I'm with bostontom. If you're really going to be doing a full reno in a year, save your $$$ and put it all into something that won't be going away in a year.

Not super-cheap, but Homie D's has a stainless steel wall panel: http://www.homedepot.com/Kitchen-Backsplashes/h_d1/N-5yc1vZbcsz/R-100664604/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053

This is indeed a beautiful house. However, I still far prefer the House Tours that demonstrate what us run-of-the-mill non-millionaires can do with creativity, personality, and and a little elbow grease.

Definitely watching Hoarders.

I have several neighbors who were apparently raised by packs of wild dogs. They have "no junk mail" signs on their mailboxes, and then when they get junk mail, they just toss it on the floor in the lobby. They use the front stoop/lawn as an ashtray. As if it's not bad enough that I can't keep my windows open when they're right outside my window sucking on their cancer sticks. Obviously, you smoke outside so as not to nastify your own place - why do you think it's OK to reek up mine? They leave their stinky trash out in the hall all night because it's too smelly to be inside their apartment. They let their non-resident boyfriends park their 16-foot-long pickup trucks in the resident-only parking lot. They can't take three seconds to collapse their large boxes and put them in the recycling bins so they just leave them lying around the parking lot. Actually, I'd welcome packs of wild dogs to my building if they'd replace these inconsiderate bozos.
