- Art3d peel and stick tiles are smart and unique products that will simplify your life. The tiles can be easily installed directly over existing panels or smooth surface. Especially designed for kitchen backsplashes and bathroom backsplashes, the tiles are resistant to the heat of stovetops and the humidity of bathrooms.

A hint about starting on inside corners. At 3:25 he mention cutting off the tabs to begin a corner. This will leave an unmatched pattern in the corner. If you cut a tile sheet in the middle or so and put each piece together at the corner the pattern matches and looks more finished. I made this mistake in my 1st corner before recognizing this. Good thing I started out in a relatively hidden corner.
I tried this and the issue I had is you didn’t have the overlap section on one side. Granted the open patterns will match up like a puzzle but it’s not the same since you don’t have that overlap space and it’s a bit of a pain to line up
@@alnsmclm I am thinking to simply score the first (corner) sheet and tamp into corner but then the sheets on "side wall" would be reverse installed, right? Does it matter?
Thanks. I thought what he said wasn’t correct
I used to do wallpapering. Just like that, you cut the right edge at a corner to make a straight edge to butt up against the corner. You can then cut the left edge of the piece adjacent to that and butt it right against. It may seem counter-intuitive to not have the patter match, but the eye doesn't seem to care about the match at a corner. I have done many, many rooms this way, and no one ever asks to have it redone. It may be an optical illusion, but maybe not. However, the eye doesn't look for a match, perhaps because the corner is a natural split in the view. You may do it either way, good luck no matter what. :)
First of all, I very much appreciate that you, as independent individuals, took the time to video record and post the installation of your tile to CZcams. I've watched the video seven times now and have found that it has left far more questions than answers for me. This isn't a bad thing because their questions that would certainly come up during the course of my upcoming installation so it's best that I address them now.
There are a ton of questions that just aren't addressed in the video that I think are absolutely necessary in order to do a nice looking installation. Especially when the installation is going to be on more than just one wall space.
I'll refer to the left wall as wall A; the right wall as wall B; and the middle wall as wall C.
1) Why were walls A and B installed prior to wall C? I cannot figure out how one can anticipate a smooth flow when the center wall is done after the side walls. Additionally, the manufacturer expressly says to work from right to left but in this video the only wall that that is being done on is wall A.
2) There are no close-ups of the inside corners but from the distance it appears that the corners are rather chopped off and non-flowing. It seems to me that, rather than lop off the tabs on the edge of each corner tile sheet, that they instead be placed on the adjacent wall thus allowing a flowing and continuous alignment of "bricks". The inside corners, to me, look like they are chopped (bricks abruptly end and suddenly change shape and color) and a rather large "caulk type line" is in each corner. What would not work about putting those tabs on the adjacent wall instead so that a flow is maintained?
• Wall B, in the video, appears to have several tiles peeled back up and replaced. The video is in fast motion so very hard to follow what the second guy is doing.
• Wall C didn't seem to have a plan to it because it was done last. I can't seem to follow the reasoning or logic for doing that wall last as it would be impossible to make the corners flow smoothly. Again, the inside corner bricks would abruptly change size and color at each corner.
• This video features the peel and stick sheets being installed over existing, grouted tile which, of course are not a level surface. Wouldn't it be wise to go over that existing tile first with some sort of a leveling grout (off top of my head but there must be some kind of preparatory "compound" to level surface) so that there would not be areas for moisture or air to accumulate? Something tells me that if one is going to be putting a vinyl product over any surface that the surface should be level. Moisture and air have a sneaky way of creeping into the tiniest of crevices.
• On subject of putting peel and stick over existing tiles, it seems counterintuitive to expect something to stick to such a very slick and smooth surface such as the original tile presented here. Is it really ok not to rough up the surface? Even when reglazing cabinets I had to rough up the existing polyurethane because the new stuff needs to GRIP INTO the old surface, not sit on top of it. I would speculate adhesive would follow the same laws of property.
• Out of absolutely nowhere the tile sheets appeared on wall C including the tile sheets behind the stove. How was the determination made on how far down behind the stove to go to? Should the tiles go fully down to the bottom by the floor in order to alleviate the possibility of air or moisture getting in or were they simply installed for aesthetic means without regard to longevity? Was the stove pulled out to install the tile sheets or were they just kind of pushed behind the top of the stove?
