My gorgeous new kitchen backsplash
Larry the tile guy and his assistant finished putting up the beautiful tile accent for the area above the kitchen sink. It's made out of hand-carved marble. We added the decorative picture-frame border around it, and then set a tile made of travertine to provide a backsplash in that area. An employee at the tile store had the good idea to set the tiles on the diagonal, which I think really adds to the visual appeal.
All in all, this really provides a beautiful focus to the kitchen and makes up for losing the window over the sink. And it's *infinitely* better than looking at a blank wall while I'm washing the dishes!

Oh!! It's so BEAUTIFUL!! Love the selection of tile and picture frame border ideas is fantastic!! I just love the complete sink area!!
Those tiles are beautiful! I hope I can get those 2 remodelers MN has to make my kitchen as beautiful as that. I've been wanting to have my house undergo a major remodeling. Minneapolis' weather could be very cold, that's why. We want to remodel everything in such a way that we'll save energy, and so that our house will become beautiful again.
