Tile Shapes

Tile shapes are essential particularly for aesthetic purposes to attach a certain character to the rooms or complete a particular theme. They come in a variety of shapes, be it the subway, hexagon, chevron, square, herringbone, diamond, or rhomboid tiles, which are cut in uniform shapes. However, for mosaics, the scenario is a bit different. So, it’s better not to bracket it out with other tile shapes. Well, what differentiates mosaic tiling from the rest is that they can be arranged quite randomly. As mentioned above, while tiles are cut in uniform shapes, mosaics allow for experimenting and assembling different sized, colored, and shaped pieces. For the same reason, mosaic tiling can be considered a work of art and a great way to personalize your home.

How to install mosaic tile backsplash?

Let’s first start with all the materials you need, which are thin-set or mastic, grout, a measuring tape, a trowel, spacers, towel, water, a tile nipper, a tiling float, and gloves for hand protection, eye protection, and sponges.

Preparation

After getting the materials ready, first, you need to measure the backsplash area and make sure to outline electric layouts to make the required cutouts. If you want to go for a partial tiling, draw the pattern on the wall (If not, you can skip this part). To do so, you can use a different flat surface with the same measurements to create the design. The flat surface needs to be hard enough to carry the weight of the tiles. Also, check if the flat surface fits the backsplash area. If not, make the necessary adjustments.

Installation

Now it is the nipper’s time to come into play, which means that you can start cutting the tiles and arranging them on the template. Before starting, wear eye protection to avoid any accidents. As you start your design, make sure to leave some gaps between the pieces about ¼ inch apart. When the design is complete, you need to lay them on the backsplash area by using your template guide. The application area needs to be clean and dry. If you don’t want to apply the tiles directly to your wall, then you can use a concrete board and install it onto the wall. The next stage includes gluing every single piece and sticking on the backsplash zone. Then with the tiling float, press on the tiles to ensure uniformity.


Again, don’t forget to leave spaces between the tiles. Let it dry for 24 -48 hours and come back to apply the grout.
However, if your design is pre-made and the tiles come in sheets, then you can spread the adhesive on the wall with the trowel and install the tiles easily. Use spacers between to ensure the spaces are even. Use the float to make tiles secured and firm on the wall.

Grouting

If you get a pre-made grout, it will make things much easier for you. Wear gloves while applying the grout. Applying a generous amount of grout is important to get rid of the sharp edges and strengthen the mosaic tiles. Then, clean the surface with a damp cloth. The last stage is to feel proud for having created your mosaic tile backsplash. Also, it is always recommended to consult the manufacturer before rolling up your sleeves!

Four white counter stools with modern vibes accompany the second island. Additionally, with a rich repertoire of materials, the kitchen feels rich texture-wise, suiting the Mediterranean spirit perfectly. Even though it is mostly clad in white, it still manages to evoke earthy feelings.

White Hexagon Mosaic Tile Backsplash

Hexagons, also known as honeycomb tiles, with very intriguing geometric structures are one of the best options to make bold statements with your backsplash. By playing with their format sizes, you can create different textural and visual schemes. When their versatility is combined with mosaics’ flexible and fluid identity, the outcome will never be disappointing.

Two-Tone Cabinets with Brass Accents and White Mosaic Tile Backsplash

What we love most in this U-shaped kitchen is the blue-white hexagon tile backsplash harmonizing with white countertops, while the rest of the kitchen mimics this partnership in pairs. For instance, the shaker-style white overhead cabinets are paired with dark blue base cabinets, achieving a cohesive contrast. The glass front detailing and brass accents add visual interest and texture. And the kitchen’s rich bold fixtures are most evident in pinecone pendant lights with golden touches hanging stylishly over the peninsula. The multi-purpose peninsula with a blue torso increases the futility of the kitchen by offering extra storage space and an eat-in dining zone. In the kitchen’s overall look, the dynamic relationship between the white and blue is well balanced. And this partnership is enriched by brass hardware and under-cabinet accent lights creating a cozy atmosphere. Additionally, light-tone hardwood flooring supports the white cabinets in lightening up the interiors.

Top-to-Toe White Kitchen with Quartz Countertops and Copper Hardware

This all-white kitchen projects the spirit of the transitional kitchen with the recessed-panel cabinets by avoiding being too modern and too traditional. It showcases a sophisticated version of simplicity with its white palette and cabinet design. Yet, on the other side, it is enriched with copper hardware, herringbone backsplash, and white quartz countertops. These elements incorporate different textures, including man-made and organic materials, enriching the kitchen’s tactile and visual repertoire. All of them are blended nicely, offering a neat look with smart solutions. For example, the range hood hidden in a cabinet with its own storage space prevents a cluttered look, maintaining the uniformed look of the kitchen. However, to avoid a white sterile look, medium-tone hardwood flooring with natural stains comes into play to add charm and flirt with the copper elements.
