I would stop the tile at the corner. Just make sure you use washable paint so if there is splatter it can be easily cleaned.

I had the same question awhile back and the consensus is to stop the tile at the corner as teacher noted. Corners are not good for lots of things but they can be good for transitions.

I do like that blue tile, though. Really pretty color.

Another vote to stop at the corner. Happy remodeling!

Yep, I definitely agree, stop tile at the corner.

Interesting! I'll cast the dissenting vote ... I'd go around the corner like the picture shows, no question. The only reason I wouldn't is if my tile did not come with trim. To me, the sides are considered backsplash area, especially if they can be "splashed." My tile and paint are very close in color, though, and I'm not sure I'd like it as much of there were a big contrast. I'd still tile it there, just wouldn't like it as much. :-)

Can you post a pic of the other issue with the doorway?

I'm with Jellytoast on this one too.

I think the backsplash should wrap the corner to protect the wall. I don't see a reason to stop it in the corner, before the counter & cabinet end. But like most things, it's a matter of personal opinion.

PS - i love the vintage blue tile!

I vote don't wrap the tile.
