Hey folks! I'm in the middle of a DIY bathroom renovation and my wife wants to use subway tiles on the walls. Here's the thing: instead of standard 90-degree corners, we have this smaller wall that creates two 135-degree angles. I've got a picture I can share later, but I'm curious if there are any special techniques for tiling these types of angles. Any advice?

A quick tip: when you reach the corners, you can overlap the tiles slightly if that's easier, or butt them up against each other for a tighter finish. It really depends on the look you're going for, so try both if you're unsure!

When you're working with those corners, cut your tiles to fit and then use the cutoff piece as your next tile after the corner. This technique helps maintain a clean look as you go around the angles.
