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

I would love to pick out new tile for our bathrooms and kitchen and get some classic white hexagonal tile for the bathroom floors. I’m envisioning a really serene color for the wall tiles, like an aqua blue. And I want classic white subway tile for the kitchen backsplash!
maggi says
“TILE ME!”
There are only 2 things left to finish in our kitchen renovation that we began in October
1.Tile backsplash (we want a golden glass tile)
2.Window sills
Plus my birthday is on the 15th so it would be a great Birthday present if I won and we could finish this dang renovation before 2011.

Payton Junkin says
TILE ME!!! Oh how the kitchen needs a renovation!!!
Christie says
TILE ME!!!!!
My husband and I have just decided to redo our kitchen. Seeing this post this morning was literally like the clouds had parted and angels started to sing. (Okay, maybe a tad dramatic but you get my drift) This is EXACTLY what we need to kick start our project! :-)
We are loving glass mosaic tiles. I think something like that would work really well in our little yellow kitchen.
Sarah Whitney says
TILE ME! Trying to decide on tile for our guest bathroom – do I keep it simple and use something similar to what we used in the master bath (white subway) or try something new…..
Carolyn says
TILE ME!
I’m still in love with the clear glass subway tiles. So clean and chic!

andie says
TILE ME!
Tara says
Tile Me!!
Oh I would love to win. We have the worst linoleum in our bathrooms and laundry room. I would tile our master bathroom shower too. Definitely natural stone. Please pick me!
Corrie says
Tile Me! I just closed on my house last friday, and I have dream to redo my kitchen and get rid of the 1960s brown glass tile and put in something to match the brick floors.
Martha says
TILE ME!
I’ve been dreaming of slate tile in our enclosed front porch and the boys’ bathroom tile needs replaced before it rots out the structure behind it. Third on the list is an update to the backsplash tile that is also continued around the back of the counters. That may not make sense. I had my husband construct an 8″ backsplash around our open counters to shield some of the kitchen cooking clutter from the dining area and sitting area and I ran tile along the back. So this gift would be awesome to win!
sylvie says
Tile Me!
I really love the classic subway tiles.
Elizabeth says
TILE ME!
I am loving clean white subway tiles for bathroom walls, and vintage black & white hexagon tile for floors.
Nora Ruffels says
TILE ME! I am looking to update my circa 1982 brown tile bathroom. I am into simple white subway tiles right now for my kitchen and bathroom.
Noah says
TILE ME!
Kathryn says
TILE ME!
I’ve been dreaming of tearing down the 70’s pink bathroom tile and replacing it with white subway tile in the shower, plus white hex tiles for the floor, ever since I bought my house. I’d love a subway tile backsplash in the kitchen too, but perhaps in a natural stone, rather than ceramic.
Heather Millington says
TILE ME! In need of some serious silver backsplashin!
Jill says
TILE ME!!!!! We are about to buy our second home and are retiling the guest bathroom and love clean white subway tiles!
Heather says
TILE ME!!!
I’m in heaven…..
Lindsey says
TILE ME!
I’m needing some inspiration for a tile backsplash for our kitchen. We are also thinking about redoing our master bath..this would be perfect!!
Stephanie says
TILE ME! We dream about renovating our bathroom with a rich, travertine tiled walk-in shower to replace the ancient bathtub we inherited from the house’s original owners.
Jeff Nichol says
TILE ME!
Nothing like a great mosaic tile.
Chatelaine B says
TILE ME!! I’m all about glass mosaic. next project is actually the fireplace surround…….. Good luck on your move :)
Danya says
TILE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh.my.gosh. Literally, my eyes welled up with tears. Kind of embarrassing when you’re at work crying tears of joy because a favorite blog is hosting a giveaway. Okay, I may be a little sleep deprived too, read: 6 month old teether in the house.
My master bathroom has been out of commission for 2 years because of a faulty shower pan and for two years I have been reading YHL and clicking on The Tile Shop, and drooling over the glass penny round tiles. Envisioning myself cleaning them, petting them, just staring at them as they cover the walls of my shower.
If I won this giveaway I would take the spirit of DI-Y-HL and FINALLY get this project done.
I’m going to go blow my nose now – and load up my cart on The Tile Shop just in case I actually win this thing.
Pamela says
Tile Me!
Allyce says
TILE ME! Oh boy, oh boy. Husband and I were JUST dreaming about a shiny, neutral color array of back splash for the kitchen. Oh AND then, we were envisioning stand only tiled shower for our master bath–ohhhh the possibilities!
Suzanne says
TILE ME!! I would love a bright colored tile on my kitchen back splash! Something out of the ordinary, please
Ty says
TILE ME!
I’d love some of their stone floor options for our home!
Steph H says
TILE ME!
I love the look of a kitchen back splash with mosaic tile. Like you two, my husband and I are huge Dexter fans (hope you got to catch the season finale last night!). I’ve been admiring the random mosaic backsplash in Dexter’s condo/apartment this season and dreaming about doing something similar in our home.
sarah says
tile me!
subway tile in a kitchen with beautiful open shelving (in chrome please). someday that dream kitchen will be mine!
Mindy says
TILE ME!
Oh wow, this giveaway would be perfect for me to win right now because we are in the process of remodeling our kitchen and we are going to tile the wall behind the sink!
My favorite tile is by far glass. I love it when it’s got a swirled effect to it. We are thinking of possibly using a grey tile in our kitchen. It’s neutral but grey is still interesting to look at!
Jordan says
TILE ME!!! I LOVE warm colored stone. Can’t wait to buy that first house and make it beautiful!
Kevin says
Tile me!
My wife would love to have a nice backsplash in the kitchen.
Sara says
Tile me!!!!!!!! I am loving a carrera marble backsplash I saw in Lonny. The tiles were 1X3 inches and was an amazing clean look. Good luck today guys!
