{Just dreaming} about painted glass...

While I was trolling the inter-webs looking for Casa Simpson kitchen inspiration, I came across these gorgeous painted glass backsplashes.

I propose that, in your next house...in your next kitchen...and/or when you are gazillionaires and budget is no option...

(and yes; everywhere I just typed "your" and "you", in my dream world, I am replacing with "our" and "we"...)

When any of the above apply, let's do THIS:

 











Now I haven't spoken to anyone who actually does this type of installation so I can't swear that it's super expensive.  From what I've read online though, it looks to be a pricey alternative.

Am I crazy or is it pure gorgeousness???  Even in white!  Can you imagine a pale pale dove grey??  I'm dying just thinking about it.

If this was a project for me personally, I would totally try making this a DIY project.  And trust me, I've scoured the internet and bookmarked a few pages of people who have done it "successfully." I can't risk screwing up your walls though.  And the circular vent above your range is an additional challenge.  Of course, I'm sure the glass could be cut and properly installed by a professional in 2 seconds but...sadly, not by me.

IF you are at all interested in this option, I could make some calls and get some quotes.  Truly though, this is just a lovely fantasy, and I betcha some simple, shiny, white tiles will look absolutely stunning too.

Something to think about for the future maybe?

P.S. On a side note, I'm just curious if you like the artwork in the 3rd image down (the four paintings on the wall).  Thoughts?
