In our humble opinion, white subway tile will always be a classic. If, however, you love this look but want to freshen it up a bit we've got some ideas for you!

1. Change How You Install It

While the majority of subway tile is installed in the traditional offset pattern (shown below), there are tons of other patterns you could use.

Herringbone is one of our favorites. It's a great way to add movement and interest to your backsplash.

Or, try installing your offset pattern vertically and make your space instantly look more modern.

2. Add Decorative Tile

A great way to add interest to a subway tile is to mix it with decorative tile. Whether it's a niche over the oven range or a border in a shower surround, it doesn't take much decorative tile to make a big impact.

3. Try A Crackle Glaze

Being the tile nerds that we are, we've got a soft spot for crackle glazes and think they look really pretty on subway tile.

4. Mix Your Colors & Finishes

Why choose just one finish when you could pick three? Here we used similar color tones, but with three different finishes: a crackle, a satin, and a gloss. 

5. Dress It Up With Pearls

While we're currently sold out of the Pearl Liners shown above, I'm SO excited to announce we'll have more soon! Find all the details and sign up for our waitlist here.
