Re: Backsplash help!

I just did our backsplash. We chose 3 x 3 beige travertine tiles. We then bought two two sheets of glass n beige travertine mix. My contractor put the travertine tiles all around n then scattered the glass tiles (3 x 3). I like the idea of glass tiles but in my opinion too much glass tiles takes away from granite..so this was the perfect option for us! Good luck

Re: Backsplash help!

We finished our kitchen remodel well over a year ago and I still don't have a backsplash installed! It was so hard for me to decide on the perfect fit for my kitchen.

Good news is I finally ordered my tile and should actually have a backsplash by the end of June.

Anyway, I picked a white thassos 2x4 subway tile as the main run and this really cool patterned tile for behind the rangetop (the patterned tile will be bordered by carrara framing tiles).

This is the pattern tile:

I chose very classic, timeless cabinetry and hardware etc., so I wanted to have a little fun with the backsplash, but also keep to the classic style of the kitchen. I'll post pics when it's done. Fingers crossed it all comes together!

Good luck in your search!
