Restore an unpleasant backsplash with well-priced ceramic tiles. Fashionable today are 4-inch by 6-inch subway tiles in bright white or ivory. Lay tiles in an offset bone pattern where vertical grout lines are spread out from one row to the next.
If current ceramic tiles are smooth (without a raised pattern) they can also be improved with a coat of paint. Just make sure to remove any gloss from the tiles so the primer can adhere properly. You might use melamine paint for this task, since it's known for improved grip and stability (available at most paint stores and big box retailers).
A kitchen has so many hard surfaces that a fabric window treatment is almost always a welcome addition. If a soft treatment doesn't appeal, create a display area for porcelain and dishware by installing glass shelves in front of a sunny window. Or hang a stained-glass panel directly in front of an on hand window.
