Dear Friends:
I and my hubby are installing a backsplash in the kitchen that has light to golden oak cabinets, a dark blue gray counter and a light cream / beige flooring. Any ideas as to what backsplash I should choose to compliment my current colour scheme. Not forgetting kitchen is off while as well. A friend in need - Melanie

Happen to have a photo you can share with us all?
I like the idea of trying to go a lighter colour than the countertop. I have seen some black/gray/white glass tiles that I think would look fantastic. If not any colours that are lighter than your countertop would compliment it.
