It just gets better and better...

It took two days and some very sore shoulders and arms, but the backsplash is done.

That is a very smart kitchen - and so much room too. It must have been a lot of work but I'm sure it's worth it.

The kitchen is enormous! That really comes in to play with the flooring. 264 square feet of bamboo!!! I love the big kitchen though. In the opposite end from the cabinets/stove/frig I have a 6 foot long farm table where we eat most of our meals...and the room is not at all crowded. For a fairly small (by American standards) house, over half of it is kitchen and living room, and I like it like that. Giant bedrooms are highly over rated. All you do is sleep in them. I prefer to have more room in my public rooms for entertaining.

I like the asymmetry in the detail over the stove - it breaks the subway layout. I think doing the small tiles as an accent is better than doing the whole backsplash, even if money wasn't an issues. Very small tiles makes walls look too busy, imho.

Congrats on finally nearing the finish line. I hope you spam us with plenty of photos once the cabinet doors are in, so we can see the full result.

What is up with those 's'-es at the end of my verbs? I have no idea how they got there! :-)

Thanks! I think an upcoming project will be an attempt to replicate those yummy biscuits we had yesterday!

Unfortunately the photo doesn't do the glass tiles justice. They literally sparkle and look deep! Really cool. You'll have to come 'up the mountain' for a look!

Some of us, not saying who, are very envious of your many and varied talents....

[Just for the sake of argument - Is there anything you do that isn't amazing?]
