You can’t go wrong with either tile. I do recommend not rushing the backsplash. Have all your cabinets finished and your countertop decor out, then decide. ❤

@whitneyhatton3736 2 года назад

Does the dark moody one come in a matte finish? The shine is what is killing me, but as your mom stated it's a personal preference. :) Can't wait to see your final decision.

The dark, moody tile is a VIBE! Love the vertical movement, texture, and finish! That color contrasting the neutral tones👌

@milica1930 2 года назад

My opinion is to go with rustic tiles, because that beautiful wood color of your boxed windows is then going to pop out. I think that if you choose moody tile, that beautiful wood color won't stand out enough... Also, I think that soapstone needs some contrast... You can always add some moody kitchen utensils and decor🧡 But, whatever you choose will be amazing, I'm sure ⭐

@joannal3719 2 года назад

Exactly my thoughts!

@SarahMehmet 2 года назад

I literally just wrote the same thing.

@MicheleWalkerWebb Год назад

ABSOLUTELY! Add the moody accessories. Mixer.

@HarvestLuna 2 года назад

I’m with mom on this one. I think the dark tiles are definitely a statement, but I think they might take over the kitchen…instead of complement and be cohesive. This is a good moment to photoshop and then decide. Can’t wait to find out what you choose!!

@savannahshaw3201 2 года назад

@alyenriquez_ 2 года назад

At first I thought the darker tile for that moody, modern but still depths of character kinda look, but, when your mom was explaining it just made sense! The more “rustic” tile looks more organic and fits the look of character you’re going for in your home. It’s like that plaster texture from the hood and adds more depth that way. Its also more timeless and looks more lush than that glossy dark tile. The rustic one compliments the island more instead if competing with it. Let the island, windows, pop out and be a statement on its own. It’ll make that italian stove look like it never left italy! Haha. Love your vlogs so much

@Scrumptiouscakesbyfairy 2 года назад

@alexandrakukoljac237 2 года назад

I agree! But like I love moody too like what macenna said. So if only there were some slightly darker tones mixed in with the rustic ones’ tones ya know?!

@pnammons 2 года назад

I also like mom’s choice of the rustic tile. Definitely think you should get your cabinets painted and maybe just Photoshop them both in and see what works!

@annao6872 2 года назад

I love the dark tile. The moment you picked it up in the store I thought to myself, “that’s perfect”. It provides moodiness, contrast to the oven and range hood, while complimenting the grey tones in the marble. Also, it ties in the moody vibe from the entryway, imo.

@dawnwesterbeck346 2 года назад

And it's not a very large area to cover it's not going all the way up the walls or anything

@sarahbissessar1265 2 года назад

1000000 % agree!!!

@nomadine85 2 года назад

Same! When she picks diy up in the store I though oohhhhh thissss ooooone

@ashlynoe 2 года назад

I think the dark moody would look so beautiful with the light oven. And be a good contrast between tying in the island and lighter colors. It would make the light colors pop more 💕 Edit: Someone down below said to finish the cabinet doors first and get those up. Then photoshoot the tile in. I think that would be a great idea to see what either could look like!

@xxTipheneAmberxx 2 года назад

I personally like the dark polished tiles more than the rustic, but my first choice are the little cream squares! They'll all look stunning, but I think you have so many beautiful focal points in the kitchen like those boxed windows, the range hood and the ceilling-heigh cabinetry that maybe it's best to go with something more discreet and simple, and let the art and styling shine! Anyway, it will look fabulous so excited to see!!

@ksl2634 2 года назад

The dark tile is definitely a mood! It blends the countertops up. But I feel it shadows the detail of the box window wood detailing. The cream/grey tiles pull more of the island, similar to the wall color, keeps the space open/bright, and adds some of the same texture as the plaster from the range hood. 100% what your mom said... it's really a personal choice for you. Both are great! Don't rush the tiling process though. You have time 😊

@Zmish-p9n 2 года назад

I love love love the dark tile with the hood of the oven staying light! It works so well with everything you’ve already picked and painted! Love these videos and how involved you let us viewers be :) it’s all turning out so beautifully!!!

