back in business

Phew! A little 10 dollar card reader was all that stood between me and photo uploading. Good thing it wasn't worse.

What a GREAT weekend-- gorgeous weather, catnaps on the porch, cleaning the house, Murphy's oiling all the wood floors- it smells great and clean and fresh and completely dustless. How did we ever live with carpet before... Seriously?

Anyway, no need to hold your breath any longer... without further adieu...

...Our BACKSPLASH!!!

I think it was one of, if not *the* most successful remodeling projects I've ever tackled. It was challenging- but not too hard, relatively inexpensive (but doesn't look cheap), and overall, I think,completely takes the kitchen to a new level.

Can you tell I love the way it turned out?

Anyone want to tile a backsplash? I'll be there to help!

I especially love the way it looks at night. Really, this picture doesn't capture it... but the little light that glows down really makes the tiles look beautiful.
Today I took some cleaner and sealer to it-- especially made for sensitive stones like Travertine.
The things you learn when you do home projects.
