What to do with a marble slab?

As a kid we lived in VT, neighbor had his father living with him and the story goes that the daughter in law did not like the father living with them, so the father just ignored her and played deaf. He was a retired Granite worker for the Quarries in Barre, VT. He was making his on headstone, when he passed his son went to retrieve the headstone from were the old man was working on it. The inscription said here lies the "old Fool" and had all the Old Mans info on it.

Lately one high/low hack has been popping up everywhere we look: using bits and pieces of discarded or leftover marble around the house for a luxe look on a budget. Case in point: When we wrote about this Two-Week, $1,000, 500-Square-Foot Rental Overhaul in Bushwick, Brooklyn, design student Kristina Line revealed that she scoured nearby marble scrap yards for unwanted pieces to create shelving and backsplashes in her DIY apartment; the restauranteurs behind the design-forward Portuguese wine bar Cervo's did the same for the restaurant's statement-making front counter. And when we looked back over the archives for more ideas for using marble odds and ends we found, among many ideas, some expert encouragement from Anthony D'Argenzio of New York City creative agency Zio & Sons: 'Marble can be turned into trim around backsplashes, thresholds, door saddles. It can be cut, so it's more versatile than tile,' he told us in Expert Advice: What to Source from Salvage.

Head to your local marble yard or retailer and see if they'll give you discarded pieces for free or at a discount, or use the odds and ends left over from a remodeling project. Even the smallest, scrappiest pieces can be repurposed. Here are 14 ways of using marble scraps to great effect'from small, simple hacks to architectural ideas.

3. Create an ad-hoc backsplash.

Above: In her Two-Week, $1,000, 500-Square-Foot Rental Overhaul in Bushwick, Brooklyn, design student Kristina Line sourced discarded marble scraps from a nearby stonemason. Among them: a jagged piece repurposed as a sculptural backsplash in the kitchen. 'They don't see the beauty in the broken leftovers, or what in their eyes is trash,' says her partner, Anton Bak.

4. Frame a sink.

Above: Here's an example of a marble-remnant backsplash that has a more finished look. In Fabr Studio's office kitchen, a slab of marble, left over from a kitchen project, serves as oversized backsplash.
