Backsplashes: interesting/minimalist ideas, anyone?
Comments (10)Caulk the vanity to the wall (IMHO). Water will drip behind, otherwise... even if just from cleaning. I have glass tile halfway up the wall behind my new vanity, but I still caulked the edge of the vanity and sinks to the tile. And darn glad I did, since I totally splashed water all over it washing my face yesterday. I would have been freaking about water running behind and possibly swelling the plywood of the vanity bottom and sides. I admit I was nervous to caulk. I loved how it all looked just sitting together, with the slight shadow line between the porcelain, wood, and glass elements. But I taped REALLY carefully, right on the edge of everything, so the caulk beads are very small. They don't detract too much at all... and after that big splash yesterday and I can definitively say we made the right decision to caulk....See MoreDoes anyone have calacatta gold tiles for backsplash?
Comments (11)I just realized I did not answer your question. No, the two are different. I am not good at posting pics so here is a link to kitchens with Carrera and also with Calacatta Gold. There is also a Calacatta Green which is what I was really hoping to find a small slab of. Here is a link to images of Carrera marble: http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&source=hp&q=carrera%20marble%20kitchen&aql=&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi Here is a link to Calacutta: http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&um=1&sa=1&q=calacutta+gold+kitchen&aq=f&oq=&aqi=&start=0 Here is a link that might be useful: Carrera marble kitchen images...See MoreDid anyone NOT do a special backsplash design over the range?
Comments (71)We are at the beginning of a remodel of a 1950 home so this site has quickly become like the big wing of a mother duck to me that I run to over and over when all these decisions make me dizzy. After looking at the brazillion photos of backsplashes, I agree with most of you about the simplicity being the better choice. But the reason i'm actually writing this first post here is just to say how refreshing it is to read your comments; after being on other blogs (like Apt. Therapy)where the people viciously attack each other, it is such a relief to get to know you all through your words that are complimentary and helpful at the same time! Classy is the word for you - thanks....See MoreCan anyone identify this backsplash? Thanks!
Comments (4)I have the same backsplash saved. This is from another picture of the same project: The tile is Vetro by Casa Dolce Casa in Matte Bianco. 8x10 Sfalsato Sheet (Stagger Set). We sourced it in Seattle at Statements Tile (www.statementstile.com)...See Morepupwhipped
