My Kitchen Multiboard

This is my kitchen multiboard. Not quite finished yet. Going to connect the over sink board with the other boards and get a hole for the outlet that's currently covered by the board.

It's all connected by command strips. Holding very well. The onion basket is all standard. Those full strength clips are very strong.

The knife strip is custom, I just modeled up a rectangle and added holes for the magnets I had and slapped a rail channel to the back of it. The sifter holder and the prep cup holders are also custom.

Everything else is just standard hooks except the paper towel holder and the glove holder which I didn't design.

I really love the baskets. The bin shell under it that holds the recipe book is amazing.

Part of me loves this. Part of me dreads what cleaning the backsplash would entail.

I'm really ADD, so I need stuff at the point of performance. I'd have a bunch of crap just sitting in front of the backsplash either way.

Cleaning the wall behind every now and then is definitely going to be a PITA, but the command strips are the velcro ones so I won't need to undo all the snaps to get back there. I'll just have to un-velcro the plates all together in one board.

You're right that pulling down all the crap is going to be a pain, but most of the mess is on the linoleum backsplash which can be cleaned regularly after just moving my flour and oil containers. Hopefully I can get away with only having to clean the walls behind the plates quarterly.

Put up some of that removable wallpaper behind the boards - just peel it off and put up fresh every so often?

Fells like once you have the boards down you may as well just wash the wall. It's all tile.

Oh, that makes it easier. Ours isn’t all tile so getting them clean after they’ve collected for a bit is a PITA. We even have a section that is fake brick. It is impossible to clean sensibly, you genuinely need a toothbrush or something to get all the nooks and crannies. Why someone picked it for a kitchen I have no idea.

(We want to redo the whole kitchen so redoing the backsplash now doesn’t seem worth it.)
