Hands-on A $100 Backsplash With Stainless Steel Stick-On Wall Tile, step by step

When Amy sent over her $100 backsplash makeover we were so inspired and simply had to share. Here is her letter:

I whipped this out in about five hours and am quite excited about the results! I picked up nine packages of these light, thin stainless wall tiles. The tiles include double-stick foam squares for hanging, so there is no messy tile work. Some reviewers recommended Liquid Nails, but I was worried about making corrections if thing did not line up properly. I can go back if there is a problem, but they feel quite secure! You can cut these tiles with a pair of scissors and even bend the tiles! I snipped a cut on each side and bent them around a ruler to make a 90 degree angle for corners and to cut down the size on my top row. It looks fantastic, and now I do not have to trim around an unfinished edge. One thing to look out for – here is a slight grain to the tiles and you will see a reflection difference if you do not hang them all in the same direction. This was one of my easiest home projects ever! The whole 27 square feet of tile cost me $94.77 (with free shipping!) and I also picked up new stainless switchplates to match, so my total came to about $110.00. Hope you enjoy! You’ve inspired a lot of projects in my house, but this is my go-to so far! Thank you! -Amy

And here is the whole shebang after Amy stepped back to admire the wrapped up product:

Do not you enjoy how plain yet sleek that is? We are excited to hear that it is a swift fix for anyone (even renters!) who want to upgrade their kitchen and hide dated tile without breaking the bank. Thanks so much for sending the before and after pics our way Amy! What a lovely view you now have when you are whipping up spaghetti.
