Which Kitchen Backsplash?
A collection of Crossville options (and ideas!) for your kitchen backsplash.
The most popular and practical material for a backsplash is… you guessed it: tile. A tile backsplash protects your kitchen walls from splashes that result in stains and mold, as well as greasy food splatters that come from cooking over a hot stove. While it’s easy to grasp the reason to have a backsplash, it’s much more difficult to pick a backsplash.
With the endless possibilities and products in today’s market, it can be a challenge to choose a backsplash for your space. Tiles range in all shapes, sizes, colors, materials, and patterns. While some homeowners lean towards a traditional and classic white subway tiles, others may be more drawn towards colorful mosaics that add a fresh layer of color and light to their space.
If you’re currently on the hunt for a new backsplash (or, if you’re like some of us and just want to browse the eye candy for future renovation ideas!), we’re here to help you. Here are some of our backsplash-worthy collections to spark your imagination.
