Bamboo Subway Tile in Chestnut
For those wanting to be environmentally friendly without sacrificing style, try our Chestnut color Bamboo Subway tiles together with our Latte color Solana Glass Mosaic tiles. These two tiles in the colors above show very well together and would upgrade any backsplash, accent wall, or kitchen island marvelously.

Try using the Bamboo Subway Tile in 3 x 6 as your primary tile with the Latte color glass mosaic tiles as a well placed accent strip. The Chestnut and Latte colors play off each other quite nicely with the tan color in the Latte blend being a nice match with the soft shades of the Chestnut bamboo tiles.

We are always looking for project photos showing our tiles used in different combinations and this combination is one of our favorites. For any of our blog readers who may want to try out the Chestnut Bamboo subway tiles and the Latte color glass mosaic tiles we would be willing to offer a generous tile discount in exchange for nice photos of the completed project.

Contact our sales team at 1 888 260-7371 and tell us you saw our Blog post about our Bamboo and glass tiles and whether you would like to use the two tiles in your upcoming tile project. We look forward to speaking with any of our clients who may have an interest in these or any of our other tile combinations.

On Friday we talked about one of our new Solana Glass Mosaic tile blends in the Seychelles color and today we are going to tell you about our new color Oatmeal. This color we believe will make a wonderful complement to many of the lighter shade porcelain tiles on the market as well as mocha color travertines and darker shade marbles. The colors in our Oatmeal blend were designed to be neutral in their hues yet strong and defined enough to capture many of the colors found in the typical home’s kitchen or bath.

Since most of the countertops, fixtures, and lighting found in today’s homes fall in to the neutral color family we wanted a glass mosaic tile blend that would work well with many of the combinations of these items that a homeowner might choose. As a result, our Oatmeal blend will fall right in to place on a kitchen backsplash, a wet bar as an accent strip, a tub surround or the face of a tub as an accent piece, or an accent strip in a shower to complement the primary material which might be stone.

Our Solana glass mosaic tiles are suitable for interior and exterior projects so the Oatmeal blends and any of our other blends can be used in swimming pools as waterline tiles or as an accent for an outdoor BBQ.

The possibilities are endless and if we can be of any assistance in your project design phase please don’t hesitate go give us a call anytime.

Our Solana Glass Mosaic Tile collection recently added three new colors to our color lineup and one of those is a color we are beginning to love called Seychelles. Seychelles is hard not to love given that (the country) is a small and beautiful island off the coast of East Africa with some of the prettiest scenery in the world.

In our Seychelles glass mosaic tile blend we incorporated some of the colors one might find near a beach area and we put them together in what is fast becoming one of our favorite glass blends.

The colors in our Seychelles blend will go very well with walnut or oak cabinets in the kitchen as a glass mosaic tile backsplash choice, or as a nice accent strip with a travertine or marble shower material in a bathroom project. Our Solana glass mosaic tiles come mesh mounted for easy installation and they can be ordered in any quantities.

Try out our Seychelles blend for your kitchen or bathroom tile project and you will be pleased with the beautiful colors this blend will bring to any room in your home.

With the introduction of our Solana Beveled Glass Subway tiles we knew we also needed a glass tile trim piece for use on projects that have an exposed edge. Thus, we are also introducing a collection of glass tile quarter rounds in matching colors to our Solana Glass subway tile collection and our Solana beveled subway tile collection.

There are eight glass tile quarter round colors even though our Solana glass subway tiles only consist of seven colors at this time. This is because we added a black color quarter round for those projects where folks might want to add a dark trim as a decorative piece with white or lighter color tiles.

Our glass tile quarter rounds are sold by the piece and they are in stock and ready for immediate shipment.

It would be an understatement to say that the wait for our newest product to arrive was a long one. We finally received the product shipment last week and here it is for you our wonderful customers to see.

The newest member of our Solana brand of glass tiles is our Beveled edge Glass Subway Tile collection designed, manufactured, and sold exclusively by us at AnchorBayTile. We put our hearts in to this new product and we hope our customers are receptive to the results.

