But let\u2019s be real: While our new place is clean and well-kept, it\u2019s still the definition of builder grade. We\u2019re talking blank white walls, gray tile floors in the bathroom and kitchen, and a serious lack of personality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-right is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;While our new place is clean and well-kept, it\u2019s still the definition of builder grade&#8230; a serious lack of personality.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>After we moved in and I started planning ways to make our new place feel like <em>ours, <\/em>I couldn\u2019t help but notice my FYP flooded with renters transforming their spaces with peel-and-stick wallpaper and floor decals. The trend is budget-friendly and surprisingly easy to execute, and it captured my attention as a reasonable option. That said, I was a little wary \u2014 most peel-and-stick options that influencers love (or the ones that pop up first on Amazon) are notorious for containing VOCs and other not-so-great materials, which doesn\u2019t feel right when we\u2019re about to have a baby crawling around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since our team has long admired <a href=\"https:\/\/chasingpaper.sjv.io\/POkL6Y\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Chasing Paper<\/a> and we\u2019ve even partnered with them in the past to review their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/features\/reviews-chasing-paper\/\">peel-and-stick wallpaper<\/a>, I reached out to see what kinds of nontoxic tile decals they might have for a kitchen backsplash and bathroom floor. The timing couldn\u2019t have been better. Not only did we get to try out their Porto Tile Decals and Marble Flooring, but we also had the chance to chat with the founder and learn exactly why nontoxic is the way to go, especially when we\u2019re creating a space that\u2019s safe, fresh, and truly our own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex

id=\"h-what-are-vocs-and-why-do-so-many-peel-and-stick-tiles-have-them\">What are VOCs, and why do so many peel-and-stick tiles have them?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are chemicals that easily become vapors at room temperature, and they\u2019re in everything from paints and adhesives to peel-and-stick tiles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-right is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are chemicals that easily become vapors at room temperature, and they\u2019re in everything from paints and adhesives to peel-and-stick tiles.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMany peel-and-stick options are designed to be cheap, quick fixes, inevitably leading to consumers purchasing products that emit toxins and VOCs into the air in their homes,\u201d explains Elizabeth Rees, founder of Chasing Paper. Founded in 2012 by a third-generation grand-format printing family, Chasing Paper prints made-to-order wallpaper free of vinyl, VOCs, PVC, and phthalates, using water-based GREENGUARD Gold Certified ink. The brand also collaborates with designers like <a href=\"https:\/\/chasingpaper.sjv.io\/Z64ky1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Jenni Yolo<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/ispydiy.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">I Spy DIY<\/a> to release fun prints regularly.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAt Chasing Paper, we believe that great design belongs to homeowners and renters alike, which is why we started with peel-and-stick products from the beginning,\u201d says Rees. \u201cOur philosophy is that just because a home product is designed to be removable or temporary, it should still be crafted with care and quality in mind.\u201d Makes sense to me!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In contrast to many low-cost peel-and-stick options loaded with VOCs, Chasing Paper\u2019s decals are a safer choice for indoor air quality. Their high-quality materials and thoughtful design offer renters and homeowners an easy, beautiful way to upgrade their spaces without compromising health or sustainability while saving money. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;In contrast to many low-cost peel-and-stick options loaded with VOCs, Chasing Paper\u2019s decals are a safer choice for indoor air quality.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor those looking to instantly upgrade kitchen backsplashes or cover old flooring, our peel-and-stick decals are ideal since they are made from high-quality, self-adhesive vinyl and finished with a laminate overlay for durability over time,&#8221; says Rees. &#8220;The tiles are also printed with GREENGUARD Gold Certified ink, which makes them fade and stain resistant.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So while yes, peel-and-stick may be most appealing to renters, it\u2019s also a great way to spruce up a home you own if you\u2019re not ready to invest in big renovations yet!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-trying-out-chasing-paper-tile-decals-and-floor-decals\">Trying out Chasing Paper tile decals and floor decals<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I started by browsing the different tile decal options on Chasing Paper\u2019s site, which is a trove of styles, from bold black-and-white checkered patterns to more neutral marble and even Marrakesh-inspired designs. The brand offers dozens of colorways and motifs, so it was easy to get lost in the possibilities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-right is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;The brand offers dozens of colorways and motifs, so it was easy to get lost in the possibilities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, I settled on the <a href=\"https:\/\/chasingpaper.sjv.io\/nXbO27\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">Porto Tile Decals<\/a> for my kitchen backsplash. They have a classic blue-and-white design that feels timeless and fresh, with a slight Mediterranean vibe that instantly brightens the space. For the bathroom floor, I chose the <a href=\"https:\/\/chasingpaper.sjv.io\/Oe5NmN\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">marble tile decals<\/a>, a crisp white with subtle grey veining that gives an elegant, airy feel, like a mini spa retreat in our rental.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While I didn\u2019t personally order sample swatches (I was so sure of my picks and was working directly with the brand), I\u2019d recommend ordering them if you\u2019re on the fence. The samples let you see the color and quality up close, which can be a game-changer for matching with your cabinets or flooring. The brand\u2019s website has an easy-to-use footage calculator and clear instructions for measuring and ordering, making the whole process seamless and stress-free. And since Chasing Paper\u2019s tiles are made in the USA, they shipped quickly, so I had my box of tiles in hand and was ready to start!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" data-id=\"62033\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"Two stacks of white ceramic tiles with blue floral and corner designs are placed on a white marble surface.\" class=\"wp-image-62033\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-scaled.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-488x650.jpeg 488w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-900x1200.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-330x440.jpeg 330w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-423x564.jpeg 423w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-576x768.jpeg 576w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-882x1176.jpeg 882w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review2-281x375.jpeg 281w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" data-id=\"62043\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"A black and white checkered floor with a marble pattern on the white tiles and a matte finish on the black tiles.\" class=\"wp-image-62043\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-scaled.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-488x650.jpeg 488w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-900x1200.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-330x440.jpeg 330w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-423x564.jpeg 423w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-576x768.jpeg 576w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-882x1176.jpeg 882w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review12-281x375.jpeg 281w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\"><em>(L)The Porto Tile Decals were my pick for a timeless kitchen vibe; (R) I went with the marble tile decals for the bathroom floor. <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hanging-the-porto-tile-decals\">Hanging the Porto Tile Decals<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Hanging the kitchen tile decals was a fun but meticulous project!

