Millions of people across Australia are spending significantly more time at home than last year, so many are taking up DIY projects around the home.
From upcycling furniture to renovating your kitchen, there's always something to do.
Kmart's products are trending online among DIYers right now, and it's clear why when you look at the before and after photos.
The product in question is a $25 pack of five self-adhesive 3D tiles in a variety of styles, including Subway White and Mosaic.

According to the Kmart website, the adhesive tiles are resistant to water, oil, high temperatures and mould.
The description says, “If you wipe off the dust during installation, you can use it in the kitchen or bathroom.''
Ever since photos of the self-adhesive tiles were posted on a Facebook group, people have gone wild for the product, with one person simply saying, “Oh, I want one.”
Another said, “I need this in my life,” and one person wrote, “Judging by all these comments, it's going to be 100% out of stock within 24 hours.”
Kmart employees warmed to the group, warning first-time visitors to the store to “give them time to get stock.”
Some people posted photos of their transformation after using the tiles, with one writing: “I just made them yesterday and I love how they turned out. They're so much lighter and brighter than before.” .
This woman said it cost her $150 to install splash tiles in her kitchen after using six bags of adhesive tiles.
She also said that they are “very sticky” and “you need to follow the instructions to properly clean the surface.”
People reacted to the woman saying her new kitchen was “incredible”, but one woman warned: If you have a gas stove, please note that it may not be fire resistant if used as a splashback. ”
As the original poster points out (and as stated on Kmart's website), self-adhesive tiles are water resistant, but “it's always best to use caution.”
“I tried it out and have it in my kitchen as a splashback. It looks okay from a distance, but not as good as the real thing, but you can't look at it too close,” another source said.
Some people were curious about how self-adhesive tiles work in rental properties and whether they can be easily removed when they move out.
One person wrote: “I got it and had to remove one of the sheets to straighten it and it took the paint off the wall.” “But they look great, and white Subway shoes feel great when worn properly.”
If I couldn't get the self-adhesive tiles from Kmart, I searched the internet for other tiles.
