Right in front of my tank I have a reed mat from Ikea. It holds any water that I ever happen to spill, either until I step on it and soak it up or it evaporates, and looks good in the process. If reeds don't really suit your decor, I'm sure you can find an alternative (basically like having a towel in front of the tank all the time, except better looking). As for water around the back and sides, I just pray my tank never leaks.
