Darn, the Tile instal has to wait.

We were so excited that the tile installer said that he could squeeze us in and get the backsplash tile installed before Christmas. He showed up Saturday, thinking it would be a straightforward, quick job. Well, this handmade tile is thick and has a fussy glaze on the top and he needed some different equipment to cut it. Unfortunately that equipment is being used on another job and so we have to wait a week or so.

The crackle glaze just chips off so easily- hopefully it will be sturdy enough in the kitchen!

The tile is by Jeffrey Court, a hand made ceramic tile. It is their Irish Ice line, the color Donegal. It was a bit more yellow in the showroom, but I think this slightly taupier color will work just fine!
