Install tile backsplash in kitchen

I made an appointment to see tile at Ann Sacks this past weekend (One hurdle down!) and brought home some very unique tile samples. These aluminum tiles look simply awesome with our Blue Pearl granite, alder cabinets and stainless steel appliances. Stellar!

Next step: Measure how many sf we need… and order!

So the hard thing about picking tile has been 1) the stores are only open from 9-5 and 2) all the tile looks the same. I work from 8-5 and I’m bored of the same old boring tile. This weekend I followed a link from my favorite blog (www.dooce.com) and discovered www.annsacks.com. They have super awesome tile, a showroom in Denver and weekend appointments! I want to weep with joy!!

The tile in the picture is my current front-runner.
