I'm ready to get out the liquid nails and glue some planks to my ugly builder stock tub. Congrats on the 1k post!

Wood certainly can be beautiful in a bathroom. Your pics certainly do show that. You just have to be careful not to overdo it.

The one thing that I do want to point out here is to be careful when installing the wood to close to any water. If you are using wood with a high gloss poly you will be OK, but if you like the low gloss look, it is semi permeable and will stain if all excess water is not wiped up immediately.

Keep it on the ceiling and even on the removable side panel, but not around the tub like in the picture.

I think it's a great idea to incorporate lighting into a wood bath surround :-)

Have you seen the tiles that look like wood?? I've seen them used on a couple of home decor shows, and I've also seen them on display in a tile showroom. They look quite nice, and are even sized like wood planks. Might be an option to look into -- although real wood would be best :-)

Love the bathtub surrounds.. I think they work perfectly with your house. You could do both the ceiling and the bathtub surround if done right...

I'm with you about wood in bathroom. I've only seen it in mountain cabins, sometimes at the beach. Always rustic though not sleek like your pictures.

I'm a big fan of interesting ceilings. You don't have to have !!!!BEAMS!!!! to bang heads on; you can just have beams.
