Just about to go order the tiles for my BS- I think I've decided on tumbled Botticino- since we're DIY, and total tile novices, DH wants to keep it simple, and do one row of 6X6" tiles (If I can find them, found 2X4's, but he'd prefer the larger ones)with a 12" long pencil liner on top. Fine- but I just realized I have no clue how to line these up.

It is a 4X2 vanity up against one wall. BS will run in an L-shape along back and side. I was planning on running pencil liner up side and over top, and down side again. So, this presents another problem- he will have to cut tiles (cuz pencil liner takes up space) or we line up tiles with countertop and have pencil liner stick over (don't like that option). Cutting the tiles is no problem, we have a wet-saw- but it's tumbled, so what do you do about the ton-tumbled edge- try and nick/ sand it down a little? Where would you put the cut edge- into the corner (so that two cut edges meet there)?

And, I also have another question- I know you're supposed to caulk, not grout where two surfaces meet- so we'll caulk where tile meets granite (right), but what about that corner- do we caulk there too?

6X6's are limestone, DH thinks it looks OK- I think they're too yellow, and so am on the hunt for 6X6 Botticino- we also like how that echoes the flooring.
