Please help me pick a backsplash! (pics)
Comments (12)Herb ~ I thought about using an accent behind the cooktop but I'm not sure I like them! I really like the diamond too. Philo ~ I'll look at the waterjet tile tonight, thanks for the link! The cabinets were custom made by a local shop. I went with a 3" stile and rail and absolutely love the look. The leathered steel grey is even better in person ;) Barncatz ~ The first thing I learned on Houzz... everything looks better with your pet in the pic! Great idea about grouting the sheets... I wonder if they sell small samples? The convex tile was purchased at Arizona Tile and it's priced really well so using that would save me a ton! We put it up horizontally and vertically, I like it horizontal. H202 ~ Do you like the marble subway or the plain tile? Nosoccer ~ I love the look of that light grey grout. Mayflowers ~ Would the white diamond be too much pattern or should I be looking at texture vs color?...See MoreHelp me pick a grout color for my backsplash!
Comments (5)I think it looks just fine as is. Are you getting rid of the short granite backsplash? Are you adding the mosaic tile on top of the granite backsplash or with it removed? I think it would look too busy either way. Even with the grout a matching color, which would be best, I really think it would look better if you did nothing. Money saved! If you bought the tile already, just return it. Sorry if this doesn’t help. :-(...See MoreHelp me pick a backsplash - round 3
Comments (32)WOW,, this is a hard choice! When I cover two options to look at each one individually, they all look like great possibilities. Seriously they all look good. My question is which one is what you like? I know, you don't know hence the post with images... The hard part is the each one of us has a different monitor with variations on lighting. When I look at all three together the right one looks too dark. But then I cover the other two and right one could really work. Then I go back to the middle one saying with the right lighting and maybe their is more gray veining in the counter that could bring that color out. I go back to the first and say it has a slight green hint to the gray color and looks gorgeous...I always lean toward green so this could just be me. Which one? Which one? If I were making the choice right now based on the colors I see before me, I would choose the far right. It does appear darker than the others but it feels like it works with the counters. And something about the far right doesn't have green and while dark it seems to really match the counter. And if you have lots of light coming into the space it is not going to look to dark. And just seeing all your options is giving me lots to think about in my own space ahead....See MoreBacksplash trim layout for MCM kitchen - help!
Comments (4)I think in this case a metal Schluter system trim might be best so you don't have rough exposed edges. Unless this particular tile also has matching pencil liner, don't do it. You'll never match the whites. https://www.schluter.com/schluter-us/en_US/...See Morepalimpsest
