A Dyi Dream Come True: Peel And Stick Backsplashes
June 01, 2019Backsplashes add so much to a room, especially when they harmonize with surrounding cabinets, countertops and décor. Who can beat a beautiful backsplash tile behind a sink or stove to accentuate a kitchen’s character and aesthetic? Many people view backsplashes as labor intensive when it comes to installation, needing the help and handiwork of a professional with an assortment of tools. However, MSI has gone a step further to make your life easier with easy-to-install peel and stick backsplashes that bring a whole new meaning to DIY!
Think decorative mosaics are impossible to install on your own? Well, think again!
Peel and stick backsplashes create a convenience that’s hard to beat, yet many people might have questions about them. Introducing STIK Wall-Tile. This collection consists of authentic natural stone in all different colors and designs at budget-friendly prices that you can explore with our backsplash visualizer. They do not require mortar or grout, which is certainly good news; instead, they have an industrial-grade adhesive, which secures them so they will not slide, move or fall.
Prepping your wall is an important step in the peel and stick process, as you want a clean, smooth and dry surface for optimal hold. Removing outlet covers prior to installation is crucial, as well. Upon removing the protective backing, you simply spray soapy water onto the adhesive, where you’ll have several seconds to adjust it prior to the hold securing. Many people draw lines at the bottom of their wall so they know where their rows will go.
This process is empowering and exciting in its own right, but what about some top tier backsplash designs? Let’s delve into a few to get your decorative juices flowing—hopefully, you’ll find some inspiration and the right peel and stick backsplash that works for you!
