Allison’s Backsplash

by

It's all about word of mouth, people! Our girl Allison brought us in to spice up her kitchen with a chic, modern backsplash. Up until last week, her backsplash was painted the same blue/gray as her wall, but because she didn't want that as her 'grout' color, she slapped on a coat of white paint! Allison opted for a neutral travertine, as she's been known to change out the wall color from time to ... [ Read More ]

Budget Kitchen Updates! {Accent Wall and Faux Painted Backsplash!}

by

The daunting lighting situation was finally resolved and cleaned up, and I had a glimmer of an idea to paint something special on this one wall! I toyed around with lots of different ideas. But in the end, I decided on this subtle swirly pattern. I chose flat paint for this one wall, and bought the same color (Pittsburgh Paints in Deep Emerald) in high gloss... I'm sure you could use a clear ... [ Read More ]

Ann’s Backsplash

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 ...

Such a tribute to see how their home and love for each other has grown over the years. Happy Anniversary Stan and ... [ Read More ]

Mary J’s Backsplash

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 ]
