There’s something about stone that just seems to fit well inside and outside the home. It may be because of its natural beauty, or the way it suits nearly any style or taste. Whatever the reason, adding stone accents to your home is a great way to enhance both functionality and style. 

Stone comes in many different forms to fit multiple functions. Choose from smooth, sleek, and polished materials to rougher, more natural stone for accent walls or flooring. This durable material leaves you feeling confident that your stone accents will last for many years.

Create a Traditional or Farmhouse-Chic Backsplash – A stone backsplash is a great way to add visual interest to your kitchen. Use it to accentuate granite, concrete, or metal counters or contrast with other materials in the room. Because there are so many different types and colors of stone available, you’re sure to find the perfect one to fit your kitchen’s style.

Line Your Shower with Stone – For a luxurious shower experience, line the walls with smooth or textured stone. This will give your bathroom an elegant, spa-like feel or create a grotto-like niche to relax at the beginning or end of the day. Plus, it’s a great way to add texture and visual interest to the space. Just be sure to seal the stone properly to prevent mold and mildew growth.

Add Stones to Your Walls – Stone walls are a great way to create style and bring more function to your home’s interior or exterior. They can be used as an accent wall or as part of a more extensive stonework project. And because they’re so durable, you won’t have to worry about them being damaged by everyday wear and tear.

People have used stone flooring for thousands of years, so there are myriad ways to incorporate this ancient material in modern ways. From porcelain and granite to slate and limestone, sealed stone flooring merges historic and contemporary trends in your home.

Front Porch Renovation – Revamp your front porch with stone steps and accents. This will give your home instant curb appeal and make it stand out on the block. Plus, it’s a great way to add value to your home if you ever decide to sell. Here are other ways you can use stone to accentuate your outdoor living spaces:

• Stone patios
• Walkways

No matter how you choose to use it, stone is a great way to transform the look of your home. Get creative and experiment with different ways to incorporate it into your space. You’re sure to find a style that you love.