@donnatorres7145 2 года назад

Love the dark one! It looks perfect with everything especially that GORGEOUS stove. Have a blessed evening 🙏💙❤🐕

@toniclem9105 2 года назад

I like the lighter one! I usually like moody, but I think that it would be really dark on that one wall and then the rest of your kitchen would be really bright and sunny. Plus, the rustic feels sort of cottage-like to me. They would both be nice. At first I thought the dark but then your mom swayed me lol

@nigarharoon6570 2 года назад

I personally like the darker tile better because it's a contrast to all the lighter colors and goes really well with the darker countertop also. I can't wait to see the whole kitchen put together no matter what you choose!

@SusieDickson 2 года назад

Yes I think it would be such a pretty contrast over the oven especially!

@charislarson9980 2 года назад

I love your mom’s idea to put up a temporary board for each tile design. Wait until the all cabinets are done and live with each for a while. Look at it from a distance to get the whole composition of the kitchen.

@kyrstyn9710 2 года назад

I love moms pick, and it will add character and charm to the cottage. I feel like the darker tile is beautiful, but it brings more purple than it does brown. The other tile is going to be a visual interest and cause peoples attention to be driven to that amazing vent hood you built.

@nicolla7532 2 года назад

The dark tail is just BEAUTIFUL, and I think it goes with everything in the kitchen

@Aliciapwpw 2 года назад

@taylortischler 2 года назад

I LOVE the dark tile, all vertical in a straight line with a neutral grout. Yes. (Also textured backsplash is a pain to clean) also I can’t freaking wait for the fireplace episodes

@MariannaeMariannae 2 года назад

I'm also leaning towards the more rustic version, but I think it makes sense to wait with the decision until the cabinett doors are up. Also: Could your mum tell us please how she is doing her hair? So pretty

@kaitlin5264 2 года назад

I absolutely LOVE the rustic tiles! They are such a lovely texture and bring in some more color without blending in with the soapstone countertops or being too busy. I think the rustic tiles will add more character to the plain wall space as opposed to a more shiny ceramic tile. Either way! I’m sure you will make the best decision for what YOU want-which is most important❣️❣️

@Pnic831 2 года назад

I agree with your mom about the natural looking tile! It’ll bring in some beautiful texture and cottage vibes. The dark tiles you’re leaning toward are a close second though for sure.

@pizzakrydder2515 2 года назад

I would go with your mom's pick, I am a sucker for rustic though - but those tiles speak very well with your statement windows. The contrasting color brings the windows the attention they deserve and at the same time both the windows and the tiles have that organic feel. The dark grey tiles would make the windows less noticable.

@sindyp626 2 года назад

I can see the pashmina and darker moody tile going so well together. Also vertically it will look good with the island when looking at it from the living room. It's looking super beautiful! Can't wait to see more!

@m.p.a.6267 2 года назад

I actually really like the square shape! Since you have such tall ceilings it will give a cozier, more cottage like look. I can’t decide between light and dark though, both look great in my mind but definitely wait for the cabinet doors.

@katerssss88 2 года назад

I think your mom is right with this. The dark is moody and pretty, but it think the more stone like backsplash will add more life and texture to the kitchen! I’m absolutely in love with what you’ve done so far!!! ❤

@Quaquelly 2 года назад

That dark tiles looks great! But i feel like the dark will compete with the rest of the kitchen and takes away from the gorgeous color or the windows... i love the one your mom agrees with ❤

@jackihayden6642 2 года назад

I love the one the your mum is recommending. I think the glossy dark one will be too hard, and too dark with the dark front counter. I also think it will take away from the window frames which are stunning. The slightly more rustic and lighter ones will still help the features be features. You don't want too many "features"

@pl22exh 2 года назад

I personally prefer the creamy tile. I think that the dark tiles make it a bit difficult to see the trim on your box windows. They are truly a showstopper. The creamy tile would really help show them off.

