On a Budget? Meet Brio Custom Blends!!!
Brio® Custom Blends Fit Every Budget!
Customizing your kitchen or bathroom gets extremely pricey! Especially if you’re working within a specific color scheme.
Meet our Brio® Custom Blend Program! With literally millions of possible glass mosaic color combinations right at your fingertips, you can easily create the right tile blend for your project…Plus, it’s totally budget-friendly and fun to do!!!
How-to Create Your Custom Blend Recipe:
Step 1) Access the blender at: http://www.modwallsblender.com/
Step 2) Select the colors that you’d like to blend by clicking on the Brio® ¾” glass tile images.
The colors will automatically move into the blender after 2 colors have been selected. Remove any color by dragging it away from the blending area.
If you wish to start over, just click RESET.
Step 3) Feel free to adjust the color percentage by moving the arrows up and down on each color. (Note: your design must add up to 100%)
Step 4) Think you reached your desired colored combination? Click on REMIX to randomly remix the colors. (Note that all of our custom blends are random, not patterned)
Step 5) Optional, but highly recommended: Select grout colors to see how this changes the effect of your blend. The grout colors shown are part of modwalls® StarGlass/ Dimension Urethane Grout collection. Grout is sold separately, but we believe this is the best choice available for any glass tile installation.
Step 6) Order Your Custom Blend Sample here. Be sure to enter your blend recipe on the Customer Comments area – including color names and percentages. Note: you will be prompted to enter your recipe on page 2 of checkout.
___________________________
Why should I order a sample?
We strongly encourage creative customers like yourself to order samples of your custom blend – which eliminates any online purchasing woes. Each computer monitor may slightly distort the true colors and it’s always good to have a sample in-hand. Btw, samples are about 5″ x 5″ and are not refundable.
Once you have received your sample and are ready to order your Brio® custom blend, simply call us toll-free @ 877-439-9734. We have real people ready to take your order Monday-Friday from 9am – 5pm Pacific Time. Please note that there is a 20 sq.ft. minimum order per custom blend.
How is my custom blend assembled?
Since 2005, we proudly and locally outsource our modwalls® custom blend production to the wonderful people at HOPE Services. HOPE Services is a non-profit organization which employs developmentally and physically disabled adults to do a variety of production work. Their mission is to assist individuals with disabilities to live and participate in their communities – and we LOVE this.
HOPE’s clients are responsible for making each sheet of your custom blend – a true work of art – made with pride and love! There are currently over 30 HOPE clients dedicated to the modwalls® custom blend production.
Here are some photos of HOPE’s client’s in action:
HOPE Services receives our customer’s custom blend recipes on a weekly basis. Each individual Brio® Mosaic Color comes with a paper facing that HOPE soaks off prior to mounting and assembling each blend. Tiles are then set individually onto plastic grids in a random pattern according to your recipe. Each completed grid (or 1.15 sq.ft. sheet) is then reviewed for quality control. Once approved, a plastic film is placed over the top or “face” of the tiles to hold it in place for installation.
This entire process generally takes about 1 week to complete. Once your blend is complete, we’ll ship it via UPS and email you the tracking number.
Real Customer Satisfaction!
Here’s a recent client review we received about their custom blend experience:

A bold move with NEUTRALS!!! (Color’s shy cousin)
Neutrals are colors too!!!
________________________________________________________
Are you trying to find the right neutral for your tile project? Bright colors aren’t for everyone, but we believe good design is.
Sometimes a quick comparison is all you need to pick the right neutral hue for the job. We have carefully curated these Lush® glass subway tile neutrals just for YOU…
And, we especially love the dimensional effect that happens in different lighting conditions.
Here’s a larger view of our latest neutral addition: Cameo!!! In other words, Cameo is making its cameo…. Had to go there. 
Neutrals can be just as high-impact as vivid colors!!! You don’t have to use the latest trend color to create that pop in your space.

