How would you cover this tile decoration?

If it were me I would get some inexpensive frames and some botanical artwork of some kind (or make some). At the $1 Store frames are very light and usually will lay very flat against the wall. I would use Fun-Tak to place the pictures over the tiles. Fun-Tak will not damage the wall and is easy to remove. I would try not to get it in the grout lines though, it might be tough to remove from that surface. Have fun!

Wow, those are U-G-L-Y, and worse, it looks like they were installed upside down! I might get a decorative tile of the same size that you actually like and use either hot glue or something like command strips to place it on top, then when you move out you can just pull them off with no damage.

I am thinking not sure if I am right but what about a pretty cut out design o contact paper.

Can you cover with paper and faux paint to match the others? Unless someone was looking closely, they probably would not notice. :)

Paint it out with cream/white chalk paint

ha... yes... they are upside down!

i'd say pcs of textured wall paper. pick a pattern and glue it on. you can steam it off when you move. often stores that carry wall paper have remnants for some reason or rolls on sale. I once contacted a wallpaper manufacturer and asked if they had 'cut offs' that they would normally throw out. I got some very nice small pieces that I used as a mosaic to cover up some awful plaster job in a place we once rented. when we moved out. I just steamed it off.

worked well.

yes. if you dampen the wall paper enough, it will mold around the edges nicely.

you will have to add a little more glue on it because once you dampen more, some will come off. but it works well.

I had once done it by using some of the fancy Japanese paper you can find in a crafting store. just used elmers glue diluted a bit for the glue. but you might have to double or triple it to cover, depending on what you would get. but that looks pretty as well. when my daughter had to rent a dumpy looking place right out of college, I used hand made paper to pretty up her uglies in the kitchen.

but I did put a thin coat of polyverithane on it so she could wipe it if needed by the stove. it still pealed off when it was time to move.

wish I had taken pictures!

Use double sided tape, foam or flat like carpet tape. I prefer using flat tape. Just cut strips size needed to cover whole square shape of ugly tile, then put whatever your heart desires up. Peel off paper covering tape sticky sides, it is strong holding but also non damaging & easy to remove. How about coasters, or sections of parquet wood flooring, or magnet tin pieces with cute or comical sayings/pics, or even plastic canvas u put your own design on? Choices are endless.

Hi ...how about those medallions that are sold in Home Depot. You can measure the size of your offending tiles.. get the medallion ( they are pliable) cut it to size. Spray paint them to bubble up the existing palet in your kitchen. Then attach with command strips. Since the location is the kitchen.. these medallions won't take on the gradual yellowing that I've seen in some kitchens.

Hope your challenge is resolved!

I would get some small jars of metal paints of varying shades,especially gold,& re-design into Egyptian symbols... *It can be done with a bit of thought & pre-drafting... Make it your own special mystery 🔮

I would buy some smaller tiles,pretty bright colors and cover the ugly permanent ones.

hey, I have been thru this nightmare! best idea is to add on polyfil fro walls fill in as much smooth it out when dry sand it a bit leave it as is or you can paint to gold so it looks like gold bricks in white tiles or any other colour:)

Corrugated cardboard cut to fit inside the border of the tile and pressed into the raised area might level the tile enough to add another piece of cardboard and wallpaper over the entire block.

You can get photos laminated to foam board (try Costco or online). If you use a mounting square or two -- the kind used to hang posters on dorm walls, between the mounting square and the foam board you should have enough depth behind the photo that it hangs flat. If you angle the photos so that they look casually hung, rather than trying to line them up with the tiles, no one should notice that you are hiding anything. The bonus is that they are easy to remove without damaging the underlying surface. A win for you and your security deposit. A win for your landlord because they have no difficult/expensive cleanup to do.

Maybe cardboard and then chalk paint?
