Who said tiles were just for walls and floors? Using tile in unexpected places is becoming a hot trend in interior design. Manufacturers are creating everything from living room furniture embossed with glass mosaic tiles to tiled light fixtures.
But don’t forget the bathroom just yet. Tubs covered in tiny mosaic tiles are making a big splash. But we’re not talking about that plain ol’ wall-matching mosaic tile skirt on a drop-in tub. No, sir: these are glamorous and luxurious mosaic bathtubs with distinctive shapes, patterns and attention-grabbing features. Tiles can easily turn an ordinary bathtub into a work of art.
