Glass Tile Backsplash Options For An Elegant Kitchen

Posts Tagged ‘dining room’

We are looking for suggestions for wall color and we aren’t afraid of color (liking the deep & luxurious family of colors by CIL), although we don’t know exactly what are our style is?? We are in a fairly new home with white baseboards and ceiling; the floors are a light oaky laminate. We have an open concept with our living room, dining room and kitchen, and all these rooms get a lot of sunlight. I attempted to attach a picture of these rooms as well, but was unable.
In the kitchen backsplash ideas, the cabinets are light oak as well and the coun

tertops are a lighter grey with some speckles. Our appliances are stainless steel. Our current kitchen table is a light pine (do you see the trend here?). Our living room furniture is a dark burgundy leather couch, sage green chaise and dark brown coffee/end tables.
We would like to have an accent wall (long wall connecting living to dining room) and we like either the Pepper Spice or Cigar brown by CIL. What would be a good color to use on other walls? Do you have any other color combination suggestions? Also, would it work if I used the accent wall color on the kitchen backsplash ideas as well?
thanks,

I have no idea what color combinations to go with in my kitchen & dining room. They are connected & open like one large room with the counter/bar seperating them. My kitchen cabinets are oak with formica countertop in a Natural Canvas (creamy beige) and natural hickory wood floors. I don’t have a theme but I do have roosters around only because I like the colors; the reds, green, beige, purple & blues. I like sage green & terra cotta would they work together? The walls also need texture.
The backsplash; should I try to match it with the counter or the cabinets? I like the pressed tin or stone type tile squares.
What type of draperies should I go with for the sliding glass doors? I hate to loose the view completely; its nothing but acres of woods behind our house; totally private with the exception of deer, squirrels & a woodpecker that visit.

Kitchen remodel. Painting cabinets high gloss white, installing a shiny beige marble type tile for flooring, looking at a dark gray countertop. Also hoping to do 1 x 1 light blue glass mosiac tile backsplash and paint the walls a corresponding blue color. But not really sure if all of that clashes with the beige floor. Should I be going in a different direction? Also, the rest of the main floor is a deep gold tan with red accents and mahogany furniture. It’s pretty dark. Would the kitchen clash with the rest of the house? Opinions? The only thing that is definite is the white color of the cabinets and the beige tile floor, everything else is unpurchased. Thanks in advance!!

Add: The tan paint extends from the foyer, through the dining room and living room. The kitchen and half bath are the only things on the floor that aren’t the Harvest Brown. Can I get exact examples of a color choice for the kitchen? What about the half bath?

The kitchen and half bath are the only things on the floor that aren’t the Harvest Brown. If I were to go in the sage/moss green direction, can I get exact examples of a color choice for the kitchen? There’s so many different shades, I can never tell well enough to match. Right now my half bath is white, but I would like to paint that too. Should I paint both the kitchen and bath green? I’m kind of lost there too.

I’m finally getting rid of my 1961 kitchen and can’t make up my mind! I have hard oak floors throughout the house..including the dining room which is open to the kitchen. I’d like to put in cork floors (& be somewhat "green" in my remodeling) in the kitchen and think it would blend nice with the oak floors (unless someone thinks of something else?) I can’t decide what would look better..maple or natural cherry cabinets. The kitchen is only 10×13 and will be putting in 40" cabinets since I have a cathedral ceiling…does cherry and oak clash? Too much natural wood tones going on? I’d like to put a apron front / farm sink in, granite countertops and tin backsplash..those I do know I want… I need a professional designer but that’s definately not in the budget. All opinions and suggestions are welcome….I have to order cabinets within 2 weeks!!! Thanks All !!
I can’t go too modern with a house full of antiques..i’m in the country and am shooting for a modern/classic/simple country feel..with stainless appliances of course. I did not want oak cabinets, but with oak floors it makes sense. it’s a starter house and resale is everything..what do people like?

I want to add a glass tile mosaic backsplash to my kitchen something like this color but hopefully with a little more greens and reds……

I painted my walls a gold but now hate it and am trying to find a good color to replace it. I have painted two test spots with Benjamin Moore paints Nantucket Gray and Olive Branch. Neither of them is making me go "Oh thats it". My whole living and dining room area is painted Bassett Hall Gold from Porter Paints (which is a deep kahaki color) so I am trying to stay away from beiges. I am eventually going to get dark cabinets and a beigey countertop if this helps. Any suggestions would be great!
My kitchen started off a pale yellow, but because we have a big window in the kitchen it was almost blinding when the sun would shine in….Also I am trying not to go too dark as I am afraid it will look much like a dungeon once I get the dark cabinets in. The paint color Olive Branch I have up is like a sage green….but I keep feeling like I SHOULD go darker….but again am afraid it will be too dark with the cabinets.