There are five colors in the collection including Cappuccino, Khaki, Mint, Smooth Grey, and Snowflake. The tile comes as loose pieces for easy installation and is now in stock at our warehouse in Arizona.

We also designed and are now stocking a glass quarter round tile piece to use when a trim piece is needed for a project. More on this via our Blog later in the week.

Keep in mind for those now considering our Beveled edge Glass Subway Tiles, it is important when making cuts to these tiles to use a proper tile blade in order to achieve a smooth cut. Porcelain or ceramic tile blades will not do the trick, especially and even more so on beveled glass tiles where you have high-to-low points on the same piece of glass tile. So we are making the effort to advise our customers when purchasing our glass subway tile products to either source a glass tile blade locally near your home or we sell glass tile blades in either a 7 inch size or a 10 inch size via our online tile store.

If you have any questions about our new beveled edge glass subway tile product or any one of our other products please don’t hesitate to contact us via email or phone at 888 260-7371.

We have added our newest product to our tile lineup this week with the addition of our Glazed Porcelain Penny Round tiles which many of our customers have been asking us to offer for some time. The mesh-mounted tiles are in stock and they are available in either black or white in a glossy finish.

Penny Rounds have been a popular choice for owners of historic homes designed in the Arts & Crafts, Cottage and Bungalow styles. Penny Round tiles are suitable for floors and walls and since our tiles are made from a porcelain material they can be used for interior or exterior projects.

Order your Penny Round samples today by visiting our website and clicking the blue Order Samples button. Samples are shipped within 24 – 48 hours of receipt when received anytime Monday through Friday.

We are probably biased but we believe our Elements decorative ceramic tiles offer one of the most beautiful opportunities to add unique design and color to any area of the home. Our patterns such as the Tubac and Clifton tiles when placed together show a beautiful continuous pattern that immediately will bring attention and a focus to any area where the tiles are installed.

The Elements decorative ceramic tiles work well as wainscoting in a kitchen or bathroom area. And one of the more popular uses of these tiles has been as an accent wall in a home or commercial location. Our customers tell us that they are delighted with how well the Elements tiles transform an area and how eye-catching the designs are when installed over a large area.

For those considering any of our Elements tiles please contact us before ordering. We would love to have more photos of any completed Elements projects and we would be willing to discount any larger Elements tile orders in exchange for nice photos of the completed project.

We wanted to share a photo of a recent tile installation from one of our customers who used our Solana Glass Mosaic tiles in 1 inch by 1 inch for their kitchen project. We thought the kitchen came out wonderful and the colors of the Meadow blend really do coordinate well with the customer’s kitchen environment.

We thought that the colors in the Meadow glass mosaic tile blend really bring out the colors in the kitchen. You say, what are you talking about since the counters are charcoal/black and the cabinets are white. Precisely our point. If one tries to coordinate colors exactly either with the cabinets or the counters you will never be able to have a good color match simply because each component in the area comes from a different manufacturer and every manufacturer has their own color charts.

Choosing a different but a complimentary color to ones cabinets and counters can often bring out the colors in a kitchen or bath because all of the different components coordinate and work well together. Keep these points in mind when choosing colors in your kitchen or bath and you will be happy that you did.

With summer fast approaching we have noticed an uptick in interest from our customers planning DIY projects in their home. We love speaking to and assisting our customers who are taking on their tiling projects since installing your own material is a great way to save a bucket load of $$$ for installation on tile and any other home remodeling project.

In that regard we have a great collection of glass mosaic tiles that are priced very affordably at $4.99 per sf. Our Coastal Blends collection consists of ten beautiful colors in neutrals blends and grey blends which are perfect for kitchens and baths. There are also several blue blends and green blends which have proven popular as a waterline tile in swimming pools and spas.

The Coastal Blends glass mosaic tiles come mesh mounted and they are sold by the sheet. For those considering glass mosaic tiles for their DIY projects where affordability and budget are a consideration give our Coastal Blends glass mosaic tiles a second look since these tiles are an affordable way to add the contemporary look of glass mosaic tiles to your home.