• I either missed or don't see the part about how to get the tile sheet up behind the fan or, as many of us are stuck with these days, the over the range microwaves that tend to break and have to be replaced all too often in which case, if not tiled behind one will have a gaping nothingness if new appliance is not same size as old.
• I missed the part about measuring the outlets and cutting to accommodate them. I've not yet started mine but I have a good idea. What about using the plastic to create a template? One can use a marker to make an X and, since it's transparent, one can easily see if they've cut enough or too little.
• Even though I watched the video seven times, I missed how the second row of tiles was chosen and cut. This question came up after I got done watching the video, and I'm glad it did, because I'm going to have to do two to three rows myself and they are not all going to be 12 in tall so I miss the part about how to choose the proper cut within a tile sheet to enable a good flow from the first row to the second row to the third row.
I appreciate this video very much, especially since you don't represent the manufacturer, but I have doubts that it would be a good idea to put these tiles over existing, grouted tiles without any type of leveling medium. I'm also very concerned about having cut those tabs off the end tiles because there's just no fluidity from one wall to the next. It looks like it just abruptly ends.
These are things that would certainly come up when one is right smack in the middle of installation so I'm glad that I watched this video so that they're coming up now before I'm standing in the kitchen in a bind trying to figure out what's my next move.
I hope to hear back some comments before I get the tile started in my kitchen.
Thank you!
I think he said you can email him at Art3d. com. So apparently he does work there.
My thought exactly! Why skip over the challenges? I’ve stopped my project to find an outlet answer. No luck.
My tile backsplash is different but I stopped by to watch because I like your presentation, thanks! 😊
Thanks for the well thought out tutorial and review! The kitchen looks far more modern with what you've done.
To make a flat wall so it sticks better, I watched another video that shows filling the grout with quick dry poly filler so it makes a flat wall. This is the video that shows how she did it. That would make the wall flat and that tile would stick well and possibly help prevent any problems with the tiles sticking anywhere. Love the look here! Great job!
Which video? Can you comment with link please? I am applying this backsplash to my tile walls
Choice of darker tiles made the kitchen look darker and smaller.
I plan on doing exactly this to my backslash. Looks awesome
Great job at showing and explaining each step!
Just what I'm looking for and well done on start to finish how you did this project and even you what you learned section. Much appreciated! Off to shop for my backsplash
Thank you for the video and suggestions, putting up back splash tomm, should be interesting, praying for the same brilliant outcome yours has, looks amazing.
Awesome video and great informative step by step. Looks Fabulous! all you need to do now is paint the cabinets for an extra added update.
I love it. Thank you for the ideas.
Very nice it added more texture to the peel and stick tiles.with the tiles underneath.you can see the tile crease.peel and stick are the best.nice work.
Work well with my new ceramic wall. Nice looking!
QVC sells these and I have been watching them. Glad to have caught your video. Looked great, not easy, but good results. Many thanks. OH, and also thanks for letting us know the costs in advance per square foot. It is up to each homeowner to figure out how much it will cost them...Not your job!
Thanks, I Just ordered several boxes of these from Amazon.
Thank you. I learned the hard way but if your tile has uneven height of individual stones that you need to line up start from the right and work your way left. This way the white underlay will always line up with next tile facing left. Your tile was equal so you could turn either way. Mine I needed to align the tiles one way only. I’m glad I learned this on a small pantry backsplash before I started the big kitchen job. Thanks again though for showing us.
My counter top will be epoxy, thank you for the demo on backsplash:-):-):-)
Nice all you have to do paint your cabinets ❤
Great job
thank you! Just what i needed!
looks real nice !
I am definitely trying this....thanks
Great video!!!
Good explanation thank you
Looks nice 👍
Is looks really great👍
You mAke it look easy! I would have it on side ways. It looks nice!
Excelent thanks.
Very informative video.. great job all around. Personally preferred the white tile prior.. It was in beautiful condition. Expensive to fix something that wasnt broken. Maybe more updates, to the same space..
I agree. Almost a little retro. But this is nice as well
Omg it’s hawk eye. Yum
THAT WAS GREAT.. THANX !
Thank you
Very nice
I'm going to try this in my kitchen will let you know how it turns out.
i installed same tiles in july,18 and I absolutely love it. Afterwards I decided cabinets had to be painted white just finished all painting don't have doors on yet. hinges on order. now I'm going to update countertop after holiday. I'm 71 female with health problem took my time(as you can tell). backsplash cost about 120.00 with about 21 feet of wall normal height. Pieces are by 12x12 but because of overlap they don't cover 12".
