As any other room, a good kitchen decoration needs layerings, focus points and perspective. To highlight your kitchen cabinets, add a splash of color, or simply to make a statement, you can use your kitchen walls in many ways. From stickers to decorative kitchen wallpapers, from wood planks to elaborate tiling or glossy paint, there are endless possibilities to choose from, without forgetting to play with accessories. We made a little selection of interesting designs to fire up an inspiration spark in your mind. Enjoy the tour and don’t forget to “pin” what you like!
