think countertops make the kitchen? you’ve been fooled

Warning: this is an opinion piece, meaning we have strong feelings about backsplashes. And you may feel differently.

We believe the following will make sure you avoid the most common backsplash mistakes:

1.There can be only one finish, either the countertops or the backsplash, with a strong pattern or sense of busyness.
2.The colors of the countertop and backsplash need to be of the same tone so that they blend.

That’s it! That’s the prescription for a beautiful kitchen relationship.
