Hi guys! I'm back from a relaxing weekend. Weather was lovely and still is. I'm so happy and energized about that. How was your weekend?
You know what else makes me happy? Wood. And just recently I found really great wood wall tiles by Everitt & Schilling Tile - so I want to talk about that today.
Wood wall tiles can be a fabulous way to add some interest and depth to any space. They can warm up a room, add a pattern element, inject some texture or allow for a unique visual appeal. They can make a room feel rustic, rich, elegant and even funky, depending on your design choices. It's a different way to deal with walls, one that is not highly common and therefore, quite original, in my opinion.
The tiles you see here are made from re-claimed barn wood and up-cycled hardwood by Everitt & Schilling Tile. They can be used for entire walls or decorative detailing, backslashes or headboards, whatever your design needs. I find them so beautiful, especially the thin horizontal type, like in the first image above.
Have you ever given any thought to wood wall tiles?
See you next time,
Xx. Holly.

Yes indeed Holly they are very nice and i thought it would be nice in my kitchen between the cubboards and the counter... in rustic colors...
ReplyDeletewhat you think !!!!!
Have a nice day .....
I think you should do it! heehee :)
ReplyDeleteHope you are enjoying your day too xoxo
Yup. Love wood tiles. We did a wood tile in our restaurant, El Camino's, a few years ago. Looks fantastic! Love the top pic, especially!
ReplyDeleteCool! Is there a way to see pics of El Camino's? I'm loving the top pic too :)

I don't think I've ever even considered wood tiling. Very interesting indeed.
ReplyDeleteI think I would opt to keep it simple as some of the images above are rather busy. I can see it form patterns like mosaic but that will very much depend on the rest of the room.
Very thought provoking. I also like its reclaimed.... great find.

Thanks Tina! It is a different way to deal with walls. Could be great, as you say, depends on the space. Reclaimed is a major plus.

Hi Holly...i also love wood. Instant warmth. I wonder about tiles in a bathroom or as a back splash though. Are they more prone to water damage? Certainly, they'd be protected with a sealer but the constant vapor? If this isn't a factor, then sign me up. I really LOVE the last image too.
ReplyDeleteHey there C! Check out the comment below for info about moisture and these wood tiles.

The tiles are coated with a ceramic finish - it helps keep them from having issues in wet areas. The only place we don't recommend them obviously is the shower. We designed the coating so that they could be used in sink and tub areas. Glad that people like the way they look!
ReplyDeleteHi Aaron! Thank you so much for stopping by here to answer some reader comments. Very much appreciated :)
DeleteAnd thanks again for letting me share your tiles.
Best!
Yes, I love this look! I've been seeing these types of wood installations in really cool, hip places.
ReplyDeleteWe have a childrens clothing catalog here in the States, Crew Cuts (by J.Crew, do you get it?). They built a backdrop of wood to photograph the kids. It had a nice result.
i live in toronto
