Beautiful Tiles, Worth the Wait
The Mexican decorative tiles look amazing as our kitchen backsplash! Each one is unique and full of vibrant color, exactly the rustic charm we wanted. It did take a while for them to arrive from Mexico, but the quality and craftsmanship made it worth the wait. Very happy with the final result

A burst of vivid colors
What an amazing store! I could not decide on the right design as there are so many awesome patterns to choose from. We went for this red and blue kind of medieval motif as my parents-in-low love antique style.
