 Can someone help me pick a backsplash? 
This is the a sample of the granite counter in the kitchen.  Appliances are stainless and floor is wood (on the darker side).
  What color do you think would look nice for a backsplash?  I love the look of glass tile but I'm a little lost with this...I'm open to all suggestions.  
  Please post pics if you have!
  TIA!    Image Attachment(s):

 Re: Can someone help me pick a backsplash?

I'm thinking of doing a glass tile backsplash, too.  Maybe we can go shopping together when you come.
  Oh..and btw...you have a roof.  Congrats...it looks like a house!!!!!

What color is the granite looks very similar to the one we have. 
  I will take photos of our backsplash and post sometime this weekend.

 Re: Can someone help me pick a backsplash? 
I like the idea of tumbled marble but then some accent of glass tile since you really like it...like maybe a stripe of rectangular glass tile across the backsplash, or done in a design over the stove.

Love the granite!!! Maybe a natural stone backsplash? That is what we plan on doing in our kitchen.
