Michelle, can you help with my splashback?

Thanks everyone! Yep, Venus Fly Trap... I have made green a feature throughout the open plan living areas, so it all ties in really nicely.
Thanks for all your advice bel!

Well I went with the green, and it looks great - very unique!
Excuse the terrible pic!

It's not the best pic, but you get the idea. I will take better photos when I get the chance.

I'm on the 'remove it' team... the pic of the display home (without the splashback on the end) definitely looks better.
