Thank you so much for this idea. I did it to my kitchen and it turned out great. It looks like I bought new cabinets. The whole project cost me $10!

I love this idea! I did the contact paper cabinets to my kitchen, and it turned out wonderful. Best part, was that it was only $9.00 for the whole kitchen. Thank you for this project!

MARVELOUS! Especially since I love damask patterns and have icky 80′s cabinetry- all dark wood and pineapple-handles. I will totally be doing something like this in my kitchen.

woops…you mentioned the double sided tape…lol…guess reading at 6am before the third cup of coffee isn’t a good idea:)

What a wonderful idea! I rent as well and the rules about decorating are very limiting but I really don’t want to live with all white walls for the next couple of years. Instead of thumbtacks though, I wonder if double sided tape would work just as well? Any holes, no matter how small, have to be filled in before moving and filling in many tack holes would drive me loony:) Just an idea:)

That is inspiring! I don’t know what to be more impressed with, the placemat backsplash or the awesome new light fixture!
So cool!

That’s incredible! Thanks so much for the link! My parents have been wanting to redo their kitchen cabinets, but they can’t afford even a few hundred dollars, so this would be a great idea for them!
