Trends in Kitchen Wall Decoration
By: Tammy Billings

The
kitchen is a woman’s territory, no doubt, but there are some men who
can cook too. That said, a woman tends to imbue her personality in her
kitchen, modeling it to suit her aesthetic tastes. Some prefer country
or feminine themes, while others like to go modern or minimalist.
Interior details and trends for the kitchen may have changed as the
years pass but the fact remains that women still want their kitchen to
reflect themselves.



Women think highly of how people see
their kitchens, which sometimes drives women to be meticulous in giving
their kitchen a certain feel with the use of appliances paired with
themed decorations, kitchen wallpapers, wallpaper borders, and whatnot.




Most women today still go for kitchens that radiate the
classic yet cozy country atmosphere. Wallpaper that possesses the warm
countryside vibe includes toile wallpaper and borders that display
fruit and vegetable patterns. Images like apples in a box or baskets,
grapes and berries, and green vines are great options for country
wallpaper border. Other great country-inspired wallpaper border designs
have images of farm animals, bottles and jars, herbs, teacups, silver
and cooking ware, and various fruits and vegetables.



Another
wallpaper trend that best fits the kitchen are toile wallpaper designs
with Vintage, French, and Victorian themes. Vintage wallpaper borders
that show scenes from the olden days provide your kitchen with an
antique look and feel. Checkered French wallpaper border with French
recipes is also a pleasing choice for kitchen walls.



Modern
kitchens meanwhile, require a taste of modernity. No other kitchen
wallpaper displays modernity than the Harlequin. Harlequin kitchen
wallpapers are the preferred choice by interior designers who remodel
contemporary and sophisticated kitchens. It is very easy to manipulate
Harlequin wallpapers to suit any theme as they can be custom-made.
Brush strokes, medallions, leaves, circles, squares and abstract shapes
are also great designs for contemporary, modern wallpaper.



A
trend that has made some waves in interior design is faux finishing.
While most faux finishes only appear in dens and living rooms, one can
employ a faux finishing job on kitchen walls too. Though an actual faux
finish painting may look good, kitchen wallpaper with faux finish
details is also aesthetically pleasing. In addition, kitchen counters,
table tops, cupboards, and other kitchen fixtures can be pasted with a
faux finish detail to incorporate a similar theme. Faux designs that
can enhance any kitchen are stucco and marbleized finishes.



Kitchen
wallpaper is a great and inexpensive alternative to completely
remodeling a kitchen. To make kitchen wallpaper and borders create the
best of effects, it must go well with the other decorations, fixtures,
and lights of the kitchen they are installed in. A harmonious synchrony
among these decorative elements can give any kitchen a robust feel and
a truly inviting atmosphere.
