When you want white, clean, classic, and cheap, there's no better option. And I hardly see how subway tile could date a home, seeing that it's been around since the early 1900's. There's nothing "trendy" about it. It's classic. On the other hand, all of this tumbled marble and granite countertops that are being used now will most certainly date homes in the coming decades.

That must be true - blogging and subway tile go hand-in-hand. I'm sure there are others you have missed as well. I love how it looks but I often wonder whether interior designers and other people,including me, will look back one day and say how subway tile really dates a house, like avocado and harvest gold, or like pickled wood and flowery chintz. But what can you do? Trends are trends. Hopefully it's plain looking enough that it won't scream "turn of the century" in another twenty years! GUILTY!!!
