I'm kind of back to square one with the backsplash. I ordered the floor tile and that's super exciting! It should be here in about 3 weeks. Here's the outline for the center pattern, or as Jason commented "the crime scene where the drywall's body was found":
However, they gave me a 6x6" square of it to take home and now that I have it next to the Calacatta Gold and the classic white Subway tiles it doesn't seem to go with either.
So the search for backsplash tile continues.
I am loving my kitchen! Sometimes I just turn on all the undercabinet and in-cabinet lights, leave the room, then go back in just so I can get the full effect. I compulsively rinse my sink and wipe the countertops because they're just too pretty to leave them anything less than perfect.
I painted it a really warm taupe:
Unfortunately I can't just paint a tiny section and accurately judge if I'll like it, so I painted it 4 times before I settled on that color. Luckily for me it's a small kitchen. Of course then it didn't really go with the butter yellow walls in the dining and living room, so I had to paint them too. Now I think maybe I need to reupholster my couch because it doesn't quite go with the walls. That's the unforeseen cost of painting.
p.s. Check out the water running from my awesome faucet into my even more awesome (as if that's possible) sink:
