Last Updated On

We’re happy to report that color is back in style—what better way to celebrate than by embracing one of the most joyous colors available: yellow? The combination of yellow kitchen backsplash tiles and white cabinets is utterly charming. The white perfectly offsets the vibrancy of yellow and ties the whole room together. Whether you go for a shade of lemon, amber, mustard, or gold, yellow is an incredibly versatile color. The tone you go for can completely transform the atmosphere of your kitchen.
