Try This Out-Of-The-Box Backsplash For A Rustic Country Kitchen Look - Food Republic
An expert explains how this affordable Victorian-era paneling that's easy to install can elevate a backsplash and make your entire kitchen feel more spacious. To elevate the look of your beadboard backsplash, Kuhl suggests, "Add trim or molding around the beadboard to make it feel like a designed paneling feature rather than an afterthought." Adding a trim instantly gives the beadboard a sense of intentionality, transforming it from a basic backsplash into a standout design element.And while beadboard is traditionally made of wood, more affordable options like fiberboard or laminate are widely available.You can play with the style of molding to match your kitchen's aesthetic, such as ornate, layered trims for a touch of Victorian elegance, or keep it minimal and streamlined for a modern, no-fuss look."Another advantage of beadboard is that it's lightweight, very budget-friendly compared to traditional backsplashes, and easy to install," Kuhl says. It's also simple to remove if you decide to update your kitchen later.
