There are two primary methods of installing window trim. the first is called a wrap-around style, which consists of placing an identical piece of trim on all four sides of the window frame. this style is most often used in small rooms. it doesn't leave bulky pieces of trim protruding into the room.. Installing a tile backsplash is not difficult, and it involves following just a few steps from prepping the wall to applying the thin set adhesive, cutting and setting the tiles, and then grouting and sealing. the more challenging part is tiling around a window with mesh tile so that the grid stays perfectly aligned..
