No Mess, No Fuss Smart Tile Backsplash

I am beyond thrilled to be sharing this project with you today! I recently stumbled upon an amazing product called Smart Tiles. Have you heard of them? They are actually a peel-and-stick gel tile that looks exactly like real tile.

You can find the full DIY tutorial HERE.

I was skeptical at first, but once I saw the tile in person I was convinced to give it a try. The gel type material gives the tile a 3D appearance that mimics the look of real tile. They come in sheets and are super easy to install. I especially loved the idea of not having to rent a wet saw or deal with messy adhesive or grout. All you need is a cutting mat, level, laser level and utility knife.





The tiles are super easy to cut and went up pretty quick with only minimal cuts around the outlets and window. I wasn't too concerned about the corners since I planned on caulking them for a clean look.
In just one afternoon I was able to completely update my kitchen while my husband was at work and my kids were at school. Now that's my kind of DIY project!
