I have glass blocks. they provide so much light. love them. If I were to remodel, I would still make it a source of light, ie window. then again, my tub is against an exterior wall.

A big window. Now with a shade!

Oh, I answered on the bathroom forum, too.

Jewel, I found a raku triptych to hang above my tub. I like it because steam/moisture won't ever affect it.

I have a nice, colorful print above my soaker bathtub.

This is the master bath in our soon-to-be new home, and we too have glass blocks over the tub, vossner! I've always loved a glass block window. The builder put hook-ups on the wall to the left (up high, over the towel rod) for a TV. I used to think a TV in the bathroom was just absolutely ridiculous.

But now I want one.

;-)

I have a large framed poster called Blues Come Through by Alice Dalton Brown. It is reflected in the mirrors when you are standing in front of the sink, too, so it sort of looks like a window. I wanted something inexpensive so I wouldn't feel bad if the moisture in the room ruined it.

I have 2 large windows over our tub, so I could only hang something at the one end. I have a framed print of a pretty tropical bay there. BTW, our bathroom looks out onto a walled, private garden, with lots of trees outside the walls and our neighbors are several acres away. Without all that, I could never have a bathroom with windows like this!

we took the tub out of this house's master bath, but windows were above the one that was here just like there was above every master tub in every master bath we've ever had!

add: I think tiling, artwork or a mural all could look nice- depends on the look you want in your bathroom and how much you want to spend. you could also put up a patterned wallpaper that could decorate a large expanse of space....

Wow you all have really nice master baths! What a retreat :-)

Four windows.

Windows with plantation shutters and a privacy brick wall with a courtyard.

We just redid our master bath, added a stand-alone soaking tub and a new clerestory/transom window up near the ceiling above the tub. There is wall space below and I plan to put shelves where I can display bath salts, candles, vase, or other relevant items like a glass of wine.

I have a huge window over mine.....and I think it is the same tub as LynnNM...

I'm interested in this thread too. We have a tub in the guest room with a blank wall behind it that is very visible from the large mirror over the vanity that is opposite it, so you really see the wall a lot from the mirror. And it's a windowless room. So far I haven't put anything there, so some inspiration will certainly help.

My bathroom has textured walls (swirl pastern) which adds a lot of dimension and is art in and of itself. Here is one angled pic of the area. I think I could have chosen a larger piece for the area, but it's dark in there and I thought a mirror reflecting the vanity lights helped. IDK.

My air jet tub is between toilet room and glass-enclosed shower. Big archtop window over the tub. Hotel-style towel holder on the toilet wall side, which is where the faucets are.

I'm in the same boat as Annie. Good thread

(Shaking head like Lurch on the Munsters)...my master bath remodel has been completed for 7.5 years and the long wall above the tub is STILL nekkid! I can't find the one thing that makes my heart skip a beat. I've found several things that "eh" would look ok but I felt like I was settling and I won't do that.

I have been through hundreds of master bath photos on this site and find it very interesting how SO many of us appear to be struggling to fill this wall space. If the tub doesn't have windows around it, most photos seem to just show a simple towel bar on that wall, or nothing at all! Here's hoping all of us who are stumped find something that appeals to our hearts soon!

Above our tub there are mirrors from the top of the tile to the moulding at the ceiling, which happens to be directly across from the two mirrors above the vanity. Thanks previous owners! I can see more angles of myself than I ever wanted to. Ugghhh....

We have a large window with plantation shutters.

I have 2 windows (with faux wood blinds covering them thank you) at right angles above the tub in the master bath, so no wall art there. However, I do have a prominent piece of wall separating 2 mirrors over our vanities.........This wall is crying for something but I haven't found it.

The other day, I saw some really pretty decorative wall clocks and have been thinking about that. For some reason I wasn't sure if it would be odd to have a pretty wall clock hanging there, although honestly it kind of makes sense. What do you think? The ones I saw (at Ross or TJMaxx) were round and had nice detailed frames. I am linking a nice substantial one I just saw on the o site, just wondering what the decorating experts here think of a decorative clock as a piece of décor in a bathroom.square not round but a pretty clock

Persnicketydesign, you had me rolling! I thought the one tiny mirror over my tub was already offering too many glorious angles also! Lol!

Since mine is in a guest room, I avoid clocks...too much pressure when I want folks to relax....

Annie- that is what I was wondering- if it was bad joo joo or something like that to have a clock in the bathroom- because I never really see it.

We have an Onzen tub with a vintage window leaning - it's secured so no danger. I bought French fabric at least 5 years ago, but have yet to make half curtains. Live on acreage anyway... maybe one day.

I like having a nice clock on the wall in my bathroom. Right now, to go with the old home I'm in, I have a vintage-style round clock hanging above the doorway - like this:

It really helps keep me on track when I'm getting ready to go - wherever it is I get ready to go!

I plan to have a clock somewhere in my new master bath, although probably not the one pictured above.
