Tile Me!!!
Would love tile around our fireplaces and on our kitchen floor – oh yeah!!
Danielle A. says
Tile me!! I want a warm stone in our kitchen!!!! Pretty pretty please- the linoleum in our kitchen is soooo bad!
Allison says
TILE ME!
Skinny glossy white subway tile, horizontally placed!
bfish says
TILE ME please.
Designs in 1″ hex or square tiles (on floor) — always and forever a classic!
Ann K. says
TILE ME! I would love some pretty glass tile for my kitchen! And I am pretty good at taking the DIY route.
Debi says
TILE ME! This would be such a cool solution to a bathroom problem I have…
I hope all goes well with the closing and move!
