Good news for renters and rehabbers: Kitchen Walls, a new company out of the Netherlands, has developed a heat- and stain-resistant wallpaper that can be applied to almost any surface, creating an instant kitchen backsplash.
Made of PVC, the wallpaper is also impermeable to water, "so it's usable behind your stove," they say. "It can be cleaned with warm water and even the most terrible stains, such as grease or tomato sauce, will disappear without effort." What's more, it's not only easy to apply (it comes with a special glue) but also removable—and reusable.
