Need backsplash suggestion :)
Comments (2)Can you define "not too expensive" in $/sf? Also, I can't see your counter very well, so I can't get an idea of how much movement or what colors are really there, which makes it hard to make a suggestion. Could you post a close-up image? Two good options for you would be sheet glass or Claymond sheet tile from Fireclay, but neither is inexpensive. I'm not sure why you can't find 6" x 18" tile, but it's out there. The first one below is Athens Gris marble and sells for $8 a tile. Below that is White Venatino marble from Lowes, $88 for 12 tiles. Do a Google search for 6" x 18" tile then hit the Shopping tab. You'll see lots of options....See MoreBacksplash? No backsplash? What kind of backsplash?
Comments (25)didn't have time to read all the answers. I have no backsplash and have never regretted it...been over 6 yrs. It is painted with BM matte...which has ceramic in it. It is as beautiful now as it was when first painted. I love the fact that I can showcase other things ...art etc in my kitchen and no competition. Also if I ever want to change it is as quick as a paint brush...expense is minimal..paint only ! All in all I think it is serene as you point out . Here is one pick. Since I have a lot of high heat cooking in my kitchen..built in deep fat fryer as well as gas cook top I can definitely speak to the longevity of paint only. c ( more at this album )...See MoreTile Back-Splash Placement Advice Needed

Comments (12)Okay so sadly the problem is we end up needing an entire slab for the backsplash behind the stove, another whole slab for the backsplash behind the sink, 2 slabs for the counters and then have nothing left for the backsplash where the fridge is. In another jigsaw variation we had everything we need except the backsplash above the stove, or we had more seams behind the sink, or an uneven rise, or mismatched veining directions. Nothing worked without adding seams. We were already annoyed about having to buy a 4th slab because the measurements weren’t taken right, but then they told us we needed more even after that, and I’m just ready to move on. Now I need to figure out what tiles to use. We have mixed metal finishes (champagne bronze handles, brushed nickel faucet) and we mix warm and cool tones throughout the house. Don’t want grey. Don’t want white....See More- 7 years ago
