bumpita, bumpita, bumpita. I don't know, if I were going to do tile countertop I'd want the largest possible tiles with the fewest grout lines, myself.

One thing to think about with subway tile, or ANY wall tile, for that matter-- the glaze is pretty soft, and as such would end up gettign scratched up if used as a countertop surface.

Wouldn't do it...

You can find basic granite (black) or marble (white) vanity tops in standard sizes at most of the major home improvement stores. Simple, inexpensive and practical.

Thanks for all of your advice.
Regarding the standard size tops at HD & Lowe's...does the bath cabinet have to be the exact same size as the standard top dimension? Some of mine are 2 inches off of standard.

thanks!

So long as the top is the same size or a little bigger. You can always overhang the ends a little, so long as space in the bathroom allows for it. You don't want to overhand too much though-- no more than an inch on either side-- otherwise it then looks obviously mismatched with the vanity.

I agree with the others, I wouldn't do it. You can also do a plain white corian. or even a white cultured marble.
