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.

    I have been really really really wanting to take down the wall paper in our kitchen AND bath room and add tile. I’m thinking something neutral and stone for the bath. For the Kitchen, I would love something shiny and colorful. maybe multicolor (like the kitchen in Everybody love raymond…)

    TILE ME! Wow, what a great giveaway! I just put a fabulous glass backsplash in my kitchen, but I’ve got a whole bathroom to do next. I’d love to do something like slate on the walls and floor, with some sort of great walk in shower with a glass door. Reminds me of my favorite spa.

    I am loving the warm, neutral colours for a kitchen backsplash…but would also love to see what they have and maybe be a bit more daring as well…that’s right, going away from neutral is what I consider to be “daring”…haha.

    We have NO tile in our house but would love to add it. We’re thinking a nice back splash in the kitchen to go with our avocado walls or something for either of the bathrooms- they both need a serious pick-me-up.

    We did the dirty work a few years ago, and removed the pink 1950’s tile in our bathroom… It would be wonderful to replace the vinyl we could afford back then with a beautiful mosaic floor.

    TILE ME! (Really, tile US!) We’ve got an outdated 1950’s kitchen that would love to get a facelift with glass subway tile, and if there’s any money left on the card after that, we’d love to put some neutral beige spa tile in our master bathroom.