Looks great, will the wall or tiles be damaged when you take them off? Thanks for the helo.
That’s so excellent! I’m so happy you did this for and by yourself! I’m adding this piece of advice for anyone watching this in the future, before you install these, fill in those grout lines with some spackling paste so you have a smoother surface for these to stick to. This is an essential tip for a homeowner. It creates less bumps and ridges during and after application. If you’re just adding these for a rental unit, there’s no real reason to spackle/smooth the area. You’ll likely have to remove and replace these after 2-3 tenants. The cost to purchase and install these is nominal compared to the increase in value a rental unit with these added (aesthetics and appearance go a long way with income property).
@@fancythisgirl3 Yep. I'm dumbfounded at how much is left out of this video. That seems like absolute common sense to me and I can't figure out, to save my life, why any surface would not be leveled prior to placing something as thin as these tiles on top of it or anything on top of it, for that matter.
Since these people that made the video don't work for the manufacturer (I don't think 🤔) I didn't want to say too much about it but as the hours tick on after I've watched it I'm concerned that people will watch it and just start slapping these peel and stick tiles up and the way that it's done in the video there's no way on earth that they are going to stay put.
It look very nice, if you change de electrical outlets to white amd the caninets hardware will look even better
and also get rid of the three tone appliances and keep all one color. geeeeesh. lol
@@JacqueBlue- lol
We did this and then applied an unsanded grout on top (make sure you sponge off) which completely hid any little seams and made the backsplash look much better.
Is your backsplash holding up? I just put mine up but would love to put grout over it
Very nice. I also have that same outdated tile in my kitchen. I rather remove the tile first, but I know that will be time consuming.
With all the grout lines, the tiles are NOT a smooth surface, so those grout cavities are sure to show through the stick-ons
If you take the time to remove your old tile take the time to replace it with new tile or glass backsplash
May I suggest painting the cabinets and changing out the hardware for a super fresh, updated look?
I wouldn't paint those. Maybe sand them down and stain them a deep redish stain would be sweet. And change the knobs to a stainless type so it looks better with the fridge.
Sanding is essential if you’re going to paint the wood. Paint won’t last long without it. And if you’re already sanding, you might as well stain instead. It preserves the wood and looks way better. I’d suggest, if possible, to remove the trim on the cabinet doors and adding squared trim to make them shaker style. Another top for anyone watching this in the future, before you install these peel & stick squares is to fill in those grout lines with some spackling paste so you have a smoother surface for these to stick to. This is an essential tip for a homeowner. It creates less bumps and ridges during and after application. If you’re just adding these for a rental unit, there’s no real reason to spackle/smooth the area. You’ll likely have to remove and replace these after 3-4 tenants. The cost to purchase and install these is nominal compared to the increase in value a rental unit with these added will have (aesthetics and appearance go a long way with income property).
Great DYI video! What tiles do you recommend for stucco walls?
Thanks 😊
Very organized. Great video👌🏾. Hope the Walmart peel & stick tiles are just as good🤞🏾
They are I got some at Walmart and they worked perfectly!
So cheap looking. Looks great from far away in this video...cheap cheap cheap looking...and wait for a hot day and they peel off. .awful
I suggest turning the pieces and mixing them. If not then it results in a repeat pattern as observed on right area creating a line. Does anyone else see this? I also see the line on the left yet closer to the counter. To avoid a repeating pattern make sure the sheets are intermixed. This is similar to hanging wallpaper where depending on the pattern, each sheet should be reversed. Play with it before mounting as I could not live with this outcome
I see what you mean. The black line of tiles in the middle and the same mountain peaks on the bottom. I also wouldn't have tiled in the window.
The kitchen look so nice. I was wondering can it get damage from heat on stove. When cooking
I just bought some of this backsplash for my kitchen. I just watched the video. I will let you know how it turns out.
How did you do the corners? I can’t figure it out for the life of me 😩
What's best way to cut opening for plug sockets/light switches etc? Thanks
cool, id like to put some over wallpaper, im keeping the paper, just want a boarder. This kitchen needs more coordination, like paint the stove black or replace it since the DW is black and fridge is Stainless. then cupboards could be white or grey or put on new doors, the cost can be challenging and it takes time to do it right.
