Butcher Block Kitchen Countertops Timeless and inviting wood butcher block countertops add a warm look to your kitchen. To keep the finish looking fresh and new seal wood countertops with a durable polyurethane and use trivets and cutting boards to protect the surface from heat and marring.
While countertops flooring and cabinets are generally places to keep it simple the backsplash is a good place to inject some personal style whether that’s with a mosaic feature or a bold color. And since that wall literally connects the countertops with the cabinets it’s also a place to tie everything together.
Natural stone backsplashes have a distinctly different texture than tiles and offer a contrast to smooth counters and cabinets. Stone is porous however which makes it harder to clean and more prone to chipping. An alternative to using smaller stacked stones is to continue the same granite or marble used for the countertops all the way up the wall.
