A custom tile – easier (and more fun) than you think

You know those classic blue-and-white Dutch tiles with wise old sayings like “Keep calm and be normal.”Cute, sure — but we’re living in 2025. Time for something personal.A tile with your own text, quote, joke, or inside saying makes any wall come alive — and guarantees a smile from whoever reads it.

At Babett.Studio, you can easily design and order your own custom tile.Whether you want a cheeky quote for the bathroom (“You’re doing great — keep sitting!”) or a heartfelt gift for a wedding (“Together, one tile closer to forever”), we’ve got you covered.

How it works – making your own personalized tile

Creating a tile with your own text is surprisingly simple:

1. Pick your size: the standard tile is 15 x 15 cm – perfect for one quote or saying.

2. Choose your style: classic Delft blue, minimal black & white, modern color pop, or vintage retro.

3. Add your text: type your message, joke, name, date, or custom saying.

4. Choose a font: select one of our examples or send us your own font file or screenshot.

5. Review & order: we print your design permanently on high-quality ceramic. No sticker, no fading — ever.

Want something bigger? You can also create a tile tableau — multiple tiles forming one big piece of art.
