What is the countertop? Cambria Quartz has a color match with BM paints. Maybe other companies do also.

If your doing a gray backsplash, I would pick the tan for the walls to tie in the countertops!

Now that I look again, the first picture the countertops look gray and the other 2 pictures, they look tan.

Can you confirm that the cabinets and countertops are grey?

Thanks! The counter top is Bianco Antico granite, this slab has a lot of taupe and grays. I was thinking about a light blue, just wasn't sure, but I really like your suggestion. Thanks!

Also, what thoughts on the subway tile - traditional lay or herringbone?

I would hesitate to introduce another color. You have black, white, gray, brown, tan...... I would try to eliminate some of the colors. Is the valance brown? If so, change it to one of the other colors. Are the pendants amber? I would get white ones to match the light over the sink?

I would lay the back splash traditionally instead of a herringbone pattern since your areas are small and chopped up already, so it doesn't look too busy.

The drapes/valance are not staying. They are just going a light/linen look to keep it soft. Also, the pendants are new and smoked glass, but this picture does not show that at all. The other over the sink is going and will be a recessed light along with 4 more we are adding. Not sure if that helps at all...

Thanks, we were thinking traditional but couldn't decide!

One more question. We picked matte subway, just love the softness of it. But now I am rethinking with the glossy granite, should I go glossy?! We are doing an accent above the range in penny role that will have some shine. The tile shop recommended matte, but then the designer I worked with says glossy!!