Wow
I can't get the backing to peel off the tile. I'm such a dork, I know. Any hints or suggestions ? 🤔
As you went from right to left on the first wall by going left to right on the second and third walls those must have been upside down to make them overlap. Instead of starting in the middle I would have started either at the left or right and worked all the way around in one go.
Hello - Do you know if these are easy to remove afterward? I'm living in a rental unit and wondering if this is a practical way to update while still being easy to 'undo' when the time comes for me to move.
The original was beautiful to.
Thank You so much. This my second day sitting at the counter trying to figure it our. Can you please do a video where the tile is not square< Im doing a herringbone pattern and I need help.
Hello, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via email info@art3d.com.
I used this product in my rv and a day later it all fell off the wall. I used joint compound to smooth out the textured wall and didnt make a difference. Any suggestions?
How do you start the right wall? If you work left to right you cant overlap the other wall.
I’ve been wanting to do this too, but I wasn’t sure if it would stick on ceramic surfaces. Most videos I’ve seen, people stick them directly on the wall. My kitchen already has ceramic tiles but they’re ugly.
How to you finish an end so that it isn’t obvious these are only very thin stick ons rather than a traditional grouted ceramic or glass tile backsplash (much thicker)?
I have similar tike to what you had. There is a rounded bull nose edge where the tile meets the painted wall. How would you suggest applying the tile to that area so it doesn't look Wierd or cheap?
I have tile 2 should I sand first ? And use the spray adhesive?
how many tiles did you use for this project?
Are they easy to clean from kids making a mess in the kitchen ?
Ok so i have a question. Im trying to put these art 3d on a bar table. The face of it where your feet would be near. My problem is the bar is in my garage and my garage is heated but not all the time i can get it up to 80 if i want but dont need it on all the time could i install these tiles while room is warm and let it cure for 2 days will it stick still after i turn heat off and let the temp drop back down. I use garage alot so it would be brought up to temp everyday basically
Just wondering about durability. It real brought the kitchen depth.
You didn’t put grout on the wall will it fall off when it gets hot
Did you have to turn your electric power off before installing the tiles around the electrical outlets?
Is there a video on the white decorative tiles? You make it look very easy but I know me and my home and something will through a wrench in it just to aggravate me! Better yet, why don't you just come and install it for me!!
Won't all the grout-line cavities in the existing tiles show through the stick-ons?
What do you wipe the tile off with so it's not sticky?
Can it stick to tile trims?
You need to replace the electrical plate covers with a darker color to contrast against the backsplash. It would just dress it up a bit. Also a color that matches the cabinets would've been better, like earth tones or brown/beige/bronze ones (in this instance).
The whole video was about how these tiles work and how to fit them, measure them not on his color taste. Give me a break! Great video!
@@emilypoole5686 I assume Emily that that is your opinion? I just wanted to mention this little tidbit of info.... so you know for next time..... YOU are as welcome to your opinion as I and every other person are welcome to ours. It would however be nice without the attitude.. I never said it wasn't a great video, and if you need a break... by all means... take one. The comment was made to the channel owner, not to you. It's really for them to decide if it gives them ideas for future videos. I didn't realize this channel had a comment police. Had I said something awful or nasty, I could better understand someone making a snarky comment in reply, but I wasn't being insulting, just giving some suggestions for them to better their future vid's. If they want to apply them fine, if not that's fine too. He's presenting a video on DIY decorating.... it's always a good idea for things to blend and match when doing so, it makes the video's more appealing to more people. I never once said he or they did a poor job, I just made some helpful suggestions. I'm sorry if you don't agree, but... i don't recall asking you. Have a lovely day! :-)
Let paint the cuboards next!
How did they hold up??
Okay, 3 hrs later…how’s it holding up? We are thinking of using these.
I really wanted to see one with an arabesque pattern which is a lot harder to fit together than this one.
Now paint your cabinets a white color and you’ll be good to go. Put them up to the ceiling too.
The white tiles looked better but very helpful video
Question are the tiles all vinyl or are they a glass front? Thanks 👍🏻
all vinyl
What if you backsplash it close to the built in stove burner? Will it melt???
It should keep at least 12" far away from the top of stove to avoid over-heated
He looks like a company owner posing as a regular person.
It is amazing how fast those type of tiles look dated already in 2021.
Yep. I'd go with the regular white subway tiles!!
