Tile isn't the only option for a textured backsplash, and real dimension isn't your only option if you love classic plaster.

Layers of sheet rock were combined with troweled, stenciled , and hand sculpted plaster, to create this "French courtyard".

Sometimes these niches the builder's include are too small for the wall, or too stark for the art.  I can fix that.  Your builder didn't include them?  I've got a carpenter who can fix that.

Faux plaster stone is a great way to create stone niches and door surrounds, where space for stone veneers doesn't exist.
