Check out these beautiful subway tiles. Are you getting some good ideas yet? If you love a tile that's a little pricey, use it as an accent with traditional porcelain tiles. Tiles are available in glass, metal, marble and other natural stone. Make your own mix, keeping in mind that any extra cuts on the tile will likely increase the material and labor costs.
