The first question a homeowner must ask themselves when considering using mosaic tile as a interior design product is, where do they want to use mosaic tiles.  Mosaic tile can be used almost anywhere in the home, however the price of mosaic tile may limit the number of choices in the home where they can be used.  If your a homeowner with a small budget just looking to add some flare to your home, the back splash in the kitchen would be a good start for using mosaic tiles.  If your a homeowner with a large budget, then tiling the bathroom floor, or doing a entire wall in a room of the home may be a option. Budget and location both play a big factor in deciding where you want to use mosaic tiles in your home. However once a homeowner has set a budget, the only question left is location of where to use mosaic tiles. So lets discuss some of the more popular places to put mosaic tiles in the home.

Not only does it add a great look to the overall appearance of the kitchen space, it is also a great way to protect the wall from moisture, grease, and splatter.  Mosaic tiles are easy to maintain, as well as being easy to clean.  Mosaic tile is also a good choice for the kitchen back splash because kitchen back splashes often don't have much square footage, and mosaic tiles can get pricey, and most homeowners budgets are small when looking to add interior design projects. The variety of colors and shapes also match well with the popular counter top finishes, such as granite and formica.

Another popular location for using mosaic tile is in the bathroom.  Often times one of the smallest rooms in the home, however it is one of the most used rooms in the home as well.  So it only makes sense that the bathroom is one of the most popular rooms to remodel in the home. Given the small area, it often times makes it a more affordable area to use mosaic tile. Bathroom also have more areas needing protection from water as well, and mosaic tile is a great product to protect floors and walls from water.  Mosaic tiles also make great borders and floor coverings in tile showers. We have also seen homeowners get creative in the bathroom, using mosaic tiles as borders in wainscots. As you can see there are many ways to use mosaic tiles in the bathroom.

Another popular interior design idea of 2015 using mosaic tiles has been using mosaic tile in accent walls. While painting a wall a different color has been the most popular way to form a accent wall in the room, creative homeowners are finding ways to differentiate their home from other people's home.  One of the most creative ways we have seen is using mosaic tile on a entire wall to create a accent wall in a room.  Although it can be a expensive way to create a accent wall, mosaic tile will definitely make your home stick out from others, especially in today's tract built home neighborhoods.  Some of the more popular uses of mosaic tile as a accent walls are in the bathroom wall where the sink and mirrors are, on the living room wall around the fireplace, as well as the bedroom wall where the television is mounted.  If creativity is your thing, the possibilities of using mosaic tiles in accent walls are unlimited.
