Installing mesh mounted glass tiles?

I am installing some mesh mounted 12x12 glass tiles sheets on one wall of my kitchen (behind the stove). I was reading online how to do it and I have a question. Some sites say to put the bottom tiles flush with the counter top and some sites say to use 1/8 spacers between the countertop and the bottom of the tiles and fill in with grout colored cauk. Which should I do? Thanks

Definitely use the spacers! It will give it a much more professional look. You'll be glad you did

Definitely use the spacers and the grout caulk. By the way there is a product available that is not grout colored caulk but is actually grout caulk....it's sold at large tile stores, and is made for those areas that you're describing. The reason for using the grout caulk in that space is that there is always a certain amount of movement where the cabinet meets the wall. If there is no expansion joint which cushions that movement, something will break, and in your case it will probably be the glass tile.

I ve done hundreds and there is no right or wrong. I like to leave the tile , and it don t matter what type of tile,right down to the counter top. Then the grout is very thin and shows less when it does crack. And it will crack from temp and humidity changes effecting walls, counter tp etc. Then you caulk with a thin bead of caulk. Caulk and grout , because they are 2 different substances never perfectly match. Only white hides the best on white grout.
