Can you? Yes. Do I think it will look good? No. Why do you need a pencil? A simple Schulter is a better edge for glass. And very gently reconsider that tile especially if you have any outlets or visible cuts, it will crack at outlets and all cuts cause the back paint to chip off and look terrible.

It will look terrible. And what is there is WAY more interesting and current than the dated gray glass.

@Zumi are you saying the subway tile we’ve chosen is dated ?

That glass tile will probably look green once installed. Buyer beware.

@HALLETT & Co. schulter ? is it similar to a pencil border ? who carries it? no one else had suggested that for us . we so like the look of the glass tile, but we do have outlets

Do you like the look of cracked glass tile? It will crack at every 90° inside cut like at an outlet. Because that’s what glass does. This was also dated ten years ago fwiw. Where are you buying tile that doesn’t have Schulter? Even floor and decor and the big box stores sell it.

Can we save you further - post the actual kitchen you plan to use this tile in showing cabinets, counter and floor.

I believe HALLET meant to type Schluter. Not Schulter. Google “schluter edge.”

Glass tile needs Schluter for the edge to keep it a nice clean look Pencil tile traditional glass tile modern they do not mix.

What is the pencil for? Edges at the end of backspalsh? A good installer will put the cut tile part edge from tiles inside and finish with the factory edge. Another option, change selection to another line that has matching pencil. There are plenty.

Because he doesn't realize that what he had was WAY better than what he wanted. So now he is reevaluating.
