I wonder if anyone could help. My wife has dreamed up this idea for
our bathroom and I just wondered if it was practical.

In our kitchen, we used a piece of toughened glass as a splashback.
Bought it from a glazier, who painted the back white and foil backed
it. Looks fantastic - would recomend it highly. Cheap (£80 or so) and
looks very cool - that kind of milky green look.

Now in the bathroom, her idea is to use a long thin strip (c. 40cm
high by 3m long) of the same stuff to break up a wall of plain white
tiles. Effectively therefore you get a plain white tiled wall with
this long strip of frosted glass at the right height so that it is
just above the sink.

Very clever.

But: 2 questions.

Firstly, can you just insert this glass as if it were one big long
tile? Would you simply attach it with tile adhesive or would there be
issues?

Also, we wanted to try painting it with a colour other than white,
purple in fact. However I am concerned that rather than looking
purple, the green tint of the glass will simply make it rather brown.
Anyone any experience?

Cheers in advance

Daniel
