Mirrors placed on the wall behind your bathtub can also make a small bath appear a bit larger by giving the room a more open feel. Make sure you use waterproof glue or epoxy when adhering the mirror(s) to the wall. You can use hardware such as screws to affix the mirror(s) if you like. Whether you use adhesive or hardware; you will need to caulk around the mirror(s) to prevent any water from trickling down behind them.
