Q1. I am thinking of redoing my kitchen and want to look at backsplash tiles, what should I do first?

A: If you are starting from scratch, it usually makes sense to select your cabinets first, counter top second, then floor and last but not least, your backsplash. The backsplash is a great way to pull all of your selections together, much the way jewelry finalizes an outfit. That said, nothing is "set in stone". Your selections can be made in any order. We encourage you to order samples, thereby "trying on" your options in your lighting, with your other elements. It is very important to us that your selections look as great in your kitchen. Lastly, today's technology is a backsplash designer's friend. Take a snapshot of your kitchen and email it to us. Chances are we will see something that has us suggest tile you might not have considered.

Q2. Should my backsplash match my countertop or my cabinets?

A: To answer this question, you should ask yourself what you want to be the 'star' of your kitchen? Do you have a unique stone countertop that you want to accentuate? Do you have beautiful, ornate cabinetry with lots of architectural detail? In both these instances, a nice solution would be for the backsplash to quietly compliment rather than become another focal point. A backsplash that 'matches' or blends in with the countertop or cabinets also provides a beautiful backdrop for other items such as china, accessories, fabrics, etc.

Do you want the backsplash itself to be the excitement in the room? In this case, tile that either contrasts with the cabinets and/or incorporates many decorative elements such as glass, shine, metal, intricate patterns or designs will result in a backsplash that is beautiful, unique and creates drama on its own.
