Chalkboard is popular for home decor for many reasons, and it can be used everywhere, from kitchens to home offices. Chalkboard has a whole bunch of advantages: it’s budget-friendly, it inspires creativity, it’s interactive and adds interest to the space. Today I’m going to share some chalkboard kitchen backsplashes that may inspire you to go for one.
A chalkboard backsplash features a creative and unique look, when tiles are too common, marble is too expensive and you don’t feel like polished metal, it’s a cool thing to try. Chalkboard surfaces bring texture and depth due to the dark shades, they contrast bright and light-colored cabinets and add drama to moody spaces, so they are suitable for any color of kitchen cabinets.

More than that, a chalkboard backsplash is like a canvas, which allows creating any art and notes that you want. This way you personalize the space much more and it becomes more original. Your kids will be happy to chalk on the backsplash while you are cooking and you can chalk down a recipe on it, too. To give yourself and your family more space for creativity, go for a whole chalkboard wall, not just a backsplash.

Though chalkboard surfaces seem not very functional, they are very easy to apply, you can DIY the whole project. A chalkboard backsplash isn’t expensive, it can be renovated as often as you need, and it’s a great idea for rentals – you can repaint it easily. You may attach any holders and shelves to the chalkboard surfaces while drilling tiles to attach a shelf is very hard.
