A mosaic apron in the kitchen can become a real decoration of the room. In addition to its main function - to protect the wall from moisture and aggressive substances, it is designed to carry an aesthetic load. A beautifully laid mosaic apron will always please the hostess of the house.
There are several types of materials from which you can make an apron. The most modern will be ceramics and glass. They are stable, practical, and in terms of the variety of design options they have no equal.
You can make an apron not from solid tiles, but from pieces. Mosaic in the kitchen looks very beautiful, but you need to be able to work with it. The pieces of the mosaic are small, so you will have to do jewelry work with many seams.
There are several ideas for laying such tiles that will make the kitchen unique:
- Mix - mosaic tiles are selected in the same color, but at the same time have different shades. It must be remembered that the more shades, the more beautiful the result will be. True, the price of work is also rising.
- "Stretch" or gradient - the difference is that the "stretch" grid is square. The mosaic is laid out from a highly saturated color to a weaker one. For example, from bright green to slightly greenish. This type is often used in the bathroom.
- Panel - factory mosaic is taken here and some pattern or pattern is laid out from it.
The design of the mosaic apron also depends on the materials chosen.
Ceramic mosaic tiles look very elegant. It looks like expensive handmade material. Very suitable for oriental style. It will serve for a long time and is practical.
A glass mosaic apron will look very nice. At the same time, it is easier to care for her, she is also durable, but cheaper. From a glass mosaic resembling glossy pebbles turned by the sea, you can lay out something on a marine theme.
The tiles made of smalt (a variant of glass mosaic) have a rich color and high strength. She looks like a man-made, and as if glows from the inside. Various impurities are added to it to simulate, for example, nacre.
A beautiful apron can be obtained by making it from a glass mosaic with minerals such as aventurine or the pride. The surface is flickering and shining with rainbow colors.
The apron can also be laid out from porcelain stoneware, mother of pearl, pieces of mirrors or metal mosaics. Here the scope for imagination is very wide. But still, the most common are kitchen aprons made of ceramics and glass. To get the original drawing, you can try to make the middle of the mosaic of one kind, and the border from another. However, you must consider the compatibility of materials with each other.
