We’ve spent the last few months transforming an old bathroom into the kitchen of our dreams and even though we’ve made loads of progress, the kitchen still isn’t very functional - so this week we are focusing on organization and function AND adding a bit more style.

Personally I think you should finish your cabinets and then paint them, to then decide your backsplash because they are both pretty and I too love mood and I’m struggling 😅
Yes it's hard to pick without seeing the painted cabinet doors next to it for the overall look.
I too think it will be easier with the cabinets done.
And put the stove in place for the full look
I also thought about cleanability. Those shinier tiles look like they would clean better, and I love the dark moodiness of them. Does everything need to be matte? I think a bit of shine would offset the other surfaces and really pop :) But I would also wait and see the other things in place too before I decide!
Totally agree. The finished cabinets would likely determine which tiles look best.
My two cents: if you’re going with the black tile backsplash (my favorite). I’d lay it in herringbone or subway to keep a more classic look because the black tile itself is very modern. If you go with the natural stone, lay it vertical like you want to bring a more modern look to the rustic tile. ❤
DEF!
Agreed!!
I disagree, I think up and down and more timeless and modern at the same time
Is more*
Yes herringbone is a good idea
For the kitchen stools, would you consider adding cushions to raise the seating height a couple inches? It could be cute to choose the fabric and be able to change them up for holiday/seasonal decor!
Use the black tile in a herringbone pattern above the stove and the other tile as a border and for the rest of the entire backsplash
Love this idea! I'd also steer clear of castors on hardwoods especially on a frequently moved/used piece like a kitchen stool. There's always the chance that they could damage the flooring
Agreed! I think even a double herringbone pattern would look super cool. Nix the wheels to much ware on the floors. Add some thick pillow tops adds texture and warmth.
@@kathyriddock5848 loooove that idea. Hope she reads it
Absolutely amazing idea👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Girl!! You’re a freaking carpenter!! The projects you can do now are so legit! It’s been so fun watching you build your tool collection and increase in your skill level. You’re pro level DIYer now and I am here for it!
Yes! I can't even get my bedroom to look neat N tidy and she's out there renovating two houses and building kitchens!! Urgh!
I think for a kitchen you should do the dark shiny tile. The shiny tile is going to be a lot easier to clean off any grease than the matte tile. Love the moodiness too
Agreed. The first thing I thought of was grease splatter.
Came here to say this. The "textured" tile is going to have to either be sealed multiple times or be impossible to clean. Not a good tile for over the stove imo. Love the moody, too.
I was thinking the same! Cleaning that rustic tile is going to be a nightmare. Plus, the moody tile is just soooo pretty!
I totally agree!
I disagree. The textured tile will have to be sealed anyway, so this enables them to be cleaned.
Shiny above a stove is a really good idea as it is far easier to clean. I also absolutely love the dark tile. It will make the kitchen look far more interesting
Really loving the rustic tile after seeing the whole kitchen on 5:55. It just fit with the house aesthetic really much, it will give a victorian / french traditional kitchen vibes! Also i think adding the dark tile will "force" your eyes to stop and look at the kitchen and not let your eyes wander through out the other spaces ( dining room for ex. ) since other space is so light
KREG makes a jig for installing drawer glides! Makes it super simple and takes the guess work out. Your fearlessness to try new things is inspiring and your joyful personality is infectious! You are doing an amazing job!
I love the shiny tiles! They will be so much easier to clean than the light ones
I also worry that the rough “unfinished” rustic stone will absorb odors too 😅
Yes! The unfinished ones will absorb the oil splatter from cooking
Exactly my thought. Tomato sauce stains….
I was looking for this comment. Being able to wipe down/disinfect splashes and spills in the kitchen is better long term.
The rustic tile could easily be sealed with a simple stone sealer, so could be cleaned easily too. I have a real limestone sink & I seal it & it's fine.
I definitely think the dark tile is the way to go! The shiny should be easier to clean, the mood is so right, and personally I think the modernity will play well in contrast without being too modern. Also, I feel like almost every kitchen has light tile backsplashes, the dark tile would make for a bold and daring, unique and beautiful moody kitchen fit for your unique blend of tastes!!
Couldn't have said it better myself. Also, the shiny dark tile will contrast the shiny white oven perfectly!
I 100% agree! The lighter stone doesn’t look like it has the same kind of sealer that the dark does and would absorb grease and odours
I love the darker tile and think it looks so cohesive with all the other elements and suits the wood tone so perfectly. I feel like you should compare them to something already painted pashmina to see which you like better.
I love the dark moody tile! I think it would look awesome if you laid it in a herringbone pattern! I think the more rustic tile has too much color variation and it might look too busy in comparison to everything else in the kitchen! Either way whatever you do, it’ll look amazing! Can’t wait to see what you come up with 🥰
Hands down Option #2 it just vibes with the cottage. You can always add a moody painting over the stove on the range hood. 😊
Definitely option 2, I love the natural texture.
