Does your bathroom feel a bit… ordinary?
You don’t need to spend a fortune to give your bathroom a sophisticated, designer look.
1. Make Things More Fluffier
A plush, rectangular rug in front of the vanity adds an elegant feel. Update your towels to match.
Neutral shades work great for a refined look.
2. Use Dimmable Lights
Harsh, glaring bathroom lights not doing it for you? Install a dimmer switch to control the brightness and create a more intimate mood.
Ambient or hidden lighting, along with wall sconces, can make the space even more tranquil.
3. Use Candles
Scatter candles around the space as you like, and light them for a soothing bath. For more drama, try lanterns – especially if you love rustic decor.
Aromatherapy candles change the atmosphere and boost your sense of calm.
4. Replace Your Showerhead
Installing a rainfall showerhead gives you a much nicer shower experience. You don’t need to spend a lot – budget-friendly options work just as well.
5. Add Some Art
Even though you spend a lot of time in the bathroom, art often gets overlooked. Adding a painting can completely change the look and make the space feel more inviting.
If you’re unsure about DIY, there are guides that show you how to hang pictures properly.
6. Add a Chair or Ottoman
If you have enough space, adding a chair or ottoman is a great idea. It instantly gives your bathroom an elegant, sophisticated feel.
Choose a plush style and add a matching rug.
Think of those movie moments where someone soaks in a warm bath while another person sits nearby and talks for a while. This photo is great inspiration.
7. Add Some Greenery Or Flowers
The bathroom is a great place to add some lush greenery. Any plant you choose will bring color and life to the space.
Plants can thrive longer because of the humidity, but they need enough light – so they’re best in bathrooms with windows. Or, try artificial flowers for a maintenance-free option.
8. Arrange Your Stuff
Is your vanity a mess? The photo shows a DIY project with seriously good organization.
Try similar organizing ideas, or just tidy up and arrange things more artfully. Trays are an easy way to keep everything in order.
9. Bathtub Tray
Ah, the classic bathtub tray! It adds tons of style to your bathroom and is super practical too.
You can build one yourself using online instructions, or buy a pre-made one. Either way, a bathtub tray is a wonderful addition.
10. Put Some Open Shelves
Install open shelves to display your towels in style. This works especially well if you have unused recessed areas in your walls.
