Alice’s Backplash

August 30, 2010 by Bethany Sy

Alice and her hubs have been doing some updating to their home, and lucky for us, that included a brand new painted backsplash!! In fact, they tore out actual tile for us to custom paint it to their specifications! Granted, the previous tile was old sterile-white ceramic tile, probably original to the house.

Alice opted for a light neutral look, with a darker beige grout. It provides a subtle, yet light and airey feeling in her kitchen!

Sorry my ‘before’ picture is post-tile-demolition. Use your imagination… a lot of white basically. We like to think of that as: a blank slate.  🙂

Alice and Dan! Thanks for your contribution to our future family!
