Nice and practical
What kind of woman would refuse home help? But, often, a blue dream remains a dream. Cooking, cleaning, washing - this is an incomplete list of things that require female hands.
And if there is no way to do the work for them, then to facilitate domestic work, everyone can do it.
Kitchen aprons through a designer lens
The most time-consuming occupation is cooking and even more effort is required to clean the kitchen. Whatever one may say, but dirty dishes, drips on the stove, debris are rarely avoided.
Even the tidiest housewife is not immune from accidentally spilled sauce or grease splashes.
To keep cleaning simple and less troublesome, manufacturers of household chemicals tirelessly fill the market with new products, but this is not a panacea.
All surfaces in the kitchen must be protected and easy to clean. One such element is an apron for the kitchen, but not the one that women usually wear.
This apron is also clothing, but for the walls and it is up to you to choose the style in which it will be made.
Kitchen apron ideas
When choosing an apron for the kitchen, they are guided by the same principles as when choosing wallpaper.
Everything will depend on how you place accents in the perimeter of your kitchen.
- For an interior with bright and catchy facades, it would be more appropriate to use an apron in neutral tones.
- When choosing a headset in one color scheme, the working area can be highlighted with an original ornament that attracts the eye.
- Recently, a panel for an apron for the kitchen has become very popular.

- Ceramic tiles (photo);
Panels for the kitchen on an apron in the Provence style

Interesting instruction, on the topic "How to create an apron with your own hands", from the master is also on our website in other articles.
The technique of painting ceramics is a very ancient craft, but interest in it has not faded away in our time. The desire to create a unique style in their home encourages our compatriots to master new crafts, which often become both a hobby and a passion.
Advice! During the finishing work of the kitchen, bath, toilets, a lot of broken tiles remain. Do not rush to throw it away. From multi-colored fragments, a wonderful author's picture can turn out. Watch the video how others do it. Another reason for inspiration.
Panel - in a new format
From modern technologies in the manufacture of aprons, a new direction can be distinguished - glass panels, the so-called skinals.
Indeed, there are endless possibilities in decorating premises.
- Drawing a picture, of any complexity, up to photographic images, allows you to equip the kitchen in a variety of styles, starting with modern and high-tech;
- The choice of the intensity of the colors will help create a certain atmosphere of the space;
- The use of illumination both inside the panel and outside it greatly increases the invariance of design decisions;
- Etc.
Artistic Cubism in Kitchen Design
The most elegant and expressive design option for a kitchen apron is a mosaic panel. With its help, you can create paintings and ornaments. In any interior, the effect of "degradation", "overflow" of saturated colors into pale shades, looks a win-win.
Mosaic can be made from:
- Glass;
- Ceramics;
- Smalts;
- Metal.
But such panels have one, but a very significant drawback - this is a huge number of seams. This creates inconvenience during installation and operation.
Not only do they have to be washed out very carefully, the grout tends to turn yellow over time, so the freshness of the picture is quickly lost.
Advice! In order for the mosaic panel to preserve its original beauty, use adhesives based on epoxy resins. And for grouting, professionals recommend glass grout.

Choosing an apron for the kitchen
Depending on the design solution of the entire interior, the type of kitchen aprons is also selected.
They are:
- Neutral;
- Mini;
- Contrasting;
- Bright;
- As a decoration.
Neutral aprons
This option uses soft, pastel colors. This design is preferred by those who perceive the working wall only as a functional element of the interior.
It should not stand out, so the color is chosen strictly to match the color of the furniture. It can be compared to simple, high-quality clothing that looks modest but tasteful.
Modestly but tastefully neutral decisions
Mini aprons
Some interior style does not provide for aprons in the size of the entire work wall. Surface protection is carried out only in those places where the likelihood of contamination is especially high, as a rule, these are the hob and sink zones.
Local islands can be made in a variety of configurations. Carved silhouettes can bring a special charm and personality. Due to the small area of coverage, the price for such aprons is very affordable.

Contrast
To prevent the kitchen from looking dull and boring, you can advise using contrasting aprons. They will be especially harmoniously combined with plain furniture and interior.
They will not only bring colors into the room, but also give expressiveness to the atmosphere as a whole.
By alternating pale and saturated colors, you can visually zoom in and out of objects. This is very handy when you need to adjust the space.

Aprons for neatmen
To create a certain mood in the room, you can use bright aprons. However, they require “color support” in the form of furniture handles and various accessories that match the tone. Only in this combination, the kitchen interior will look like a single ensemble.
Do not forget that bright colors always attract attention, which means that a bright apron is more suitable for very neat housewives. Because even a minor mess will spoil the overall picture.
