Hi,

I'm looking for ideas please. I have a cream aga in my kitchen and french oak kitchen units with a darkish tile on the floor (brown, grey and terracotta shades in it). I have chosen a cream gloss wall tile but behind the aga I would like to make it a bit of a feature and mix this cream tile with another tile. My problem is I haven't really seen anything that I have liked. I could go for some kind of terracotta tile I suppose but am not sure even what type of design I should go for. I'm a complete novice at this so any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks, Ella.

Hi there Ella,

Firstly let me say WELCOME to GardenStew - it's lovely to have you here with us on one of the friendliest forums on the web.

I looked up a few websites for you that may help you choose what tiles you would like to put behind your aga. It's hard to choose just the right tiles without a little help isn't it? If there's nothing on these sites of any use to you then let me know and I'll see what else I can do for you. Very Happy

Hi Ella and welcome to the community.

I used an online tool http://www.colorblender.com/ to pick some colours to match a cream colour. See what you think of these:



Cream is the first colour shown. The rest are complementing colours Wink

I think the terracotta idea is great. I've always liked those kinds of tiles myself. And Gardenstew's first light yellow color would go pretty well too, I think.