The textured tile 1000% but honestly you have such an amazing eye for design that you will make either look so beautiful in the end 😊
Do the lighter textured tiles!!!!!
My mom got something very similar to the grey shiny option installed in her kitchen last year and she hates how dark it is and I agree. It really brings the vibe down in the kitchen. I think your home is beautiful and love what you are doing with it! Can’t wait to see what you have planned next. Happy picking the best option❤
I really love the moody dark tile. Yes it’s shiny, but it will reflect light with the glossy finish and will add so much depth to your kitchen. Also it’ll be easier to clean! And on a stove/range back splash that is a HUGE PLUS!
I love the more rustic tiles, they fit so well with the house. They let the box windows shine and pop but also add texture and also don't take away from the soapstone. But it is best to wait till you see most the cabinets painted and that way you'll have a better picture of what they'll look like
Yes! The dark will definitely take away from the windows and pretty stove! The light will melt into the rest of the house, and is more timeless! I think if she wants moody she can add that with decor pieces instead of something so permanent that she might get sick of
Agree. Absolutely. 👌🏼
RUclips hasn’t shown me any of your videos in the last two years! I’m so happy to see you again. It’s like reuniting with an old friend! ❤️ I promise I won’t let RUclips hide you from me again. You are a ray of sunshine in this world!
I love option #2. The variation of the coloring of the rustic tiles, in my opinion, adds moodiness too.
I love the lighter, organic tile! I wonder if you can sort through the colour variations in those tiles to make the backsplash more of the darker ones and fewer of the lighter? That might help add a bit more of the moodiness you’re looking for. But I love the texture it adds and seems to really suit the house.
That’s exactly what I was thinking!
@@Tambisme me too!
Definitely like the lighter organic ones more because your boxed windows would stand out way more!
Exactly! That beautiful trim around the windows needs to stand out!
I really like the shape, colour and finish with the dark tile! I think they're a beautiful compliment to the other finished components of the kitchen. Id love to see it when the cabinets are painted too just to really pull it together!
I second this! Also; as a backsplash I can imagine a smoother tile will be easier to keep clean and stay nice for longer!
I just love the matte textured tile and I love how it has more variation of color than the dark tile!
The dark shiny tile looks great and it will be much easier to clean!!
I think you should do the neutral more textured tile! It’s more timeless, and neutral so it can morph into different design aesthetics that you might like. The dark and moody tile is trendy right now, but you might get sick of it and it’ll be hard to remove
I love the lighter organic tile! It’s got much more variation in texture and in shade.
As many said, I'd finish painting some cabinets and then decide about the tiles. Also, I know you like moody but... You like it now! Would you like painted tiles if one day you don't like them dark anymore? It's easier to get tired of dark rooms. Also, I think the colour variation in the other tiles give them lots of character and you've dark ones too. Good luck!! 😊
I like the dark shiny tiles. The fact you don't have anything else with that finish I think adds more texture because everything else will have the other finishes you normally go for. Plus I like the contrast.
The dark tile is sooo pretty. It also pulls in more cohesiveness from the counters and the hallway too (the dark grey color you painted it). I think the shiny tile will be easier to clean. But the rustic does match the theme of the house really, really well :)
I also love both but leaning towards the dark tile because of possible cleaning problems with the textured one. Since it’s also lighter, oil, humidity and heat might cause a permanent discoloration/stain on those textured tile, too.
I think the shineyness will add texture too. If that makes sense.
Agree
It will be so easy to clean too
@@joshuaandjakvillangca8466 Agree and it would also match the darkness of the island!
I like the lighter textured tile option. I think the variation of coloring is going to lend a moodiness that you're looking for. I would also do a slightly dark grout than what is usually done in kitchens.
Both tiles are great options, but I would personally choose the dark one for a moodier vibe. Loving the cabinet fronts!
I think the shiny tiles will just make it easier on you to clean without needing to seal the tiles like the organic versions might need to not show stains. I can’t wait to see what you decide for the tiles.
I would wait till you paint the cabinets to choose the tile, my gut is saying the lighter more organic tile will add contrast and texture to the soapstone and will make it pop more! If the soapstone pops more maybe it will be moodier :)
Yay! I’m so HAPPY you are keeping that absolutely gorgeous range! It’s so classic and beautiful!
I love the lighter tile! There are so many other ways to add moodyness and texture to the space. Can't wait to see what you do with it!
I’m in LOVE with the moody dark tile. The shine gives an additional texture that isn’t overwhelming and it’s in such a small area that it wouldn’t be overwhelmingly glam. It would also draw the richness of the black island up which would help draw your eye up. I feel like if you went with the lighter color, it wouldn’t be Macenna.
