CK on Sep 03, 2014Are you considering the decorative squares because you want a different looking countertop? Have you considered any of the various countertop kits and paints you apply over you existing countertop? Rustoleum has a countertop 'refinishing' kit. They also have a simple paint that'll give a one color appearance. There's a kit from Gianni. Google these and you can get details.Helpful Reply

Cecelia on Sep 04, 2014Hey Sharon, no photos I'm afraid, but I simply used 6x6 tiles from Home Depot and 4x4 for the back splash and bull nose. Used sanded grout as it gave a nice texture to the tile. Don't be afraid of this. I didn't pre sand. If your countertop is uneven, just use extra set under those tiles to level the surface. Only problem I had was the sink area, getting the fit right. Be sure to measure twice....I also used the left over 4x4 to make a chair rail to tie the look throughout the room. I did a bottom and top frame around those tiles with quarter round.Helpful Reply
