Kitchen Tile Murals and Mosaics, Designed By Our Creative
Customers
Restaurant meals are out. Dining in is in! With a lot of
common sense, many Americans are opting to serve up better, more
affordable meals at home instead of depending on takeout and
restaurant meals these days, and this means families are spending
more time in their kitchens. We think this is a positive and
healthy trend, and because the kitchen is coming back into style as
the hub of the home, homeowners are starting to look at their
kitchens with a more critical eye. The kitchens in most modern
homes are as vanilla as a sugar cookie. The more time you spend in
your kitchen, the more important it starts to seem that this space
reflects you! Cape Cod Treasure Chest customer, Robin Boan,
decided it was time to add her own personal touch to the plain,
white kitchen of her beachfront home. She created a kitchen tile
mural over the sink and another little kitchen tile mosaic over the
stove. The results are beautiful to see and loaded with
personality:
Here's a closeup shot of the kitchen tile mosaic design over the
stove. Robin chose colorful ceramic tiles from our Fish Tiles collection and this is in keeping with
the seaside setting of her family's home:
Robin says,"These pictures also include the magnet that you sent
me in which I took the magnet off and used the tile over the
stove.The little 4" tile was a great starting point for a wonderful
back splash. My daughter walked in the beach condo today and said
"Mom, you have vision. It's beautiful!". Needless to say I was
quite pleased.
We share Robin's pride in a job well done! Adding a kitchen tile
mural or kitchen tile mosaic brings new and vibrant life to a
once-bland space and lets the head cook of the household make a
personal statement about their joy in cooking. All across America,
kitchens are starting to be where the real action is, and they
deserve to be both beautiful and functional! Take a look at your
own kitchen today and ask yourself if it looks like a place people
would enjoy spending time. Tile mosaics and murals are an
affordable way to go from drab to dynamic in your kitchen.
A Firepit With Fabulous Ceramic Tile Flair!
In parts of the country where the weather is fine year-round, or
where summer days are just too good to waste indoors, many families
enjoy an outdoor living or cooking space. Firepits create a focal
point for relaxing with family and friends on the patio or in the
garden, relishing a great meal, or sipping a hot drink as the stars
come out overhead. Valued customer, Cynda, personalized her firepit
by adding a ceramic tile to it that brings back happy memories of
her trips to Key West. Look at what a wonderful, creative job she
did!
Cynda says,"We bought this fire pit with 8x8 brown tiles. I
wanted to add my personal touch so thought adding tile pieces from
places we have vacationed or visited would be a great conversation
piece. I love my first tile. We travel to Key West
often. Just looking at it brings back so many good and happy
memories. My next purchase will be the Conch Shell Tile!! Thanks so much for the
quick delivery, no shipping cost and a hand painted tile of very
high quality. We Love It!!"
The tile used in Cynda's firepit project is from our exciting
Lighthouse Tile collection. We think
it's fascinating that a customer can make a momento of her favorite
vacation by incorporating a ceramic tile into an everyday object -
something to her remind her of happy times and put her in a good
mood. In addition to the fish and lighouse tiles shown on this
page, we have a special collection of really exquisite Cafe and Gourmet themed
tiles in our miscellaneous tile section, ideal for bringing a
touch of glowing color to an indoor or outdoor kitchen. Let us show
you just a few to spark your imagination:
It's a treat for us to see the remarkable things customers are
doing with our ceramic tiles in their kitchens and outdoor living
spaces. Because the kitchen is the place good food is prepared with
love for your family, it deserves to be the liveliest place in the
home. The essential ingredient of great cooking is creativity. You
master the basics - how to cook rice properly, how to make a fresh
salad, lump-free mashed potatoes, spaghetti sauce with zing. As you
gain confidence, you begin to riff on basic recipes like an
artistic jazz musician. You discover that fresh herbs turn a plain
soup into a dish fit for a king and that pizza crust made from
scratch may just be the best thing you've ever tasted in your life.
Before you know it, you may be trying your hand at Greek dolmas,
chow mein and enchilladas! The kitchen becomes your thinking place,
your dreaming and creating place. It's only fitting that your
surroundings should match the brightness of your ideas, and we love
the way a few carefully chosen decorative tiles turn a blank space
into your space.
