I am at a loss. This is my Christmas present from Trent this year: my pretty kitchen backsplash which we have avoided putting in for a year and a half now. Done! Gorgeous, huh! Could he be cuter or more handy? I think not.
So, here's the problem: It's done, up, and beautiful, now we have to grout. What color? I know, most people think grout only comes in white (this is what we call a contractor special at our house: a choice that all contractors use because they are men and don't know what else to do. Cheapest and easiest). The kind of grout Trent gets come in about thirty different colors. I've narrowed it down....but now I'm stuck. Help!
We have Summer Tan, which matches that one yellowish tile perfectly, but remember, the grout will fill in all the little holes in limestone tiles. Do I want yellowish holes on my pretty tile? I don't know?
This is Chamois. Very neutral.
Darkest of the bunch: Mocha.
So it's down to Mocha, Chamois, Summer Tan, or Biscuit (I would normally consider this off white to be a contractor special, but I am thinking it might make the glass tile look really good?). What's your favorite? Let me know! I'm getting desperate. Trent has a big cabinet order starting soon and if this tile doesn't get grouted this week, it could be another year and a half before it's done!