Good points, Mary!!
Agree 100%!!!
Option 2 for the tiles ... Very pretty and you can prioritize the darker ones to add to the mood
I like the darker tiles. The shiny texture will make it easier to clean
I love all your projects. I think the lighter, more textured tile matches your kitchen.
I think the matte, rustic tiles fit the 'mood' of your kitchen. Personally, I would wait to decide until all of the cabinets are finished. 😍
I love the natural tile! More versatile in the future. Also I think if you used a cushion on the stools you would get some of the height you need, plus it would be more comfortable 😊
Obviously I love vintage casters on the stools. You can always look for locking ones too, so you have the option to roll or not to, at least you’d still have a vintage look and the added height❤
Definitely the lighter, more organic tile! I think the greenish moody tile could potentially make the Pashmina color on your cabinets appear way more green and less warm!
Light and textur 👍🏼
The lighter tile is the go! That texture brings so much age & it's gorgeous. You have the depth of your darker island as the contrasting focal point i think it will become too competitive adding another darker shade.
100% the 2nd tile choice- the lighter organic look, it would look so gorgeous in your home!
I loooooove the dark and moody ones. I think you have so much light going on in there, you need that additional dark accent to tie in the moodiness you have with the entry way! The soapstone and the window boxes give you some but that dark tile will just tie it all in, I think!! Everything is so so so beautiful 😭
I think even thought the dark tile doesn’t add texture, they do add depth. And depth of color, a special depth, is really great when you have so many light elements (the glass pendants, the marble, the hood, the cabinets). I think they’re just so so beautiful
Option 2. It’s still a little moody AND it really makes the beautiful window trim stand out. Those windows are really the focal point. You did a great job on them.
Dark for sure! Such good contrast to the stove and rest of the space…and the shiny finish will make it sooo much easier to clean.
I think the more visually textured one SCREAMS cottage whereas the grey one is definitely more modern. My vote is the visually textured one.
Option 2, option 2! The clear tile gives a beautifull vibe!
I really think the lighter organic tile will look so cohesive with everything else.
I’m worried that the casters will split the legs of the stools 😅
My vote is for the dark tile. Maybe look for a less glossy version. Either choice would look lovely.
I think the more raw and organic option is the way to go. Although it might not be as moody, you have plenty of opportunity to add in the mood with the decor in the space. Then it gives you the option to switch up the vibe later! Organic is more timeless, universal, and adaptable. It also just feels like it belongs in the home. ♥️
Speaking about the tiles - option #2 is definitely fits perfectly. I thought about this watching your video with your mom discussing the subject and I totally agree with her
Definitely choose the tiles after the doors are painted and up… I’m sure your final choice will jump out at you xxx
Definitely go with the easier to clean tile for a backsplash! I love the dark tile and find it just as timeless and to have texture (through light reflection) AND the gloss is easier cleanup.
Oh girl, 100% the more organic looking tile. It will add so much interest, texture and character to the kitchen. And the organic texture of the tile above the range will be beautiful!! The brown shiny tile I feel like is just not right for the space, especially with the brown stain of the window frames. I can't wait to see what you pick!
# 2 looks like it is warm and neutral. Great job folk's!
I like the lighter tile option more, but like I saw earlier I think finishing the cabinets would help you make a decision. Seeing all of the elements together and visualizing the oven will definitely help!!
I love the lighter backslash, no casters on the stools
Love the light textured organic tile! But the dark is also very pretty :)
Definitely the lighter organic with texture. It fits the house so well.
I would definitely go for option 2. Remember, the oven is also supposed to be a focal point and you need a tile that will complement it. just a pity you can't move the oven into place and see with the tiles you have, but I love the organic one. Love your videos and vlogs, keep up the inspiration.❤
I really like the lighter, more organic one. I think it compliments everything in the space so well
I love the more organic textured tile for the backsplash, I feel like you can add moodiness in with artwork and decor but that texture would be harder to add with decor alone.
I vote for the dark, moody tiles! Your home is very light and airy and open and the darker tiles might make the kitchen feel like an actual room/specific space. Plus agree that it would be much easier to clean.
I vote the lighter textured tile!! So beautiful ❤
Love your videos so much! I say second tile (more rustic & textural) all the way!!
Once your cabinet fronts are up and the range is in, that tile will compliment all the elements while still bringing that visual interest. Sure, its not as straight up moody but after seeing the variations in the two samples you have, imagining it all tiled with its different variations with an overgrouted look would bring that moodiness in a subtle but more organic way. It’ll compliment the plaster in the hood too. It just goes with the style of the home more, it’s organic, interesting in texture that brings you in and warm.
The glossy tile is moody right off the bat but imagining big picture all tiled up, I feel the gloss will compete with all the things, and be a little too modern.
I think the dark and moody one is nice. It looks like it will be easier to wipe down and maintain, also.