Inspired by…Poppy~!
The Lush color formerly known as Quince is now……….POPPY!!!
“Oh good! Yes, Poppy is a much better name. Much more fun & it just sounds more ORANGE!”
[...said a wonderful customer just a few minutes ago! Hence, this explanation of the name change...]
“Orange is the happiest of colors” - Frank Sinatra
Color names are a funny thing; it can make or break a persons opinion of said color or product. If you have ever studied color theory, you know what I’m talking about, and our products are no exception. This is why we decided to re-name our color Quince to the fun-loving new Poppy color.
“The color orange creates a lot of controversy; it evokes strong emotion and is a color that people seem to either love or hate. Color experts agree that orange radiates warmth and energy.” – The Examiner
More Fun Facts About The Color ORANGE:
- Physically, the color orange stimulates activity, appetite and our ability to socialize.
- Orange is a color that really stands out, even at a distance, and invites attention.
- In the practice of Feng Shui, colors hold great significance, and orange represents fire.
- Orange helps us focus our powers of concentration, and it’s also the color that’s credited with assisting us in organizing our thoughts and our things.
- During the Elizabethan Era in English history, only nobility were allowed to wear orange clothing.
- An orange vehicle says you are fun loving and trendy.
What do you think of our the color orange? And our new Poppy name? We would love to hear your feedback!

modwalls® Lush® Weave Patterns, “Ready for my close-up!!!!!”
(**Okay, so we cannot exactly interview our lastest and greatest Lush® patterns per se, but if we did, they would be more than thrilled to be in the center of the spotlight**)
Modwalls WEAVE patterns were created by modwalls one and only in-house Interior Designer, Katelyn Bowman. When developing this simple, but intriguing pattern for modwalls, Katelyn wanted to create a fresh twist on a tried and true version of an herringbone and chevron pattern using our modern 8mm thick Lush® 1×4 glass tile in our top selling Cloud, Vapor, and Fog Bank colors.
“Geometric patterns are an ever-constant design element – past and present – and there’s beauty in the repetition. I think this new pattern I designed for modwalls will be a seemless addition to an already fantastic line of products. Although the pattern is relatively simple, you can install this in many different ways which I’m sure will please many different design aesthetics.”
Installing your backsplash tile in this pattern would typically be more labor-intensive and therefore more expensive since your installer would have placed each tile individually (not fun!).
Modwalls addresses this issue by sheeting the pattern in a way that makes installation MUCH easier. The pattern is pre-set and mesh-mounted with 1/16″ grout joints with interlocking sides. This tile is ideal for any wall applications including kitchen backsplash tile, bathroom tile, fireplace tile and pool tile. The tile is sold in sheets that measure 0.93 square feet each (just less than one square foot) for $19.95. It can be laid either vertically, horizontally, 45 degree angle, etc.
Here are some more eye-catching images of the Lush® 1×4 Weave! Enjoy!!!

Inspired By… Surf!!! (And just in time for Summer!)
Modwalls Lush® Surf is available in 5 different sizes.
SURF is up!!!!!
Modwalls Lush® glass subway tile in Surf is most accurately described as a soft, watery aqua green color. This tranquil color can pair well with a ton of different color combinations and design styles (see install images below). Available in 5 different sizes: 1″x2 Surf, 1″x4″ Surf, 3×6″ Surf, 6″x 6″ Surf, and 4″x12 Surf.
This glass subway tile is ideal for any wall application including kitchen backsplash tile, bathroom tile, fireplace tile and pool tile. Basically it’s easy to install in all areas where tile can be present.
Here is what a couple happy modwalls customers had to say about the our Lush Surf:
Loved the color!
Christina Meares (Yonkers, NY) 9/17/2010
I was looking for subway tile for months, and after ordering samples and comparing colors, I chose the 1×2 “Surf” and it looks great!
happy customer 11/11/2008
I am extremely pleased with the two colors I purchased, surf and stem. The application and resulting look are even better than I imagined. I used the surf as a border against stark white in a seascape guest bathroom, the stem as backsplash over sink and again stove in kitchen. The only problem I see is lack of other areas to use the tiles on. Also I would like to say that the customer service I received from Modwalls was above and beyond the call. I was extremely pleased – keep up the great work. Delyn, TX
We always love some good installation pics!!

Inspired By… Fog Bank
It’s easy to see why our Lush® 4″x 12″ Fog Bank is one of our best sellers!
Here’s what one of our customers Brienne of Tucson, Arizona had to say about it (thanks Brienne!). I think she summed it up perfectly!
“We had the 4×12 Lush Fog Bank tile installed for our pool at the water line. It is a beautiful and clean modern look. We searched countless sites looking for truly modern pool tile and Modwalls was the only site that had what we were looking for. We debated on color after ordering samples of 5 different tiles. We thought fog bank would end up too grey and a little boring, but it is the perfect color in our space. Sometimes it looks blue, sometimes it looks grey, but it always looks stunning, especially next to the crisp white grout we chose. The tile isn’t cheap, but it is worth every penny for the great quality and the clean modern look it provides!”
