I had my kitchen painted three colors (horizontally) and thought that handmade tiles would look nice separating the colors, so I went to North Prairie Tileworks in late January, picked up some tiles to take home for review, and talked with Roger, the owner, about possibilities. Discussions went on for several months about what could be done, what colors would work together, what colors were not available for certain kinds of tiles, what designs to use, etc. I had measured all the walls carefully, and they did do an excellent job making specific sizes and shapes, and making some with bullnose,  and special ones for the corners, etc. to  fit in specific areas.  
After quite a few trips down there, and lots of discussion, we finally received our order on June 4th. We needed more of a couple of pieces, which were to be made by the next week. When I went to pick them up they were not available. Roger did mail them out that week. The bigger tiles were difficult to shape so they would be flush with the wall, but I understood that they had made double the number I needed and chosen the best for us. Handmade tiles are quite expensive but they do look nice. Roger is a very nice man, but I got the sense after a while that my order was very low priority on his list. It took way too long to make these small number of tiles, with problems like the kiln breaking down not helping things any.

The layout pattern for my project was ultimately created by a friend of mine who is an architect. He used a CAD program to create the pattern. I then brought it into the shop and worked with one of the artists there, Charlie. He was fabulous and very professional. Every tile turned out perfect (not too perfect though as you want subtle imperfections with ceramic tile) and we didn't have to cut even one tile during the application of the tiles to the surround. Charlie gave me an estimate (totally shooting from the hip) of $500-$800. That was a very fair estimate. I was extremely satisfied and you can see from the photos just how great it turned out.
