hello everyone! im hoping someone can help with an idea i have had. im not sure if ive seen it somewhere, or if ive made it up lol.
we live in a rented house at the moment and have to make sure all our changes to the house are reversible. and we were thinking of making the kitchen a little bit different.
what my plan is, is to lay some funky comic book wallpaper on the worktops and then cover them with some kind of clear perspex or similar. giving the effect of comic strip worktops which are wipeable etc.
i was wondering if anyone can suggest any ways of doing this? at the moment the only materials i have got is the wallpaper lol. i have a built in hob in the worktop, so the perspex strip will have to be cut to accommodate this, but thats no problem as i have a black belt in jigsaw wielding!
what im really unsure of is firstly what type of perspex to get, as it will need to be fairly hard wearing and heat resistant enough to put a saucepan on it off the hob. and also how could i fix the wallpaper and perspex down without damaging the original worktop underneath so when we move we can just whip it off and it will be as it was originally.
any ideas anyone?? many thanks in advance!