@chloewashington82 2 года назад

I agree 🙈 I think the creamy square tiles or long rectangular tile gives you the polished look of the dark tile but the lighter color of the rustic tile. Like your mom said once you add all of your decor, I think it will look beautiful! You have so many amazing focal points already happening in the kitchen, like the island and the oven so I think it’s ok to go more subtle with the tile! Can’t wait to see how it comes together 🥰

@leamariechristiansen346 2 года назад

The rustic tile is what I imagined would go there from the beginning, even though I'm also always attracted to moody, I think in this case the rustic tiles fits the kitchen better. 🙏🏼 and also, you can get to a point in your life where you're just over the moody and dark, and wish you had gone for more lighter options in the "fixed" materials that are hard to change.

@Ktealove Год назад

Yes! I had those same thoughts!

@wilma6102 2 года назад

I love the square Dutch tiles. If you are going for a more European look, than this is the perfect choice for your kitchen. You see these tiles a lot in Dutch homes from the same period as your home.

@jjfrank 2 года назад

I personally agree with your mom that I think the rustic tile is a little more in keeping with the comfort cottage feel. It's definitely a lot more rustic. The grey isn't a bad choice either, it's just a lot more contemporary. You had mentioned wanting to keep the kitchen light and airy, I think the dark backsplash coupled with your black island and soapstone countertops will be VERY heavy, especially from the living room.

@meiran5704 2 года назад

I am 100% into the dark moody tile. I think its depth is MAGNIFICENT and that the polished tile will be easier to clean/dust/wash (in my opinion). Both tiles match well! I loved your mom's suggestion to make a velcro board and live with it for a bit before choosing :)

@heathermoore4807 2 года назад

@ellaesanbock5922 2 года назад

@emmawinn6129 Год назад

Moody entrance!! I think the moody tile is PERFECT for you and your aesthetic. The contrast is perfect for the rest of your material palette. It would also tie in so well with the entryway

@sparklepea 2 года назад

Here’s my two cents the rustic tile blends both with the treatment you did on range hood and the colour of the island. The dark provides a backdrop to highlight these features but I do think you need to get those painted doors on so you can see the whole look before deciding because along with the windows you’re in danger of creating too many heroes. Good luck! Btw you’re my favourite RU-vidr and I’m so grateful you post so often 😊

@MillaLoft 2 года назад

I love the moody tile. I also imagine the rustic tile kinda over grouted like the stone work on the outside of the house. I can’t wait to see which one you end up going with.

@Ecutt 2 года назад

I LOVE the dark moody tile. It goes with everything and works to tie in the lighter more airy stove and range with the black island so it’s not so contrasting (B&W) from the 2010s. It’s SO unique and rich!

@AdrianaColera 2 года назад

Honestly LOVE the dark grey/black tiles. They not only tie in the soapstone, but also the painted wood on the island. Definitely gives a break from the light grey of the pashmina.

@jimmynader 2 года назад

Definitely the dark grey tiles, tiled vertically. They're organic, lovely shine and so cottagy..the marble ones are so polished and "new modern" vibe.

@milliesmith5972 2 года назад

I personally prefer the dark tile over the rustic one! also I have a suggestion for the cabinet doors after watching the main channel video as well - I really think that you should route a profile on all the door and drawers fronts right around the outside edge, to give that a bit of detail rather than just the square plywood. this will definitely make the doors look really really high end! would also help the drawer fronts without the shaker detail, to not be completely flat flat. hope you see this! love as always Xx

@Edu_Kate 2 года назад

Yes! When I saw MaCenna glue the decorative piece I could hear Norm from This Old House shouting, "NO!" The center panel needs to be free to expand and contract. Your idea allows for that. Probably have to route that detail before assembling the rails and styles.