Are you able to use the peel and stick tiles for the bathroom shower where they have the tile
No the moisture will just make it peel off
They didn’t show how they did the window ledge.
Can I use these on mobile home walls?? I have the panels that are floral and outdated and don't really want to paint.
Yes you can...i however would recommend using real tile though. You can get a subway tile for close to the same price I bet, and doesnt look as "chintzy/cheap as these do...if hesbcutting those with a knife it's not even tile may as just go to a wallpaper store
I did it:-!:-):-):-):-):-):-):-):'( It looks good
How well have they adhered to the tiles? I just have painted walls, but they aren’t smooth. I’m concerned they won’t stick with my textured walls. Any ideas ? Looks great !
Hello L Watson,
You should sand down the texture, it's supposed to install on flat surface
Please sand off the texture, and primer it, then you can apply our tile
Light switches need more close ups
How many boxes did you use, I wonder.
Determine your square footage you need. They come in a box of X amount of square footage. Usually 10 or so. If you have 30 square feet get 4 boxes just in case you will need more.
@@adamhg985
Yes thank you!
That came out great and looks awesome. Love it in my kitchen but someone :sigh: slapped heavy ceiling texture all over it, and the entire bathroom. So anytime you get close you get your arms/hands scrapped up.
Anyways, thanks for sharing.
Hello could I put this over an existing tile backsplash?
Hello, It is okay if the surface is smooth without texture.
Does these work for textured walls
Hello, unfortunately the adhesive on the back of the product need a flat and clean wall to keep the tile on the wall. We recommend you to sand off the texture and clean the wall if you would like to apply our product.
How washable are those peel and stick tiles? Do they hold up well to grease? Thanks
Goldie Lara, Great question, Thank you for posting it. I would've been too overjoyed with updating my outdated backsplash that I wouldn't thought about cleaning durability until after I attempted cleaning...and....disaster. 😃
In my opinion, the existing ceramic tiles looked better.
How much did the project cost to do in total?
I believe he told in the beginning how much per square foot the costs was, so get to measuring!
Just wondering if this can be done on the tiled walls of a shower? Would water leak in? Any thoughts from you guys? The guy in the video hasn't responded to anyone's comments so maybe he's no longer interested or whatever. But good video anyways!
Hello Kat Willams,
It's not recommended to apply in the shower area, as the constant hot water does impact on the adhesive back of tile
I don't see the link you spoke about for the tiles.
I believe he said art3d.com
Here the link to order www.art3d.com/designs/a17002-bathroom-backsplash-wall-tile-11-pieces-10-3-sf/
Any Hardware, Walmart, heck, QVC sells them!
Are those a vinyl product? If so why are they better than the ceramic? I would think that I would prefer a glass or ceramic tile to a vinyl.
Yes, this is vinyl product, we also carry the peel and stick glass tile, please find the link to order: www.art3d.com/designs/a16321-32-piece-peel-and-stick-backsplash-glass-tile-for-kitchen-or-bathroom-3-x-6-white-backsplash-tiles/
cant subscribe because didnt answer the question of cost (must be a lot) or how many tiles you used;(
It is up to you to measure your own backsplash and do your own math, Susie! And if you do not know how go back and get a GED. Not his job to figure out your costs! Pay a handyman if you want someone to figure it out for you. These videos are not here for you to take advantage of, but for information only. And a darn good video and very helpful. I subscribed but sure he does not need you on his list!
It’s really not that difficult to figure out. Maybe you have someone who can help you. No need to jump all over her. I get it, it’s fun to put people down, it feels good right? Some just aren’t at all good with math. Seriously get over yourself already. I am sure she has other areas that she does great in.
My self I got mine from Wal-Mart.com they were 12x12 tiles and came 10 in a pack mine measures 27ft so I bought 3 packs at $39.99 a pack $118 not to bad.
@@vickiharris3427 I just bought a 10 pack from Amazon and it was around $25.
way too expensive
You used the word elegant...its plastic...elegant is not the word that comes to my mind....cheap is more like it.
Wish I knew this before I bought them. The sides being "staggered" instead of just a straight line is RIDICULOUS!! The 1' x 1' are then NOT 1' x 1' when you cut them. I have a 2' wall......so need 2 pieces across, right? WRONG, because now I have to cut another small strip just to cover the excess that should already have been covered if the pieces weren't staggered. Should be all straight edges....... peel and stick and DONE!! This should NOT be a project! TERRIBLE!!!
