Buy a type of matching tiles limestone bullnose you want to create your backsplash along with a kind of stucco color that will go well with tiles of limestone. If the wall that you are doing in the backsplash to drywall is simply painted then all you have to do is to sand drywall smooth and can build it right at the top. If there is already backsplash then you need to remove all of the backsplash and the drywall underneath, then replace it with new drywall. Also measure the length and width of the wall will put [backsplash]. Depending on the size of tiles you get is the easiest to use graph paper to use the measurements of your plan of a pattern [backsplash].
