Bathroom mod/finishing options?

Our 2015 Cedar Creek 38CK has an in edged mirror in the bathroom and no backsplash guard or tile behind the faucet. The mirror I would like to frame or replace. The backsplash I would like to put something there to protect the wall from water/toothpaste/shaving splatters but I don't know what because tile or stone is so heavy.

Have any of you done either of these projects? Ideas?

Take a look at Smart Tile from Lowes. Much lighter than regular tile. Very easy to install.

Thank you. I will look into them. Have you seen them at your local Lowes? I've looked recently and haven't seen anything light weight.

Our Home Depot had them, they are in the tile aisle, and they are basically a thick sticker that looks like tile. We have put some in our Toy Hauler. Here is some of them already attached.

Couldn't find the tiles you were talking about but Home Depot had these. The stone ones will be too heavy I think.

Smart Tiles are usually only sold online. Wayfair had some excellent sales on them as well as Home Depot.

I looked locally for these for awhile and could never find them (in the Denver area). I found several different patterns on Amazon and Home Depot on line.

You'd think they'd be in stock in Home Depot and Lowes. They're only sold online which probably turns a lot of people off.

Sorry to hear that, our local Home Depot has about 5 different designs in stock.

Your photos are gorgeous! I want to do that too! Going to Lowes today to see if they have them.

Thanks! I was really happy with the way both rooms came out. The Smart Tiles are the "Bellagio Sabia". Might be tough to find them in stock at an actual store. Wayfair.com & Home Depot online have huge selections, wait for a sale though, they ARE expensive! The best prices were at Wayfair.com, I paid $3 a sheet.

Easy to install & they don't weigh a ton.

We got ours from Home Depot online

So pretty! I found these at a Lowes across town but they weren't smart tiles and I wasn't sure about the quality. I didn't get these. I'm going to wait for a sale of the Smart Tile.
