Looking for backsplash that’s easy and cheap to DIY

If it's just behind the range I'd do stainless steel. Inexpensive, easy to clean. But I'm very function > form.

10 DIY Kitchen Backsplash Ideas for Your Home
January 31, 2023 - Installing ceramic tiles on a backsplash is hardly a novel idea. It is, in fact, one of the smartest ways to cover a backsplash, since tiles are sturdy, waterproof, and easy to customize. They are also difficult to install accurately and well. Tile is heavy and its adhesive, thinset, can be hard to work with. Not only that, but tile is permanent. This bars renters from ever-changing out the dated harvest gold backsplash that they must confront every day. Bypass this with the ultimate DIY backsplash: tile decals such as Gypsy Yaya did above.

DIY Budget Backsplash Idea for the Kitchen for Under $50 - Paper & Stitch
February 15, 2024 - With all the white on white happening in the studio kitchen right now (white cabinets, white countertops, etc), I really wanted a pop of color (and pattern) for the backsplash. But instead of spending a whole lot of money on custom cement tiles, I decided to create my own. Sort of. I teamed up with 3M and ScotchBlue™ Painter’s Tape to create a super budget-friendly tile option that mimics the unique patterns of those oh-so popular cement ones, using…..wait for it….peel and stick vinyl tiles. This DIY route may sounds a bit strange, BUT I saved a ton of money and was able to create the exact color combo and pattern I was hoping for.

r/kitchenremodel on Reddit: Help! Desperately need backsplash suggestions to replace this heinous mosaic
August 27, 2024 -

Hey everyone, I'm desperate to replace the backsplash in my kitchen and could use some advice! I absolutely hate the current mosaic tile (see photos) and am open to all ideas for a replacement.

Some details:

Cabinets: Off-white/cream Countertop: Dark black with flecks (I'd describe it as a slightly speckled black granite) Floors: Warm, medium-tone wood Appliances: Stainless steel

Everything will remain the same EXCEPT the backsplash, which I'm dying to replace! I'm open to any and all ideas-colors, patterns, textures-you name it. Literally anything would be better than what's currently there.
