Christal’s Backsplash

June 27, 2011 by Bethany Sy

Christal had a special request for us... she wanted an aged brick backsplash for her "Pottery Barn meets rustic" home to be completed before her hubby comes home from Afganistan on July 3 as a surprise! And I'm not gonna lie... having never tackled 'aged brick' I was a little nervous and did a lot of Google Image research on old brick.Here's Christal's before shot:Nick did some research of his ...

Josh & Dixie’s Backsplash

June 26, 2011 by Bethany Sy

You got it, it's another backsplash. This weekend, we didn't need to travel far for this client! Josh is one of Nick's co-workers, and we were excited to do our magic in their kitchen!Their only stipulation is that the backsplash be awesome. We took that as a personal challenge, and threw in all the bells and whistles!Love these little vertical squares!!We kept things neutral in color so they can ... [ Read More ]

Janet’s Backsplash

June 21, 2011 by Bethany Sy

I know I'm pretty consistent with posting a backsplash each Monday morning... but yesterday? It just didn't happen. I was tired, uncomfortable, and thought I might potentially be in labor. Turns out the babies have shifted... Baby B has taken over as first to exit. And those naughty girls are both breach. They have about 10 days to get it together before things get too tight to move... around 34 ... [ Read More ]

Lynne’s Backsplash

June 13, 2011 by Bethany Sy

I wish you all could see me taping and painting a backsplash. I think I could probably sell tickets to that show. I get in a lunge position with my feet, which puts me at a perfect height to position the edge of the countertop snugly in the crevice between my bosom and belly. I can only do this for so long before I need to sit down and take 5... or even lay down on a client's couch. Nick's ... [ Read More ]

Melea’s Backsplash

June 6, 2011 by Bethany Sy

Melea loved the idea of having a backsplash in her kitchen, but didn't love the price tag of expensive tile and labor, not to mention how long and messy a process it is. So naturally, she loved the cost, versatility and instant gratification of our painted backsplashes!! We aim to please!Although her wall was already a neutral color that could have worked as a grout line, we talked her into ... [ Read More ]

Kathy’s Backsplash

May 30, 2011 by Bethany Sy

YAY!!! We're back at it! This past weekend, we partook in painting our first backsplash since the girls were born. It's been a nice two month siesta, but it feels good to jump back into our creative niche. Kathy was one of my coworkers at the clinic, and she was willing to be our guinea pig for seeing how it would all work bringing the girls with us on the job!Here's Kathy's kitchen... she ...

Deb’s Backsplash

May 23, 2011 by Bethany Sy

Well snap, it's Monday again. It's been an interesting weekend, filled with drywall dust, crafting and napping! Also, I felt Baby B's hiccups for the first time... fun!I'm a little late on blogging today, but that's just the way it goes sometimes.Deb was a client who was referred to us by our Interior Design friend, Jodi! Her kitchen desperately needed some lovin'... and lucky for her, we're in ... [ Read More ]

Lisa’s Backsplash

May 16, 2011 by Bethany Sy

Oh happy Monday. The sun is shining and the birds are chirping... yet somehow I still feel like putting myself on self-inflicted bedrest. I'm sure I wouldn't like that for very long though. But enough about me...Lisa was blessed with a very impressive kitchen to begin with, but sometimes (OK pretty much always) a kitchen just looks naked without a backsplash!! Her kitchen is so large it took TWO ... [ Read More ]

Heidi’s Backsplash

May 9, 2011 by Bethany Sy

Lately, we've been having lots of backsplash clients who are... daring to say the least. And Heidi is no exception. Being a lover of orange myself, I immediately fell in love with Heidi's wild orange cabinets! (though you'll probably never see me painting my own cabinets orange... don't need to when I can enjoy them at Heidi's house!)She wanted the majority of the backsplash to look like natural ...

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 ... [ Read More ]
