Add Pop to Your Kitchen Backsplash to Reflect Your Personality

You spend a lot of time in your kitchen.  Shouldn’t it reflect some of your character?

Have you considered adding pop to your kitchen backsplash by using something unusual?  If you want to venture just a little into something different, consider the vast array of tiles available. Tile mosaics are available in much more than square or subway tiles.  From cubes to circles, fans to ovoids, tiles aren’t just tiles anymore.  But what if you’re a little more adventurous?

If you have light cabinets, you might consider wood for your backsplash!  Horizontal planks pull a modern kitchen back to the outdoors, and you won’t believe how beautiful it looks against those stainless steel appliances.

An option with more versatility is wallpaper.  Infinitely customizable to fit your kitchen, wallpaper is available that is more sturdy and made to take the punishment it will see in a kitchen environment.

For a super edgy look, metal wins hands down.

There are so many options for metal backsplashes, you may have a hard time deciding!  You can go with a corrugated metal, which looks surprisingly beautiful in a country setting, or you can try a steel penny tile that will stun everyone with its modern twist.  Meantime, a tin tile backsplash adds character to a retro kitchen in a new way.

Want to go really different?  How about a blackboard backsplash (say that 5 times fast!) so you can have a new look whenever you want, or just make notes?  Or go artsy and put in a mosaic using whatever makes you happy in the kitchen from plates to tiles to glass.  Or you can try a mosaic inspired by a particular artist like Klimt, Monet, or Van Gogh (think Starry Night).

Not ready to go that permanent in your change?

You can still give your kitchen a lift by painting the backsplash, then hanging art in the space you have.  That way, when your mood changes, so can your kitchen!
