Jody’s Backsplash

May 2, 2011 by Bethany Sy

This may just be the BIGGEST backsplash we’ve painted… ever. But it turned out to be pretty impressive with the little black accent tiles coordinating with her black appliances and decor. And… Jody has twins too! So we had lots to talk about. Here’s her naked kitchen:

And after we got our hands on it…

It’s almost like the backsplash makes the kitchen feel even bigger! And more gourmet! Hope you love it Jody!

    I want to do this in my kitchen and I know it has been a few years since you did this one. BUT do you know the colors and paint you used and if you had a pattern you worked off of?

      Hey Stephanie, we just used a variety of shades of brown acrylic paint for this. And for the pattern, we measured every 4 inches and drew out our grid with a pencil, and then applied the 1/4″ painters tape! Hope this helps 🙂

    Hey! We made the blog! How cool is that? And we LOVE the backsplash and have gotten so many compliments already. I keep directing them to your blog to get it done for themselves.
