Emma's Style: Decorating with a Country Garden Splashback
Country Garden is one of Emma Britton’s most loved and sought after floral glass splashback designs. First unveiled at RHS Chelsea Flower Show, this beautiful floral glass pattern has become a firm favourite with Emma’s splashback clients ever since. To celebrate this enduring design, Emma shares her personal favourite ways to style a Country Garden splashback for this journal post.
The beauty of Country Garden (alongside so many of Emma’s other glass splashback designs) is that it’s really versatile. Thanks to the hand painted splashback pattern which incorporates many tones, so many shades of interior paint and finish harmonise well with this beautifully elegant design. The interior ideas in this journal post are just to inspire you, as Country Garden is very at home in all sorts of kitchens, bathrooms and bootrooms. It’s always a real joy seeing how clients choose to personalise their spaces in different ways with an Emma Britton splashback.
Styling a Floral Glass Splashback: Country Garden
For Emma, the Country Garden splashback is just made for a country kitchen. It’s what she envisioned when designing and displaying the splashback for the first time at RHS Chelsea Flower Show. Country Garden naturally lends itself to complementing traditional kitchen essentials such as Belfast sinks, range cookers and heritage fixtures and fittings.
A cream or off-white range cooker is Emma’s ideal choice for this fresh, floral glass splashback. Our favourite cooker brand, Everhot, is a brilliant choice for a modern appliance full of heritage appeal. As a contemporary take on the classic blue and white colour palette, Country Garden is an interior look that won’t date. Especially when paired with a timeless kitchen appliance to complement. If your cooker is set in an alcove, adding down lighting really helps bring forward your splashback design as a centrepiece.
Continue the fresh look with stone worktops. Natural materials particularly suit a country kitchen style so think about this across other surfaces and kitchen fixtures too. Modern brass handles or socket covers, for example, add a nice heritage touch.
A shaker-style kitchen is also one of Emma’s top choices for this floral glass splashback; consider one in neutral tones for maximum elegance. Although, dark green cabinetry is an equally stylish choice. This beautiful, hand-built country kitchen by James Adcock Kitchens (below) features Emma’s Willow & Red Admiral splashback. However, Country Garden would look equally stunning in this room.
Country Garden: Bath Splashback
Alternatively, Emma recommends Country Garden for a bathroom setting. The naturalistic look of this design makes it a great bath splashback. It gives the effect of flowers growing up and around your bathtub. Calming hues of blue and purple will help create a relaxing bathroom atmosphere. Whilst throwing a splash of uplifting colour into a white bathroom suite.
