Hi All,

Well - we're down to crunch time, after much lurking, and SLOW decision making, my contractor is currently pulling up floor in the next room, while I "work" in my noisy office next door.

That said - struggling with a few last minute decisions (well, lots including countertop...), including the backsplash.

My original plan had been to run the backsplash (9.5" x 23.5" creamy/greyish ceramic tiles) up the full wall behind the range. However, I'm struggling with where it should stop, in line with the left cabinet, or at the edge of the door frame.

Since then I've had the suggestion to just run it full height above the range with a single row of tile above the rest of the countertop, OR to run it across the full wall, but only as high as the bottom of the range.

Wondering about your thoughts? I've included a shot of my accent tile, which is the same size/colour as the plain tile, but a bit more 'interesting'. I'll use the accent tile from the counter to the base of the uppers on all other walls.

In the photo ignore the original hood spec - the KD didn't have the correct placement/size of the actual hood - which I've redrawn in pink. Our cabinets are cream, counters will be dark (either granite or slate), and the range is actually a hunter green colour.

Many thanks for any insight!
