With two backsplashes to paint in the same neighborhood, we decided to make a weekend of it and had a total blast painting next-door-neighbors, Robyn's and Ann's backplashes! Robyn was envisioning dark browns and chocolates, and just let us go to town! Nick has his measuring down to an art... and we've got a system down that allows us to punch these babies out in 2 1/2 - 3 hours!Robyn's kitchen ... [ Read More ]

Ann is the daughter of Stan and Sue, and also has an amazing house... with a very creative and funky vibe. We loved her design style and the fact that she wanted to be wild with the painting of her backplash! She has a green/blue thing going on in her kitchen and dining room, and wanted us to use these pieces as inspiration. And she, literally, wanted a green and blue backsplash. FUN! So the ...

Mary and her husband decided it was time.  Time for the kitchen to be resurrected from the dead. And during the process, they learned how many things can go wrong with kitchen remodels and hiring subcontractors (and they weren't even replacing cabinets!). But the results are always worth it... even if it means painting your walls 5 times before you find the color you want.The one thing that ... [ Read More ]

Now that we're painting so many backsplashes these days, I have every intention of being more selective about which ones I blog about. I don't want to bore ya'll!!But I had to share Heather's backsplash. It was a tough decision for them, with so many color options to choose from, but they opted for this fun tumbled travertine look... and I'm glad they did!Painting backsplashes are very ...

Every other weekend, Nick and I have a day off together. And as of late, we've been spending it painting backsplashes... which is not only fun and rewarding, it's also helping us build our Fertility Fund at an astonishing rate. My cousin Sarah asked if we could come do our 'magic' in her kitchen, and we were delighted!Sarah requested neutral beigey browns to compliment her red accents and ... [ Read More ]

Our new friend, Kim, found it necessary to spice up her already spicy 'Fat Italian Chef' themed kitchen by hiring us to paint her backsplash. I've been hoping and praying for quite some time for someone to be even more obnoxious than I, and feel the need to do something crazy with the colors of their backsplash. The reason for this is, in part, to see how awesome it looks. But also to show the ... [ Read More ]

In addition to working an absurd amount of hours, the hubs and I have enjoyed our new side business of painting backsplashes. Word of mouth spreads fast, and we're suddenly in high demand!!!   :)These are pictures of our friends, Ben and Stacy's lovely kitchen, as well as Nick's highly skilled abstract photography... ...

Yesterday, the man-boy and I road-tripped to Des Moines to let our creative juices flow... and to add to our fertility fund. You think babies are expensive? Try $12,000 just to conceive!!! Our new friend, Jill, responded to a craigslist ad we had posted, and hired us to come and beautify her already beautiful gourmet kitchen. It's amazing what a little acrylic paint can do!Nick quickly went ... [ Read More ]
