Now that the summer is over and my dad is done boating…I have tons of projects lined up for him. The first on my list was to add a backsplash in the boys bathroom. I had never officially finished decorating their bathroom so it was time for a bathroom update!
Every time they brush their teeth or wash their hands they would fling water all over the wall! I really wanted to add something that was functional (keeping the water off the wall) and also added a little WOW factor! I also did not want to spend a TON of money.
I realize that this is not a very “kiddish” looking bathroom, but trust me, the boys don’t care. I really wanted to do something more sophisticated since this is the bathroom that our overnight guests use as well.
I had posted about my shower curtain previously. I ordered it from Anthropologie and I LOVE it!
Different lighting makes the tile look different. It was hard to get many good pictures. It matches the shower curtain PERFECTLY! I found it on clearance at Lowes a few months back. It literally cost under $100 to tile this wall (my dad’s labor is free)! 
It was his idea to trim it out in a stained trim to match the vanity pieces. I was somewhat hesitant at first, but GEEZ does it look good! I really think the trim sets it off! Good call dad!
So there you have it…another quick and successful project finished by my dad!

I love love love love LOOOOOVE it so much!!!! You are so creative!!!! I cannot believe how cheaply you did this, I’m gonna have to maybe use this idea somewhere in my house… is it hard to do the backsplash in the kitchen? I really want that.
So, yah…. your bathroom looks badass (yes, I still say badass when it’s appropriate even though I’m a new mama).
I LOVE that Anthro shower curtain and I’m sure it ties perfectly with that tile!! GREAT JOB! Seriously – it looks like it was done by a professional interior designer. And that’s a steal for that tile under $100! Wow!

I am in LOVE with this bathroom! You have such a great eye for decorating & this turned out really cool! I think your boys will appreciate the non-kid looking bathroom when they are a little older & you will be happy you don’t have to re-do it when they are out of the little kid years!
seriously? that looks amazing! i want to hang out in there for a week or so. love it!
