We recently fell in love and have been working with the talented creators and team, Mercury Mosaics on tile selections. Not sure if it was the tile or the team that we loved so much! But we cannot get enough.
Laying tile can be a little bit nerve racking, especially when it is a new shape your not used to working with like these moroccan fish scale tiles. So today we wanted to provide you with a step by step tutorial on how we tiled the backsplash in our recent client kitchen renovation so you can DIY! And we even got it all down into a nice little video for you to watch too.
Have a question about this project?
My biggest challenges are cutting a tile to go over an electrical outlet and cutting trim/railing on an angle.
How do you go about cutting the tile for the electric outlets? Mine are 7” square. I’m sure I’ll find myself in a position to have to cut one outlet out of the center of a tile.
Some have suggested using a grinder. I’ve also seen mitre saw blades to dry cut angles for trim. (My DIY saw doesn’t have a decent fence.)
Thank you!

Where can I find the Jeff Court 4in x4in. Light Travertine Tumbled Wall Tile (9pack) that you demonstrated
using Iron Orchid Designs Ink in the Provincial Color----using a Black Stamp Pad with Old Dutch/French stencil design. It was wonderful!
How do you do walls in the tub surround
