The Silver Metal for Backsplashes

-

I recently viewed my cousin’s remodeled kitchen in L.A. and was struck by the beauty of her recycled aluminum tile backsplash. It’s so clean and works well in the traditional room, adding a touch of modern simplicity.

Liz was a bit tight-lipped about revealing her sources so I went searching and found the same material at Eco Friendly Flooring in Madison, Wisc. The metal mosaics mix really well with sustainable bamboo cabinets and other woods and are available in sizes from 2"x2" up to "12x"12" and in three finishes (polished, matte and sandblasted). At $35 per square foot they’re a good choice for homeowners unsure about how to accent counter tops and walls.

Check out the site and order samples online to see if the finishes work with your decor. The company with a commitment to sustainable flooring and tile ships nationwide.
