Kitchens all need them, and yet often they are an afterthought of the overall design. The classic back splash. The wall area of the kitchen that sits adjacent the stove or cooking area, and sometimes even extends the full length of the wall. These areas of walling serve a practical purpose as well as also offering the potential for decoration and adding your own unique styling to your kitchen.

Backsplash examples range from colored glass through to ceramic tiles of all sizes, shapes and colors and even granite, stone and marble tiles or solid panels. Whatever the style, or design, a beautiful backsplash can add polish and personality to the overall kitchen design.

When looking to enhance your kitchen area through a makeover or a remodelling project, you should pay some attention to your backsplash area, as this can help dress up any old kitchen creating a whole new look and feel giving it a new life from what may have previously been an old and dreary, dated kitchen. We hope that this selection of kitchen backsplashes will provide some creative inspiration for your own kitchen renovation, or at the very least provide some ideas on a simple budget makeover to improve and enhance the overall look.
