Spicing up your bathroom
Take a Look around our websites for information on remodeling your bathroom.....Completely remodelling a bathroom can be a long an expensive process, and not the best option for your circumstances. For those looking to spice up their bathrooms there are a number of tips to achieve this, even with minimal budgets.
Tip One: Repaint your bathroom
Repainting an old bathroom really does make a huge difference and can dramatically awaken and old and dull space. Choosing a colour scheme or theme is a great way to go. Some examples may be red/white, blue/white, blue/green, the options really are endless.
Ensure you cover all the floors, ceramics, mirrors and other parts of the bathroom that will not be painted. You can use sheets, tarp or even newspaper to cover these items to ensure the paint does not splash or drip onto them. Use of masking tape (or other painters tapes) can also be used to ensure paint does not end up on skirting boards or the ceiling.
Tip Two: Accessorize your bathroom
New and exciting accessories can be brought for varying budgets and be chosen to suit any bathroom. If you have an existing bathroom colour scheme then choose accessories which suit the colour scheme and go with the age period (older or modern). If the bathroom has no real theme, try and match the accessories to the rest of the house or even the outdoor area. There are also many functional accessories that can be great and useful additions to any bathroom. Examples of accessories are:
- Vases – With fresh or fake flowers
- A bowl – This could be a modern ceramic or classic design. The bowl can hose ornamental soaps, dried flowers, stones/pedals or even marbles.
- Ornaments – Ornaments such as fish can really spice up a themed bathroom. Be sure to fasten them in place with a non abrasive adhesive.
- Framed photos – Are a great way to add colour and image to a dull bathroom. A cheap frame with an image from a calendar is a cheap option whilst artistic pieces can cater to any budget.
Tip Three: A small renovation
By choosing one item in the bathroom such as a bath, shower, toilet or vanity unit you really can spice up a bathroom. Replacing an existing item will require limited or no plumbing work and will create a new look for the bathroom.
There really are a whole heap of options to suit any budget when it comes to spicing up your bathroom. People often ask should I remodel my bathroom and never consider making smaller improvements.
