Minor Kitchen Revamp

SO here are some pics of the small improvement we made to the kitchen....It had NO backsplash, so the wall behind the stove and most of the existing countertop was covered in grease splatters (most of which were not caused by us, but by the old owners). So we decided to put in a backsplash.

Home Depot sold these panels in a few different metallic finishes-They are thermalplastic to withstand the heat, and they dress up our ugly and old kitchen just a little bit...Till the day we can afford to do a complete redo, which is still several years down the road. So here is our $150
kitchen makeover......
