I spent yesterday working on the kitchen back splash and hanging the hood with Greg. It brought back old memories of our brief foray into house flipping a few years back. I had a ton of fun working with Greg and working on making messed up houses into something cool, but it just wasn’t the right timing in life I guess.
So anyway, I am trying to decide whether I should leave the back splash just to the bottom of the hood, or if I should tile behind the hood all the way to the ceiling. I kind of like it both ways, but I’m not sure which way would look better.

vs.

Any thoughts?
