Countertops and Backsplash


Well we’ve had our house for just over two months now, and it’s safe to say that we have spent 98% of our time in the kitchen. Sweating, sanding, painting, drilling, everything EXCEPT cooking.

Jaime Zapata is a granite installer who gets a lot of his tools over at Hallmark Sinks (where I have been working as the marketing department). He gave us a really good estimate to install granite countertops and so we pulled the trigger to get it done.

For those of you living in the metroplex and considering granite tops in your kitchen, we really recommend him.

For the backsplash, Yessidey wanted to go with glass tile and I wanted to try to do it myself. When I finally got it all done, I think that we were both pleased with our decisions.

Make sure those edges are straight!
