We really thought our kitchen could use a touch of robin egg’s blue.
Jokes. I just quickly photoshopped all of the area that we’re planning on tiling so you can get a visual. Â The whole backsplash area and around the pantry. Â And, of course, the other side of the fridge as well.
We have always planned on doing a classic white subway tile, but we are still deciding on exactly which one. We are partnering with The Tile Shop for this project and have narrowed it down to our four favorites from their collection.
The first is a glossy, ceramic white tile in the most common size.  It is classic and we love that–but might want to branch out? The second is a marble subway tile–so, swoon! The third and fourth are also white subway tiles but in less common sizes, which could be an unexpected twist on the classic. We’re still deciding–but feel free to venture a guess.


i am guessing 1. or 3. maybe. but 1.
can’t wait to see! i am sure it will be gorgeous!
I love marble subway tile, but I don’t think it fits. I can really see #1 in your kitchen! I hope you go with #1. It’s classic. Your kitchen is small so you don’t need the larger size, and the smaller size might look busy.
3 all the way
#2 seems like a no brainer in my book! I loooove Carrera countertops…. But if you can’t have it in countertop form, a backsplash would suffice… That way the kitchen still gets that Carrera look. + with those walnut countertops?? Done & done! Also, the real estate agent/developer in me thinks bringing marble into the kitchen is a great selling point as well… Seems much more high end that way!
If the Tile Shop is covering the expenses, why WOULDN’T you go with number 2?! :)
