Kitchen Backsplash Update with Mill Creek Carpet & Tile

March 11, 2019

If you have been following along on Instagram, you know that this week we had some work done in our kitchen. Today I am excited to share our kitchen backsplash update with Mill Creek Carpet & Tile in Tulsa. Mill Creek is a family owned business with multiple locations in Tulsa and Oklahoma City, so if you are in the area be sure to check them out!

About the Process

I was so thrilled when Mill Creek reached out to me about an update. Our house is a Spanish style home but the previous owners had put in a very modern glass style backslash. In my opinion, it did not go with the look or feel of our home. I was excited to go to Mill Creek to check out their tile. They have an amazing variety and selection of tile to choose from. I was able to meet with one of their interior designers on staff to talk about the look and feel I wanted. She pulled some options for me, and 30 minutes later I walked out with a tile I was confident we would love!

Installation

Mill Creek ordered and scheduled the tile installation around my schedule making it super easy for me. We don’t have a large area of backsplash, so it was a pretty low inconvenience job for us thankfully. The tile is two different sized shapes with a non-flat/smooth surface. In my opinion it has a Spanish shape and feel. I absolutely love how it turned out! This was our first weekend at home with it, so we got donuts to celebrate. A certain 2 year old was pretty thrilled! How adorable is she in these photos?!

    Wow, your kitchen looks incredible! The new backsplash really brightens the space and matches your style perfectly. Seeing this makes me think about careful planning, like doing a takeoffs house to make sure everything fits and flows well before starting a project.

    I love how the new backsplash completely transforms the kitchen — the choice of tile really brightens the space! It’s inspiring to see small updates make such a big impact.

    Your kitchen transformation is absolutely gorgeous! It actually reminded me of our recent struggle when our fridge died right before the holidays. We were so tempted to just buy a new one, but after some research, we found a fantastic company for refrigerator repair in Houston. We decided to fix it, and I’m so glad we did. It saved us a ton of money and, emotionally, it felt so much better than just adding another large appliance to a landfill. Giving our reliable old fridge a second life was definitely the right call for our wallet and our peace of min

    Yay for doughnuts and yay for a gorgeous new backsplash! I love how it turned out and it definitely sounds like it is more in the same feel as the rest of the house!
