I hated my greasy splashbacks so bought some £16 Temu stick on tiles – it was a faff but I’m obsessed with the results
SHE "was sick" of her greasy splashbacks that took off half the paint any time she tried to clean them.
So, after getting inspiration from others online, Victoria decided to splash out on some stick on tiles from Temu to give her kitchen a revamp.
She documented the process in a video on her TikTok page, as she admitted she was initially hesitant to buy from Temu after hearing mixed reviews.
"Would you believe that these stickers only cost me £16 from Temu?" Victoria said.
"I've never bought from Temu before, and I thought it was gonna be a bit of a scam, but honestly this is so good.
"They actually look like real tiles - you cannot tell they're stickers!"

She initially showed where she'd tried to clean some of the grubbiness off her splashbacks, and it had taken the paint off.
Victoria then showed the tile stickers she'd picked up, as she had been inspired by someone else who had bought the pink version.
"You simply peel back the plastic, and then you peel back the other bit for it to be sticky," she said, demonstrating as she went.
"I placed it on the wall like this - trust me it took me hours, but it's super easy.
"This is the final result and I am so chuffed with it!"
Victoria added in the caption: "This isnt an ad, im so really happy with how these came out!
"You literally can't tell they are stickers!"
But the process wasn't entirely straightforward, as Victoria added: "The cutting in around the plugs though was a REAL faff!"
"I buy loads from there tbf," one person commented on the video.
"I've had some great stuff but prices have definitely gone up."
"Well if £16 is inflated I am sure gutted I missed them 'cheap'," Victoria laughed.
"It doesn’t look any different on camera unfortunately," someone else argued.