I vote for the darker backsplash, mainly because of ease of cleaning. Backsplashes are a great way to add visual interest and texture, but don't forget the primary reason is to keep your walls clean. The shiny finish makes it a breeze to clean.
The lighter tiles fit your aesthetic much more than the dark shiny tile (that said, if the dark tile were honed that would be the best pick) Edit: As for the casters, I would get silicone wheel casters because it will not beat up your beautiful floors
Painting the cabinets and then making a decision is a good idea. I personally love the stone/organic tile because it gives a cottage look that goes really well with the house. It would have variation and texture that would make it more lived in? I think it would look very pretty
I'm all for the organic tile, it feels so much more fitting.
Definitely the dark and moody. The shine will make it much easier to clean.
Option #2 for tiles!!! 🤩
I love the more rustic tile! especially because you have warmth with the window frames, and I think the darker tones in some of the tiles will still add some moody-ness (vs. more consistent lightness). Plus rustic is a mood, right? 😂
This ^ completely
Light rustic tile! Dark tile takes SO much away from your amazing windows!!!
Definitely the darker shiny tile. It's easier to wipe clean if cooking makes a mess. And it's also prettier in this context.
i love the dark tile!! and i assume it will be easier to clean, specially above the range with all the cooking, things get very greasy. with the white tile, i think the grease will stick and i cannot imagine the hassle of cleaning tomato sauce off it. though it’s a beautiful tile. idk, something to think about :)
Tile option I choose is #2 - rustic look - matches the aesthetic of the cottage more. You can add moodiness with art and other decor.
Dark and moody (and shiny - the light will interact with them and create its own kind of texture - also contrasts with the matte tones) 😍
The lighter one for sure, more timeless. The dark feels like it will get more dark/depressing than cozy in the long run--especially with the dark island
I still LOVE the more rustic tiles!! 100% my fave and I think they are gorg in that kitchen- add a super sexy grout to bring in that mood that you love so much!!
If you DO go with dark, I think it’ll look great with a lighter grout, to help bring in the other tones- it looked really good when you held them up and there was the gap in between where the light paint came through.
Either tile is gorgeous. I vote rustic!
Personally, I love the organic tile which I think compliments every other element of the kitchen! I think the darker tile would draw your eye to it, of course, but could almost take over the space, neglecting the other beautiful more organic elements like the soapstone, cabinets, and other pretty pieces you will put in the space. I think you can absolutely bring in the mood you're looking for through artwork, pottery, and other pieces as you decorate the kitchen, while still having that cohesive organic look through that lighter, more textured tile!
Dark tile for sure. Wheels on stools sounds dangerous to me. Love your channel. I’m retired and handicapped so I won’t ever attempt any building or remodeling, however I am addicted to watching your videos. I admire your skills and determination. Your shopping day with your mom reminds me of all the fun my mom and I had. Miss her so much. Thanks for sharing your life and projects. ❤️
The shinier tiles will be easier to clean in the kitchen - those are my vote!
Rustic lighter tiles get my vote 🙋🏼 Just a beautiful 'mirror' to the fireplace and lets the island, stone tops & windows shine brighter..
What I found useful when building the drawers is: to attach drawer side pieces to the slides that are also attached to the cabinets and then measure the exact distance you need to cut front and back of the drawer. Since you have several drawers per cabinet you can do it once per cabinet :)
Dark!!!! The contrast will be sublime with he stove being white and it will really tie in the black from the island
I like the natural stone look, because I think that the texture adds in some classic touch to the house that is wonderful!
I much prefer the dark tiles. They’ll be easier to clean and they’re very unusual! I fell like I see the natural light stone tiles a lot more.
I think the dark backsplash will bring that moody look you love and won’t take away from your other beautiful features (wood trim, counters, range, etc). The more rustic tile has varying colours from one tile to the next that will make the backsplash look very busy and almost randomly checkerboard-ish as the contrast of each tile is so different from one another whereas the dark tile is more cohesive and not too varied. I think it will look 1000x better with the dark choice.
Def choice 2! The natural stone is so much more cottage. The shiny dark grey would combat the statement piece of the dark island.
Definitely go for the lighter matt finish tile, it'll look soooo much better. I feel that the darker shiny tile will take away from your dark windows so much.
Also the casters would be good 😍 but get locking casters so you can stop them rolling! x
I agree! The dark tile will make that whole center section too dark with the windows. The lighter tile will showcase the window boxes and make them the focal point of that wall.
Hi from Arizona 🌵
My vote 🗳️ is the lighter tiles… it’s a more organic look! Happy tiling!
I love the dark moody ❤ I think it would draw your eye to the back of the kitchen.
I love the organic light tile. Beautiful kitchen Macenna 😊
I love the lighter tile. I think the dark takes away from your gorgeous windows.
