Subway tile accents in the right color

15 years ago

I'm trying to take back the main bathroom in my 1892 shingle-style Victorian. The white subway tile is easy to find. Does anyone have a suggestion on where to find 1x6 (pencil) tile in dark, hunter green? I'll probably also need a 4x4 or possibly 6x6 tile in hunter green for an accent design. Thanks for your help.

AO makes subway and also makes different colors- their green is called dill pickle. not sure if that's the shade you are looking for.

They are easy to find and order at tile stores.

AO dill pickle not the right color, also tried Daltile oak moss which is not right either. Really wanted dark green liner but it looks like I'm 5 or so years too late. I'll probably have to give up and do an all-white subway look. I'm trying to adjust.

Fireclay tile has 112 colors and an endless number of trim pieces. It isn't cheap, but a small amount goes a long way.

Enjoy!
