Kitchen tile dilemma

[northender]

We are now near the end of what seems like a very long building project. I have, however, what I hope will be my last major dilemma relating to the new kitchen and I could do with some advice. It will be a galley style kitchen with sink and hob on opposite sides. I don't really want to tile all round (dh does) but have found some lovely (for lovely read pricey) glass splashbacks. I would do vinyl emulsion all over and just have the 2 splashbacks.

Opinions please.

Make sure you get some e cloths in at the same time. Those glass splashbacks show up every bit of muck.

Booootiful though.

Agree with rambleon about dirt aspect - you do have to be an obsessional very keen cleaner - although price may not be that much different once you take into account larger quantity of tiles needed and paying someone (presumably) to put them up.
