You could consider a light glass tile for the backsplash. I would also suggest replacing the valance with a flat panel valance or Roman shade, and removing all items on top of the cabinets for a more updated look.

That brick is gorgeous! Since you have so many patterns going on in your kitchen, I suggest not having a back splash. There is nothing wrong with mixing patterns and colors, but sometimes too much can make your room look choppy and not flow well. You don't want to take away from your beautiful counter tops and brick. I hope this helps!

First I want to start by commenting on how awesome that brick work is, seriously, I love it. If you want to add in a backsplash I would suggest keeping it very simple - a light cream glass tile in a simple subway pattern would tie everything together without taking away from the other patterns you have going on in the kitchen.

We have a light cream color glass tile that would match the cream in your counters. If that is a route you're interested in taking or you just want a free sample to test out just let us know and we can get one sent out for you.

Here is that cream glass tile:
