Is bead board considered country?
Comments (31)sheesharee - Thanks for the offer but I called Home depot and they have some paintable wallpaper in stock that is puffy, so i can get the idea. Also, Southerns website showed a good photo of the product before painted. igloochic - My kitchen needs to be lightened up, so the stained look would not be for me. I think your idea would work, though. That would be a neat and different project for someone to take on. A study, maybe? :) Thanks lyban! I am bored...that's why! lol No, I just thought it would add a little texture to the space, that's all. All this hype on the paintable beadboard projects sparked my interest. I, so far, have not had to clean the backsplash in my kitchen. I guess I am a neat cooker. Even the mirror stays clean for the most part. The other area doesn't even get food near it unless I am serving a buffet. tinam61 - We don't have any wallpaper either, and I swore I would never have it again! lol However, I don't have the tools or the know-how to cut the wood. The wallpaper seems like an easier project....See MoreBeadboard backsplash questions
Comments (23)Mayflowers - Wow. Good to know. Thank you! I'll look for those photos showing the bb to the ceiling, but I don't think I want to do that. For the island, that's something I've thought about for a long time too. The toe kick area is 4-1/2" and the current base is 3"something. I couldn't find trim that size. I don't know how to finish that area off. " I might even look into framing the sides and backs with the same frame as around your door style to make it look more finished off." I've love to do that, but don't know how I'd get it to match. The easy way, I thought, was add the same bb that will be on the splash. I agree about the corbels and am going to change them to something wood and simple. Maybe something like this. (link) Also would love to change out the lighting in this room and that's going to happen with the next round of things I tackle. Athomeinva - Oh thank you so much for posting those photos. It looks really nice! Since mine will be paneling, I'm not sure what I'll do to finish off the side/edges. Maybe some type of chair moulding. Geez, I really need to get a plan together. So what's the right way to run the bb behind the refrigerator? Mine is in the middle of the cabinet run with cabinets & counter on the other side. Do you run the bb down past the counter and keep going with the trim the whole way across? Stop the bb at the counter and keep going with the trim? Stop the trim on each side leaving no trim in the space behind the fridge? I know we're not really going to see anything back there, but how should it be done? I am removing the microwave and running the bb to the top before the new one comes. Pattycakes - I've used the bb wallpaper in my laundry room on the insides of the cabinets and loved it. I think it would be very hard for me with all the cuts to do a backsplash. Since we're having someone do this, it'll be easy peasy for him. Here is a link that might be useful: possible corbels...See Morebeadboard backsplash - anyone have one?
Comments (17)I love the "country" look of using beadboard as a backsplash, and have been researching it online for a while. I just am not sure which product would be best to use, and if it would be okay to use it behind the stove. My stove is an electric slide-in type- with the control panel on the back. There is only 16 inches between the top of that panel and the bottom of my range hood, so I really think that beadboard would be okay...? My main concern with using wood or mdf beadboard is the shrinking/expanding that I have read about-- causing cracks in the seams where the individual panels meet, but is that *really* an issue indoors, where the temperatures don't have extreme changes... ? One other worry for me is behind the sink, which does get occasional water splashes... I have been looking at the PVC beadboard-- looks like it would be very easy to install, but again, I'm not sure about the contraction/expansion issue.... and I am not sure if it will look too "plastic-y"... Any thoughts on these issues from anyone?...See Moretwo different colors of beadboard in kitchen?
Comments (4)I don't think it will look funny--I have random width beadboard panels on the sides of my cabinets; the oven cab is blue, and the fridge is green, and you can see both when you walk in...I think it looks interesting! Your colors sound great, especially the dark charcoal. :-)...See Morelara_jane
