Kitchen backsplash design dilemma
Comments (13)Really love your tiles. I like the idea of the slate, but have you checked to see if the tile maker makes border tiles? What color are your cabinets going to be? Another thought, what kind of range is it? If it's gas, I would think that wood would be out because of the combustibility issue. I know it would not be to code here. Really want to see how this looks installed. Please post pictures when you get done....See Morekitchen backsplash and counter dilemma
Comments (112)Hi Everyone, Just wanted to check back in after a year with the stone. It has really grown on me as a feature I love. Cleaning has not been bad. Actually some pasta sauce dumped on wall behind cooktop and it was ok to clean with a scrub brush and water (cleaned right when it happened). Elsewhere, it has been fine after initial clean and seal. Just vacuumed it once with a brush tip. I also want to thank everyone for their opinions, advice, kind words, and - most of all - the encouragement! As a mostly DIYer, I always wanted to design and build a home. This was my first whole-home-reno, and I learned a lot and the encouragement provided by many, including y’all, really helped my confidence. I am very proud to say that the home was entered in NARI Meta / CoTY for whole-home-reno and it won for local-chapter and Southwest region. Thanks again everyone & do not fear stacked stone backsplashes!...See Morekitchen backsplash liner dilemma
Comments (7)Lol, yes, it’s a DiY job. The end wall tile goes there because the kitchen countertop extends all the way there and it just looked weird stopping it before the countertop. We didn’t want to leave the sink without backsplash. Did I mention it’s a DIY because the original contractor left with us without kitchen (and 12K) for three months? May just leave it without then. Thanks for the input....See MoreKitchen Design: Window Woes & A Backsplash Dilemma
Comments (6)Wow I guess we all have different eyes. I would change backsplash to a white subway , paint walls lighter (near white) keep cabs and counter as is and get a custom treatment for existing window(swing arm w classy fabric you can swing open or close or halfway if not sitting at desk) . A white subway tile with tan/brown grout showing in same position as your tile and whitish walls would do a lot. You want the 4 in backsplash and rip out that granite and paint the cabs and pay to rip out a unique window? I'm confused then. The cabs in truth are good looking but older w no drawers. Best leave them add hardware as you will want to replace at a certain point....See MoreMichelle
