Every space in your home is important and of course, the bathroom should not be forgotten. However, it’s also one of the most expensive rooms in the house to renovate. But don’t worry. You don’t have to rip up tiles and tear everything up to give your bathroom a facelift. A simple tweak can make it a relaxing escape for you and even your guests. Here are some tips on how you can make your bathroom look classier.
Change your counter top accessories
These subtle pieces help you have an easy bathroom update while keeping your counter top clean and organized. If you don’t have time for shopping, check your house for a pretty bowl, ceramic mug, vase, or even a small tray to corral your things. Remember that some items look good on the counter but other items such as shaving gels and medicines should be kept inside a drawer or cabinet.
Choose a mirror with flair
Don’t settle with a standard contractor-grade mirror and let your personality show by choosing a decorative one. Mirrors are a necessity in the bathroom but it doesn’t mean it has to lack style. You can easily have a new-looking mirror by painting a tired vintage find, or by giving a fresh coat of paint to an old one from another room. Mirrors in unconventional shapes or bold colors always make an eye-catching piece.
Add some artwork
Spruce up your bathroom with an art piece that will complement your existing color scheme or design motif. You can hang photos that remind you of the deep blue sea or lovely photographic prints or replicas of masterpieces. If you already have a colorful bathroom, skip the vibrant tones for black and white and welcome the sophisticated allure of sketches. Don’t forget to choose a nice picture frame that’ll protect the piece from the moisture.
Switch your Bath Mat
You know how a delightfully plush mat reminds you of staying at a five-star hotel? It’s because the most luxurious bathrooms all have this in common. An old and dirty bath mat makes your bathroom look unkempt. If you can’t replace it with a Turkish or Persian rugs, at least get a new terry cloth mat so it’ll still look clean. Some even has colors and sophisticated patterns that get even more beautiful as they fade.
Incorporate Flowers and Greenery
It’s amazing how much flowers and a bit of greenery can make any space much prettier and vibrant. It gives a serene and spa-like atmosphere, and perfect for those who go for a bohemian look. It can be a challenge keeping a plant in the bathroom though, especially if there’s no window. Try the snake plant as it can survive in very low light or choose the most realistic looking faux plants.
Consider Changing the Lighting
Changing the lighting can easily transform a plain space. Instead of the usual light bar above the mirror, you can try having pretty sconces on either side. If you have enough space available, you can add a small chandelier or stunning pendant lights. It makes the bathroom look less like a bathroom and more like a place where you’d want to spend time relaxing.
