I'm jumping on the band wagon

I know that ombre products have been all the rage for awhile now but I'm just now getting on board.  ("Ombre" - when something fades from dark to light, or one color to another)

But I've ditched that idea in search of a better opportunity for ombre.  And I've found it.

Ben came across a company called Hakatai.  They are a small tile company out of Ashland, Oregon, that will do custom ombre glass tile design.  Once we started playing around on the website's custom design tool, we were hooked.  Here are some ombre tile installations that we like:








Not sure exactly where this will end up but we're currently working with Hakatai to create something fun, something unique... and something OMBRE!  Just saying the word "ombre" makes me feel like drinking a margarita.
