A18010 - Art3d Oyster Mother of Pearl Square Shell Mosaic for Kitchen Backsplashes, Bathroom Walls, Spa Tile, Pool Tile

Contents: Beautiful thin tiles. I will be using them in some sort of fairy garden, or room, so have not actually used them yet. They will form a path, floor, or perhaps feature wall. very lovely colors in the shells.

Contents: Took a chance and ordered this tile online and what an awesome product. Very easy to work with. I watched a youtube video and did it by myself, having done some tile work in the past alongside my husband. I did all 3 of our bathrooms in one weekend. Just have to be gentle as the little tiles will separate from the netting and fall off occasionally. I didn't have any crack, so I didn't find them to be awfully fragile. I used a wet saw to cut the pieces around the faucets. If was not difficult, just tedious. Don't use the nippers. I tried that. They don't cut nicely or evenly that way. I'd buy it again.

Contents: Love, love, lovvved these! I was on the hunt for an interesting, white and cost effective tile to do a backsplash in my bathroom. I saw pearly/shell tiles at the big box home improvements stores and they were $15-25 per sheet! I fell in love with the look of pearl and thought it would go beautifully with my marble vanity top. I found this product and was super suspicious honestly. In my experience, if the price is too low, then there is a good reason. I read the reviews and decided to gamble. I won!!! These tiles are stunning. The pictures do not do a justice. They catch the light from different angles and some even have some opalescent/rainbowish effect to them. lovely! I have done lots of tiling before and I was surprised at when the box came-- it was so small! I opened it up and saw the thinnest tiles I have ever seen. I was a little bit afraid of how grouting would turn out. I used an a thin layer of white thinset and unsanded, white grout. To my surprise, It was incredibly easy to grout. In fact.. it was the easier grout job ive ever done. I wish all tiles could be this thin.. it makes filling the grout lines a breeze! Just be careful when putting on the thinset- because of the thin nature of the tile, you cant be too generous or it will squish out in between the cracks. I read somewhere on a review here that someone thought these were fake?? What a bizarre comment..I had to hand nip some of these tiles-- they are most definitely real shell..there is no doubt about it. The only con I can think of is after washing off the grout, it was pretty difficult to get the original super shine back on to the glossy tile. I suspect that sealing it will bring the high gloss appearance back. But i have yet to do so. I would buy these again and again.

Contents: Very beautiful and good quality mother of pearl and the price is the lowest of any where I have seen. I've done a few tile installs and this installation was pretty easy. Some sites say to use a 3/16 knotched trowel however I used a 1/16 square knotched trowel to keep the thinset pushing through to a minimum. If any pushes through just wipe off with a wet sponge. I used premix thinset/mastic bought at HD. Do not expect the individual squares on each tile to be strictly in line. There will be some squares that are slightly off line (maybe 1/16-1/32 of an inch) and some will be very slightly twisted but to me this does not take away from the tile. It actually makes it easier to install because if you were trying to perfectly line up every tile while installing you'd pull your hair out. Tile cuts easily with a wet saw. I even used my regular blade and did not have to use a glass tile blade. Trick for cutting on a wet saw, place two scrap pieces of regular tile (ceramic or porcelain) on the saw tray leaving a gap for the blade to slide through. Then span the mother of pearl tile across the two scrap pieces and push through the blade. The scrap pieces give a flat surface for the tile and will help hold it steady.
