Operation Kitchen Backsplash

I FINALLY, yes 5 years after buying my house, have a backsplash in my kitchen!! After buying my house in 2009, a kitchen backsplash was on my top 5 things I wanted to go along with panting, fixing up the yard, new carpet and new bathroom lighting- of course, all 4 other projects got done and the little old backsplash project was left on the back burner for 5 years. Well, not anymore! It's done and it's beautiful!! I finally got serious about getting this gone after the new year, so I proceed to make a few phone calls to see if I could hire someone to get it done, only to find out it's CRAZY expensive even if you buy your own supplies. I finally decided to text my friend Lindsay to see if her husband, Jon, knew anyone who would do it for a reasonable price. Little did I know... Jon was willing to take on the project himself and for his first time doing a tile job I would say he's a natural! It looks amazing!!! It really sets off the downstairs and is now my favorite part of the kitchen. Check out some pictures. . .  




Kitchen in 2009 after moving it. Got a fresh coat of paint, but no backsplash! ;)


Isn't this color beautiful! ♥


Here is the kitchen in 2014! It looks SO much better!!
Hmmmm.... next project is Operation: Guestroom Makeover! 

Stay tuned!