@danicadickison 2 года назад

I love the lightest rustic tile! I think it echoes the handmade and European home influences you liked on your trip and opens you up to add mood in more areas in paint and accessories! If you go with mood do something darker and with a color/saturation accent to it so it looks less gray and more colorful moody. If you do the moody tile though you'd have to incorporate that color accent in other places in the kitchen. With the current design you have it feels like the lightest rustic tile is the most cohesive and avoiding gray would be good.

@kristendailey5167 2 года назад

Yesss! Do the moody dark tiles so complimentary to everything in the kitchen and I agree then the hood range has something extra but nothing crazy to still be the same as the fire place across the way! And it makes it cozy and moody too! My fav as well

@celia_malevy 2 года назад

Your mom is literally having the same conversation I was having in my head. I personally was leaning with the white tiles, but as soon as you said that it “simply looks like a backsplash”…? I understood and agreed with you. I love how in the end, your mom’s support is beautiful, respectful, and encouraging! Thank you for sharing these moments with us! I honestly am so excited to see as you progress in making this your home! 💕

@alxndra_alta 2 года назад

@joannajowsey 2 года назад

Absolutely the dark tile!! As soon as you picked it up I thought “wow that’s the one”. It pulls the colours from the island countertop and it’s a completely different finish to what’s on everything else - it would carry the dark colour from the soapstone upwards, helping to break up the the dark on bottom and light on top contrast you mentioned recently too!! Absolutely love your vids, I haven’t missed a single one since you first bought the cottage!! 🥹😍🙌

@acgoh2146 2 года назад

My vote is for the dark tile. At first glance I never would have chosen something like that, but I think it’s makes the style lean a little more Victorian moody than country cottage which is my vibe. Both tile options are great though! I know you’ll style it well either way!

Louie is so cute, love it. The dark tiles are more beautiful by them self, but I would go with the more rustic (mom’s choice), they would go way better with kitchen style and they would let your island, stove and window frames be the point of interest instead of all competing with each other. As usual your video is so awesome. 😊

@melissahenderson6089 2 года назад

@SammLawlor 2 года назад

Dark! Love the moodiness and it gives you more options for decorating/layering

@matthewshane9791 2 года назад

I personally think the more “rustic” tile (your mom’s choice) is a better blend for the overall aesthetic you’re trying to achieve. It works well with all the colors on the cabinets, walls, countertops, etc while not being too visually jarring. It also has a little more variation and a little less of a color block, making it a good mesh of the old and new elements you’re bringing in. I’m sure whatever choice you make, you’ll love!

@vickiwills9950 2 года назад

I agree also with the "rustic"! I feel an Old World aesthetic about them and I know you were drawn to the warn heavily textured walls in some of the pictures you've saved for your memory board...I think the glossy tiles have a more modern look!😊 Good Luck!❤️

@robinhoward4204 2 года назад

I was thinking that 100 percent, and I would definitely choose it myself. I agree about the overall effect - but like her mum says, it's a personal choice. Very wise woman her mum. Also, in previous videos Macenna was drawn to a more organic paving tile for the walkway to the porch.

@Lisa6812 2 года назад

Well said! I agree, it’s actually very beautiful and compliments the kitchen very well. And the style. I find the darker tile more modern.

@lisadevries992 2 года назад

For your kitchen tile, I would also take into account practical aspects such as is it easy to clean? The light option that your mom liked seemed to have texture although its hard to see on camera, but if true, I imagine it would stain more easily than the polished one. Just something to consider, good luck with the decision!

@stephypoo5683 2 года назад

I personally like the rustic tile your mom is liking more as well, especially if you're just doing it in that smaller area because it goes nicely with the windows and cabinets - I think the gray and black tiles would take away from the windows and also clash a bit with the countertops, the countertops and windows are gorgeous and dark tiles (especially dark tiles in a small area) would take away from that. Though too if you really love the darker tiles I think blending them in with the rustic tiles could provide a unique look!

I love the dark tiles as a moody contrast and a nice compliment to the soapstone. Your progress is such a joy to watch! Thank you for sharing this process!
