A Watched Pot Never Boils copper kitchen backsplash behind the stove, hand-hammered copper relief. For homeowners remodeling a farmhouse or cottage kitchen, cat lovers who want their kitchen to have a personality, and anyone who thinks the kitchen should make you smile. Custom size, 15 finishes, made to order.

A black cat sitting beside an old cast-iron wood stove with a boiling pot and rising steam — three utensils hanging on a wall rack to the left, “A Watched Pot Never Boils” in script lettering across the top. Every cat, pot, and utensil raised by hand.

Installation

Adhesive Mount

Install over clean, dry, secure tile, drywall, wood, or other suitable wall surfaces using a heavy-duty construction adhesive or a suitable silicone adhesive.

Apply adhesive to the back of the panel. No drilling through the panel is needed. Follow the adhesive’s support and curing instructions.

Other Mounting Options

Where offered, choose prepared screw holes with decorative caps or hanging wire for indoor decorative display.

Installation instructions are included with your order.

View the Installation Guide.

Care & Cleaning

Clean gently with a soft cloth, warm water, and a little mild dish soap when needed. Remove soap residue and dry.

Your piece arrives with a protective clear finish. Avoid copper polish, abrasive pads, and harsh cleaners.

The finish is not permanent; its lifespan depends on use and exposure, and it may eventually need renewal.
