No matter how much you deny, but you end up spending more time in your bathroom than you are proud of. Most people tend to overlook doing their bathroom well, but psychologically speaking, your bathroom can have a huge impact on your mental state.
Even though we wish we were blessed with a huge bathroom spacious enough to accommodate bathtubs and separate shower area and extra vanity, but thanks to the population in India, not all of us have the privilege of large bathrooms.
Also, bathroom renovations can cost a bomb and with the ongoing scenario, splurging on your bathroom does not seem like the most sensible idea either.
Nonetheless, small bathrooms can be spruced up according to your liking and with just a few design and décor elements, you can transform your small bathroom into an aesthetically pleasing space of your space along while making it more functional.
Here are a few cost-effective tips and tricks to glam up your small bathroom without too much money, effort, and energy.
1. Monochrome tone
Never underestimate the magic that monochrome tones can create in an enclosed space. The idea is to pick one color tone for the entire bathroom.
Now, the real deal comes when you know how to play with slightly different shades of the same tone and execute it in your wall paint, flooring, ceiling, basins, pipes, mirrors, door, wallpaper, and even the WBC.
Picking one color and creates a tonal look which is a visual delight, a trending design element and you can always add the complementing décor pieces to bind it all together.
2. Plants
If you haven’t already entered the green party for your interiors, its time you do it. Gone are the days where plants were limited to gardens and porches. Greens have come inside the house and are giving life to your interiors like a dream.
You can choose from real plants or artificial green according to your vibe or the efforts you will take to maintain them. Shades of green add an effervescent touch to the entire bathroom and will make it livelier than usual.
It is important to remove the stale air from your bathroom to avoid the humidity or any growth or unwanted bacteria too. You can go with a huge potted plant or just stick to a little one by the mirror, either of them will work the same and are also easily available.
3. Metallic
Metallic décor pieces have picked up in the market off-lately. They can make space look fancier and more polished in no time.
You can add absolutely anything metallic with a shade of silver, copper, and gold or rose gold as per the theme and it will blend beautifully with your entire theme and design.
The best part is you can decide on metallic addition either on a small soap dish or a laundry basket, a dustbin, a cloth hanger, or even a plant pot.
4. Shelf/Organizer/Stand
If your bathroom does not have a lot of space, you might want to stay clear of the clutter. We are not asking you to throw your toiletries out, but find a way to store them in the bathroom without making it look shabby and cluttered.
Make the most of your space by installing a shelf, an organizer, or even a stand-in places like below your sink, under the mirror, or even beside your door. Optimal utilization of space while making sure all your bathroom essentials are stored perfectly will solve half your problem.
5. Rev up the flooring
It would be an understatement to say that flooring can make a huge difference to your bathroom or rather any room. You can pick a design for the floor and it becomes your focal point to put together the whole décor and the theme of the bathroom.
This is why when you renovate your bathroom, changing the flooring can transform the whole look of it. But the whole process of removing and putting up new tiles can be a daunting and expensive task.
This is why you can go ahead with the peel and stick tiles option where you can easily peel and stick the tile print or design of your choice and it will look just as new.
6. Play with colors
It is honestly so surprising that just the presence of a few colors can instantly make a huge difference to your space. By colors, we do not mean the wall paint but simple little additions of the pop of colors can transcend the whole look of the bathroom together.
Adding a few bright solid colors in the sink, the mirror, or even the toothbrush holder with just a simple white background will give a characteristic to the bathroom.
When you wish to change the look, you can simply alter these colors to different shades and you will get a whole new look without spending too much money or time doing it.
7. Ladders
Ladder storage has become a huge deal in the interior design market, especially for the bathroom in recent times. People are opting for a more raw and yet organized look with the ladders in their bathrooms.
Moving away from the conventional drawers and storage options, ladders are mounted against the wall and are used as regular bathroom shelves for storage. You can out your clothes, towels, toiletries, plants, and absolutely anything you like on these ladders.
8. Minimal accents
Minimalism is the new rage for your lifestyle, and even for the interiors. Many people like to store minimum things inside the bathroom to make space look more extensive.
Try and keeping minimal but attractive chic furnishings inside the bathroom like a basket, metallic mirror, single storage, or something like.
These minimal accents make the space more elegant, welcoming, and stylish all at one go.
9. Mirror play
Mirrors can make space appear enlarged with their reflection play. Interior designers use this technique a lot to make a smaller space look and feel big.
Another thing to be kept in mind is choose a lighter shade of wall color if you are going to add huge mirrors in the bathroom as it reflects the light better, making it look more natural and welcoming.
10. Highlight the fixtures
Lastly, highlighting your fixtures can make a dramatic difference in your bathroom. If you go ahead with a single tone for fixtures like black, white, metallic, or any single color, it will add the much-needed contrast.
Be it your knobs, faucet, shower, taps, or any other accessories; drawing a single tone to them makes the bathroom appear more polished and revamped.
