Macy, Live_wire_oak, I searched ebay and the big mosaic sellers and even emailed them pictures. I didn't have any luck so far. Also local tile stores, no luck. They all told me if you come up with a design, we can have an artist copy it onto tile or mosaic. I am not a good enough artist to make a design. If I don't find either of these, my default plan is to use a monochromatic raised fruit bowl that I did find in biscuit color and whitish color, probably with the same color field tile and black marble frame. Would biscuit or whitish backsplash go best with neutral white cabinets and black stone countertops?

Catmom's came to mind but probably not b/c I don't see the small brown tiles. Scroll down to the second set of pics in the thread. Still love her kitchen. Here is a link that might be useful: this one?

What is the color of your walls? Do you have stainless steel appliances? If not what color? You could carry the soapstone up the walls. Perhaps with a cream glass tile accent border part way up. I saw one large glass tile on line that was called cappochino. It was dark brown--almost black with streaks of a reddish brown that would pick up the cherry and the color of the counter. If you have stainless steel appliances you could go with stainless steel tiles. or you could match the tile to your cherry, perhaps with a small insert of individual cream and gray tiles. Or you could take a different tack altogether and go with a tone of your wall color, since you counter or cabinet colors are all neutrals almost any color will go If you can take samples of everything in to the tiles store when you choose and look on line for possibilities

I'm not sure how I came across this post, I think it was displayed on the right side and I clicked on it being intrigued by the tile making. I was at one time interested in working with papercrete and hypertufa. But after enlisting my brother, who wasn't as enthusiastic, and my niece, who poured cement down my laundry room sink, which original to the house had lasted 70 years, and ruining three blenders, my interest waned. True to form, if I come upon difficulty in a project, I think of it as a sign for me not to continue. And really, after all these years of trying various crafts that result in crap, I should know better. I also should have known better than to ask my brother, who always says it can't be done to any of my unique design ideas. And I should have known better than to ask my niece, who once stayed up all night before having to drive to LA for an art show, cutting mat after mat after measuring once, twice, sometimes ten times, but always coming out with the wrong size. I think we both have math dyslexia. I should video us trying anything crafty to see where we go wrong. I think both of us having ADHD might have something to do with it. Sorry for the backstory and run on sentences. So, I just wanted to see if you continued with your venture. And to say sorry for whatever tragedy occurred to cause you to have to move to Florida. Not that there is anything wrong with Florida, but it isn't Panama. Which is one of my favorite places in the western hemisphere. I hope no one is upset that I brought up a seven year old post.
