Discuss We have grout! on IKEAFANS.com. We're Personalizing the IKEA Experience. We have grout! - Choosing a backsplash is like taking a ride in a Dr. Seuss-like Backsplooziesplat! All who enter here are sure to leave with more ideas than thought possible..
Sticking slipperly glass tile to our walls was so hard and frustrating that we totally pooped out on finishing the job last spring. Yesterday we finally grouted! And guess what? Grouting is MUCH easier than mounting--yay! Now it's pretty frustrating that we have to wait a week or so before we can seal this thing, but it's exciting to see a change in our kitchen after all this time. The grout color is "straw" and we expect it may lighten a bit over time. It really brings out the gold tiles.
In the attached picture you can see some lines on the wall: those are related to the shallow "floating" shelves we'll be installing above the tile line. Can hardly wait to get all of the oil, vinegar, spices, etc., off the counters! It will never look like this picture (there's a dish drainer next to the sink in real life), but it will be a lot closer!
Beautiful! LOVE the colors! You have excellent taste, my dear. Good work!

It looks just perfect! I agree- great colors!! Congrats! Who knows when we'll put our backsplash in...even with a more economical 10 sqft, I can't find anything that grabs me...
