25 Wooden Kitchen Backsplashes That Stand Out

wooden kitchen backsplashes that stand out cover

Tiles are the most popular idea to create a backsplash in the kitchen but what if you want something different? If tiles, stone and stuff like that aren’t for you, you can look for something different, for example, for wood.

A wooden kitchen backsplash can be made of real wood – weathered, reclaimed, whitewashed, painted, or plywood of various kinds or even wood-looking tiles. Wood and plywood aren’t practical in the kitchens, I bet you know that. A wooden or plywood kitchen backsplash won’t be a functional solution as it’s not very easy to install, it can be easily damaged with moisture or some other substances, develop mildew and so on. If it bothers you, we strongly recommend to cover such a backsplash with a special finish or even attach some sheer glass or acryl in front of it to keep it safe and clean. Wood-looking tiles are a nice solution that is practical and more durable, there won’t be many issues with them.
