Bathtub Backsplashes

A bathtub backsplash is part of the wall or all of the walls of the bathtub that are covered with some material. It was a very common feature in bathroom design and didn’t make a big comeback. This is a great idea for many reasons: It’s a creative feature that helps the bathtub stand out in the bathroom – especially for those who love a bathtub. It also has some practical uses: the covered wall or walls are protected from foam and water splashes, which is essential for wall coverings such as wallpaper, wood and other not very waterproof walls. Let’s take a look at some ideas to rock this unique decor feature in your space.

Bathroom niches with backsplashes

Some bathrooms have comfortable alcoves for baths or showers, creating a backsplash in an alcove that you usually cover all three walls. Such a backsplash protects the walls and possibly a window from splashes, and you can put wallpaper or chalkboard over the tub. Dress up the backsplash with matching tiles similar to those used throughout the room and dress up the bathtub as well. Another idea is to rock something very bold and different and you can also simply opt for tiles covering the rest of the walls with wood or something else. Try different contrasting materials for the backsplash, e.g. B. marble, stone or even wood tiles.

Bathtubs with backsplashes

If you don’t have a niche, you don’t have to cover much with your backsplash. Cover only one wall that your bathtub rests against and don’t make it too big – just for splashes. The idea is actually the same: you can opt for a look that matches or contrasts with your backsplash. Marble, tile and stone can be very different or exactly the same as on the floor. For example, this is a great way to make your bathroom look bigger. You can cover the bathtub with it for a more uniform look. Get inspired and save your walls!
