Looking for pics of SS counter and painted glass backsplash

15 years ago

I tried the search but got hits on canning and tillers so I am taking the easy way and asking for help.

Looking for pictures of stainless steel counters and comments of your experience with them. The other thing I am interested in is Painted Glass backsplashes. Anyone tried this?

Below is a link to 5 kitchens in the Finished Kitchens Blog that have stainless counters. Here is a photo of ours. We've only been in the house since the end of Feb., and obviously the kitchen isn't quite finished, but we do like the stainless counters. They certainly scratch, but we expected that...They're supposed to look better the more they are scratched and it becomes more of an all-over look. It's great to be able to set hot things on them and not worry about it.

Here is a link that might be useful: kitchens w/stainless counters from the FKB

Thanks for the links and your picture. It was interesting seeing the stainless matched with the granite. Gave me some ideas.

A few ideas... Antiqued mirror ... As subtle or as blotchy as you like, for that Cafe Flore look Antique tiles ... Moroccan is so hot right now, there are some very cool encaustics, new and old. I had a link but can't find it on my iPad. For new stuff, try Tabarka Art - it could be a great space for a line up of small framed oils. I always see lovely little painting but wonder where to put them. Or specimen boxes. Or framed dishtowels or vintage textiles. Color - maybe a rich pop of color, like farrow and ball brinjal ... Enamel even.

Most who get stainless counters opt for the integral backsplash of at least the 2". Many opt for the 6". Putting beadboard above that should be fine, but I wouldn't forgo the integral backsplash with stainless at all. It's functional.

Thanks prill...I'm leaning towards only doing tile in area to the left of the casing...then in the window area just doing paint and the casing down to the counter. I guess I'll just have to be more dilligent with cleaning. The Reef was the first tile that spoke to me...I really thought I was going to go for a more solid blue, but reef is so much softer....it allows me to play up the color of the walls more...not that I have a lot of walls...And, I found out that my designer can get it for about 12.50/sf where I was quoted around $15/sf.

Dear Denise, Beautiful! The black cosmic granite is gorgeous and works very well with your new backsplash, subltle detail in backsplash, and existing cabinets. I also love the swirl in your granite. I searched for many black granites and didn't see a cosmic that pretty. It all sets the stage so well for your great Bluestar. Bravo!

Hi Justmeinsd,
Try using the search function at the bottom of the page. It'll keep you in the Kitchens Forum so you're not getting hits on "canning and tillers". HTH :-)
