Kitchen Backsplash

Apply a Unique Backsplash
Paige designed a custom antiqued mirror backsplash for the stove. It reflects light and gives the cook a glimpse of the room behind her, or the guests seated at the bar. Installed in 14¾" x 17¼" pieces, the backsplash “has a casual look and is easy to keep up. It already has a vintage appearance, so you really can’t see spots on it,” says Paige. The aged mirror is a nice counterpoint to the sleek stainless steel stove and the bright white cabinets.
