Creating a Tile Backsplash in the Kitchen

A tile backsplash adds style and protects kitchen walls.

Choose affordable ceramic or subway tiles and measure the area to calculate needs. Clean and sand the wall for adhesion, then apply tile adhesive with a notched trowel. Place tiles, using spacers for even grout lines. Cut tiles for edges or outlets with a tile cutter. Let adhesive set for 24 hours, then apply grout with a rubber float, wiping excess with a damp sponge. Seal the grout after drying.

This weekend project costs $100-$200. The result is a vibrant, easy to clean backsplash that elevates your kitchen’s look. Whether you choose classic white or bold patterns, this DIY upgrade feels custom and adds style and a professional touch to your cooking space.

Honestly looks like a professional job.

This post brings me joy and courage.
