We started putting up this backsplash but are not sure about it now that it's up. We're either grouting tomorrow or tearing it down. Whatcha think???


Thanks!!!!

    I think it's too busy for the countertop, and not the right color - sorry..

      I agree with tgb1 sorry...a simple white subway tile would probably be best

      I agree with above. Just too busy. General rule of thumb is have variations/movement in either backsplash or countee but not both. White grout would mute it a little but not enough. White subway would look much better

      Beautiful backsplash and beautiful counters....not sure I like them together. I think it might be a little too much pattern for all of the movement in the granite. I'd go solid or at least less variation with perhaps bigger tiles. Good luck!

      You could go with a "tumbled" stone subway tile, if plain white subway is too boring for you. That would give you the same warm, natural feel of that this backsplash has, without competing wth the granite and being too busy.

      Think a simple, single-colored backsplash would work well. Current combo too overwhelming. Be sure to add your final project to this thread. Good luck!

      The granite is beautiful and the tile is beautiful but I think they're too much and too busy together. What about adding another tile to the mix? Possibly a 3 x 5 subway tile in a solid color pulled from the backsplash and maybe another trim piece... possibly a stainless pencil liner trim molding (if you have stainless steel appliances that is).... remove some of the backsplash tiles (at the bottom of the backsplash wall) and add this subway tile and trim piece. These will break up the busyness and should look great .... Of course lay it out and play with it before making it permanent

      Thanks all! Love the thoughts! Really helps put a finger on what we're not feeling with it. It's going down, I'm yelling TIMBER, lol!! Maybe put it up in a bathroom and put something simpler up in here. Thanks again.

      By the way, the other issue is that the size of the Herringbone patterned backsplash is roughly the same size as the "pattern" of the granite. If one or the other was much larger scale, and with slightly less contrast, it might fly.

      But if wishes were horses, beggars would ride! LOL. Good luck ;-)

      Your granite has all the splash you need. Go for a single color backsplash, and while,you might think black is a great color, you should try to closely match the main cream color in your stone, in tumble travertine would be nice and then use grout that is the closest color to the new tumbled stone.

      I agree with tumbled travertine.

      Jennifer said it exactly, the patterns are too similar in scale.
