Kitchen decor?

Kitchen decor?

We have a somewhat large area (maybe 3X6)? on the kitchen wall thats blank/white.

There are brownish spots coming through the wall although we painted it several times, it still comes though. We think they are studs.

Can you recommend something that we can put up to cover the unsightliness? I am not the hugest fan of pictures in the kitchen due to flying grease, food particles, etc. What else can we put there? The spots are in sporadic places so something small is out.

I should mention we rent so this is not something we need or want to fix (the brown spots)

TIA!

Why don't you do a picture wall with lots of different sized pictures, they can be like those French Advertisements, or food themed pictures or even family photos. That way you can cover the spots specifically.

Have you tried using the Kilz primer that's made for hiding stains? It should keep the brown spots from showing through.
