almost pulled the trigger for a kitchen reno until I realized these arenāt tiles, theyāre just stickers. I guess itās not a terrible price for stickers but āself-adhering tilesā are usually real glass / ceramic tiles with adhesive backing, not paper stickers.
Well this is certainly different. Almost pulled the trigger until I realized they were just stickers. They do look nice, I just wonder how they will hold up to repeated spills and regular use and abuse.
I just watched the āhow to installā video, and Iāll admit, for fancy decals, theyāre rather neat for a quick and easy way to make a substitute tile surface.
Really impressed with the fact that they have some sort of liquid magnet properties as indicated in the 10th picture of the full coffee cup stuck to the wall!
Thatās awesome!
@chienfou Similar to how some Doctors may sometimes prescribe a med āoff-labelā for something it was not originally intended for, I could see someone using these to dress up a food trayā¦
I actually used a small number of these for a backsplash around my laundry room slop sink. They look nice, wash up easily, and arenāt too much of a pain to install (have a beer or two so you donāt go too crazy over lining them up).
So excited to see them here for this price, as that was the only thing holding me back from going for it with the wall behind the washer dryer
@athena3030 Thatās the problem. We bought this house from my parents and it was built in 1978. We are way overdue for a remodel. Maybe someday.
/giphy always dream
Iām still conflicted about these. They are kind of cheesy. Cutting the ceramic tiles for the backsplash in my kitchen was the worst part of the job, but here I could just use scissors.
I wouldnt put these in my house, they feel rubberyā¦ but theyāre awesome for rvās! I spent $100 on 10 tiles from home depot when I did mine. Got one of these for the future rv when we upgrade.

@RiotDemon Fair enough. I didnāt catch that it was the daily deal so my bad. Got it in an email embedded with other items and it didnāt say daily deal anywhere in the email or on the page that it links to.
I made the mistake of waiting to buy til 10:55pm obviously didnāt work out. Fingers crossed that there are still way too many sitting in the warehouse & that iāll have another shot soonish

Thatās another great Meh face today. Pity Iāll never see it againā¦
@shahnm Why are you so upset about this? Iāve seen you mention it in more than one place.
@shahnm @TBoneZeOriginal heās obviously overcome by sadness on a daily basis.
Perhaps he will see the meh face againā¦ when he looks in the mirrorā¦
@TBoneZeOriginal Why are you following me around and stalking me?
@shahnm Iād hardly call visiting this thread and the poll thread at 12:01am stalking.
@TBoneZeOriginal
The 17 stars and counting on @shahnmās comment would hint you might have not been stalking Meh enough.
@shahnm @TBoneZeOriginal You mean like this place that has somehow dropped off the front page?

Gonna have to head over there and bump that thread.
Tiles? They are more like stickers.
This image shows how flexible they are. Definitely not what I would call a tile.
@cengland0 Looking more like a vinyl appliquƩ than a tile, innit.
@cengland0 @ruouttaurmind Can you just imagine how cheesy those would look as a kitchen backsplash? GaaaaH!
well there it is, the most meh thing ive ever seen on Meh.
I bet wargame fans could go for those hexes.
@TellarHK Alas, the hexes are either 1.7" (flat-to-flat) or 2.0" (corner-to-corner), which is a little large for most wargames.
@TellarHK Also the squares are about 2"x2".
This is a great price for these.
@RiotDemon if you think these = ceramic tiles, it would be. As they are not ceramic, the price /= great.
@hchavers I meant what I said. I regularly see fake tiles like this for sale $5-10 a sheet.
Probably decent for some people who will never get a chance to do actual tile.
@Stallion I tile, but Iām still using these in our laundry room because life is too short.
I was literally thinking about getting some of this this evening to make my backsplash look ok until I am able to redo the kitchen properly.
I wonder if these would stick to a car?
@Steve7654
@Steve7654 I wonder if these would stick to an armadillo.
Anyone know if these are easily removable without residue?
@adamselby I found info that they can be peeled back off if you heat them up with a heat gun or hair dryer without damaging the wall.

@dominusprinceps I think these are vinyl not paper.
@dominusprinceps @mothersnakes is right, theyāre vinyl

@UFGatorHawk
@chienfou Iām more impressed that somebody found coffee with such a high iron content.
@chienfou Touche! It was late and I took it a little to literallyā¦
Perfect with these add-an-outlet stickers.
Now with FREE GFCI !!!
@mike808 donāt get me started
@mike808
I am not allowed to decorate the basement, much less any other room in the house.
@hchavers
these would be perfect if I wanted to make my kitchen counters California styleā¦in the 80āsā¦

let me know if you get tiles that look like Scrabble Tiles or Dominoes. I have a guitar to cover.
@dhelmick56 goinā for the old Rick Nielson look?
Wonder how these would look in my 70ās designed kitchen with the orange counters and dark stained cabinets.
/giphy I should update
@tnhillbillygal What are you doing in my parents kitchen
@athena3030 Thatās the problem. We bought this house from my parents and it was built in 1978. We are way overdue for a remodel. Maybe someday.

Todayās Meh face is totally Dr. Yewell from the show Defiance.
Oh fer Crissakes, this is SHELF PAPER!
@MrNews Come on, shelf paper!!
Since this is Meh, has the adhesive expiration date passed by yet?
These are super cool, but alas Iām a renter
If I owned my home Iād be all about buying these!
I wouldnt put these in my house, they feel rubberyā¦ but theyāre awesome for rvās! I spent $100 on 10 tiles from home depot when I did mine. Got one of these for the future rv when we upgrade.

WORKER BEES! HERCULES! TURKEY GREASE! AWESOME!
@jnicholson0619 Same, I bought mine for my RV.
Ooooooo! Puffy stickers!
I just found out that these are the same price on MorningSave.
VMP members can take advantage of a small discount if you buy it over there instead.
@cengland0 vmp discounts donāt apply to the daily deal.
@RiotDemon Fair enough. I didnāt catch that it was the daily deal so my bad. Got it in an email embedded with other items and it didnāt say daily deal anywhere in the email or on the page that it links to.

Today I saw cases of the real glass tiles, nany colors, at the Habitat for Humanity store. Very dangerous place. Iāve been pondering for hours.
@MoonMoonDog I have never been in one. I only just saw one recently in my travels. It peaked my curiosity.
