Hanging pictures in the kitchen

Our adhesive picture hangers for your kitchen wall

How do I hang pictures in a kitchen?

The kitchen is the place where a large part of social life takes place in many households. It’s where you have breakfast together in the morning or gather for dinner with your roommates. Additionally, many people spend time in the kitchen preparing delicious meals. Therefore, it is particularly important that the space is beautifully and stylishly furnished. In addition to having a beautiful kitchen and suitable furniture, the wall is a crucial factor for elegant decoration. With stylish kitchen pictures, you can not only enhance the visual appeal of your kitchen but also make it truly cozy. Do you also want to spruce up your kitchen with a stylish wall art and are still looking for the perfect motif? Are you wondering how to hang pictures in a kitchen? Hanging pictures in a kitchen can quickly become a real challenge for the DIY enthusiast. This is especially the case when the wall you want to attach the picture to is tiled. After all, you want to avoid drilling holes in tiles. We’ll give you tips for optimal wall decoration in your kitchen and show you how to creatively enhance your walls without too much effort. The fastest way to hang your artwork on the kitchen wall is by using our self-adhesive picture hangers. Our hanging systems are particularly suitable if the wall behind your kitchen is tiled. But they also work for all other wall surfaces, allowing you to securely and reliably arrange your pictures on the wall.

What motif should I choose for a kitchen? And what material should my artwork have?

Tastes are known to vary, and many people struggle with choosing a motif. In the space where you prepare your meals, it is natural for your motifs to revolve around food, drinks, and cooking. Popular motifs include coffee beans, fruits, and vegetables. Fragrant herbs or spices are also commonly chosen for kitchen images.

Of course, the images in your kitchen can also correspond to your personal taste in food. If you have a preference for Italian cuisine, for example, you can depict pasta, tomatoes, or pizza in a picture. However, your picture frames do not necessarily have to depict food. Hang whatever you like on the wall.

If you want to hang a picture in your kitchen, you should use a wipeable material. Grease splatters can be less easily removed from canvas prints or photo prints compared to images on panels. Therefore, acrylic glass images, images on aluminum composite (Alu-Dibond) or forex are particularly suitable. Classic picture frames with a glass pane and matting also work well for kitchen wall decoration. All of these materials have in common that they are easily wipeable in case of any spills during cooking.

This way, your picture blends in particularly harmoniously with your kitchen.

First, you should decide how many pictures you want to hang on the wall. If you arrange your artwork vertically, the walls of your kitchen will appear taller, while horizontal arrangements make rooms appear wider. Combine what goes together, but let an underlying order be visible. Additionally, make sure that your pictures are always hung at eye level on the wall. This is typically the case at a height of 1.55 meters (measured from the floor).

Next, consider the effect you want to achieve with the art on your wall. Either match the colors of your pictures to the color scheme of your kitchen, or deliberately create color accents. For example, in a black and white kitchen, you can deliberately create a color contrast with a wall picture of a red bell pepper. Another idea is a color contrast with a colorful frame.

Once you’ve found your motif, think about the hanging and the perfect spot in your apartment. If you have a small dining area with a counter or table in your kitchen, you can hang your wall picture above the dining area. Even in smaller kitchens or kitchenettes, there is usually a suitable place where you can hang a smaller frame.

You can also use the free space next to the kitchen door or kitchen window to decorate it with pictures. You can even enhance the workspace of your kitchen with wall pictures. Do you want to buy modern canvas pictures? Our tip: However, make sure that each picture has enough space and is hung at a sufficient distance from furniture or other furnishings. Because only with enough space, your works will be optimally displayed, and you can achieve a harmonious overall picture.

Another easy and creative way to hang a canvas, picture frame, or framed photos is by using a picture ledge. The picture ledge can be easily mounted on a free wall space in the dining area and can then be filled with pictures of all kinds. The pictures are simply placed on the picture ledge and leaned against the wall.