She\u2019s much better at measuring and cutting than I am \u2014 I tend to be more of an 80% effort gal when it comes to home projects \u2014 so having her there to double-check everything made all the difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" data-id=\"62034\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"A hand holds a large ceramic tile composed of nine smaller white tiles with blue floral patterns, arranged in a 3x3 grid.\" class=\"wp-image-62034\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-scaled.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-488x650.jpeg 488w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-900x1200.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-330x440.jpeg 330w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-423x564.jpeg 423w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-576x768.jpeg 576w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-882x1176.jpeg 882w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review3-281x375.jpeg 281w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" data-id=\"62036\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"A person measures and aligns decorative tile stickers on a kitchen wall beneath a cabinet using a yellow level tool.\" class=\"wp-image-62036\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-scaled.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-488x650.jpeg 488w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-900x1200.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-330x440.jpeg 330w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-423x564.jpeg 423w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-576x768.jpeg 576w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-882x1176.jpeg 882w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review5-281x375.jpeg 281w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\"><em>While time-intensive, the hanging process for the peel-and-stick tile was pretty straightforward and satisfying. <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We tackled a 6.5 ft by 3 ft area on the wall, and the whole process took about two hours. The key was to work in small sections, using a level and a ruler to keep everything aligned. We also found it helpful to use a smoothing tool to really press down each tile and get rid of air bubbles. While the application was pretty straightforward, it was a labor of love, and I\u2019m glad I had an extra pair of hands to make sure it turned out just right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing I quickly learned: It\u2019s so important to order a bit more tile than you think you\u2019ll need. We cut a couple of tiles incorrectly, and others needed to be peeled off and repositioned for a better fit. Thankfully, we\u2019d ordered extra (which Chasing Paper recommends). Also, when we removed one of the tiles, it did take some of the paint and drywall with it \u2014 a likely issue with the older materials and layers of paint in the rental itself, rather than the decals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" data-id=\"62038\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"Partially installed patterned tile backsplash in a kitchen, with tiles, tools, and papers on the stove and nearby surfaces.\" class=\"wp-image-62038\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-scaled.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-488x650.jpeg 488w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-900x1200.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-330x440.jpeg 330w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-423x564.jpeg 423w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-576x768.jpeg 576w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-882x1176.jpeg 882w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review7-281x375.jpeg 281w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" data-id=\"62037\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"A decorative tile sticker is partially peeled back from a tiled wall, revealing a plain, damaged white surface beneath patterned tiles.\" class=\"wp-image-62037\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-scaled.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-300x400.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-488x650.jpeg 488w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-150x200.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-900x1200.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-330x440.jpeg 330w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-423x564.jpeg 423w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-576x768.jpeg 576w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-882x1176.jpeg 882w, https:\/\/www.thegoodtrade.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/chasing-paper-review6-281x375.jpeg 281w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\"><em>My hot tip is to follow the brand&#8217;s rec to purchase a little more product than you strictly need for any accidents or replacements!<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe main benefit of peel-and-stick tiles is that they can be easily removed when it\u2019s time to move out of an apartment or you\u2019re just in the mood for another refresh,\u201d Rees says. Chasing Paper\u2019s decals are designed with a low-tack adhesive that won\u2019t leave residue or damage most surfaces, keeping things looking fresh for the next chapter. When we eventually move out and remove them all, I will take Rees\u2019 advice to use a hairdryer first to warm up the tiles and soften the adhesive \u2014 it\u2019s a great tip for ensuring everything comes off gently and smoothly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-laying-the-marble-tile-decals\">Laying the Marble Tile Decals<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Next up was laying the tiles for the bathroom floor.

That said, while I adored the marble pattern and how fresh it made the bathroom feel, the reality didn\u2019t quite match the vision. My renter\u2019s floors have thick, uneven grout lines; since these tiles are solid black, those grout lines showed right through. I ended up abandoning the project because it wasn\u2019t coming together as I\u2019d hoped. It was disappointing, but a huge learning moment. If I were to do it again, I\u2019d go for a pattern like the penny tiles or hexagons \u2014 those designs would camouflage imperfections and grout lines beautifully, plus they have so much charm and personality.

For about $200, I was able to add so much personality to our new rental and give the kitchen a fresh, charming touch that makes it feel like home. The Porto Tile Decals have been surprisingly durable and functional. They\u2019re thick enough to work almost like a real backsplash, making it easy to wipe away splashes from the stove. We\u2019ve even hung shelves over the decals, and nearly two months later, they still look as good as the day we put them up. Despite a few hiccups along the way (looking at you, uneven grout floors!), I\u2019d do this project again in a heartbeat.
