If you are tired of your dull home interior, then the time has come for you to make some changes. Our homes are where we need to feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. Why not start redecorating a room that you and your family frequent the most – the bathroom. The best thing about a bathroom remodel is that the whole family can take part in it. To help you turn your old and boring bathroom into a beautiful, cozy one, we have prepared a couple of awesome tips and tricks for you to follow.
1. Tiles
Tiles are easy to install and can add a lot of flair to your bathroom. The only thing that you need to consider before installing them is whether you will be going for function over aesthetics, or vice versa. If you choose to install tiles so that they only serve a function and are cost-efficient, then you should place them around your windows, bathtub or shower, and on the floor as well. On the other hand, if you go for looks, you can browse countless styles and colors until you find the ones which best suit your needs. Tiles will create a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere in your bathroom.
2. DIY bathroom design

If you don’t want to spend too much money on your new bathroom, you can apply your DIY skills and add your personal touch to the design. First of all, make sure that you have all the necessary tools and materials before you start working. We recommend turning old mason jars into cool shampoo and shower product holders. Not only do they look great, but they also help you protect the environment. Another great idea is to turn your old weaved baskets into towel holders or clothing hampers. Additionally, you should consider turning all your plastic cups into toothbrush holders.
3. Paint

Painting a bathroom is a great and cheap way to make it look amazing. First of all, you have to choose a color. You can have a family discussion on this topic and choose one which everyone will love. It is of the utmost importance that you use acrylic colors because they help keep the bathroom walls safe from mold and moisture damage. Make sure to experiment with various bathroom colors and styles until you find the perfect one. To make your bathroom really shine with style – paint a mural.
4. Wallpapers

Wallpapers are a great alternative to painting your bathroom, but they can also be combined to create a unique design. Wallpapers can additionally help you protect your bathroom walls from moisture. Using wallpapers in the bathroom can help you make a theme. For example, you can buy wallpapers with pictures of trees and turn the bathroom into a forest. Ask you your children if they would like to place some cartoon wallpapers in the bathroom, like SpongeBob or the Little Mermaid.
5. Add more storage space
Bathrooms can easily get cramped if you don’t place some storage inside. The best way to do so is to buy a dresser which can easily fit into any bathroom and can serve many purposes. These dressers can incorporate a sink, storage space for your towels, clothes, hairdryers, and other products and items that you use daily in the bathroom. These dressers can add a lot of style to the bathroom as well.
6. Additional accessories

You can never have enough bathroom accessories. They can add the final touch to your newly designed bathroom. If you have a spacious bathroom, you can add chic vases and flower pots if you like. Make sure to check which plants thrive in humid bathroom conditions. The most common bathroom plant is Aloe Vera. It is loaded with minerals, vitamins and is particularly known for having incredible healing properties. Mirrors represent another great bathroom accessory. By adding them, you will make your bathroom look more spacious. The best part is that they come in all shapes and sizes.
7. A new bath or shower
If you have an old bathtub, then you should consider buying a new one. If you don’t want to spend a lot of money, you can always try to repair it. Open showers have become a hit this season since they make the bathroom look more elegant, and add a lot of space to it as well. For the most soothing and comfortable bathing experience, we recommend opting for a freestanding bath. Its sophisticated design will add elegance to the bathroom.
As we can see, it doesn’t take much effort to renovate an old bathroom and to turn into a room where your guests and family can feel relaxed and comfy. All it takes is some imagination and some DIY skills to create a customized, unique bathroom design.
