I'm looking for glass tiles that will pick up one or more of the colors
in the granite. I'm so glad I didn't have the granite back edge put on,
because it helps visually enlarge the space, don't you think? The
backsplash will run from top to bottom.

The old wall paper needs to come off. In the kitchen itself it leaves
very little wall (that won't be tiled) left to deal with. Not sure what
to do?
Then the entire breakfast area will need either a complimentary paint or
paper job. If I go to paper again i'm leaning on a "texture only" paper.
Wanna pick something out for me? I NEED your skills!
