Feedback on lights & backsplash?

Okay, so soon to be installed are natural maple Shaker style cabinets with slightly to moderately marbelled soapstone counters.

It's a moderately small space but I've got a good deal packed in. There's a small (some might say 'micro' island) that's going to have two mini-pendants over it. I'm thinking of going with something white and simple. Then, there's a bar/peninsula over which I'm going to put 3 multi-colored mini pendants.

Then sconce in dining area and some sort of colored glass backsplash. There are very few upper cabinets because the kitchen is a former dining room and filled with windows. Also, for this reason, the backsplash will be quite small (basically between the top of counters to bottom of windowsills which will be 2"-3".

(I can apparently only upload one picture so I chose the backsplash)

My thinking is that the maple & soapstone are neutral colors, hence the desire for some color (via pendant lights over bar/peninsula and backsplash). Could I go with more color with backsplash or should I be going with less overall?

In general, any suggestions?

Just thought I'd toss it out into the virtual universe for feedback.

thanks
