4 Simple yet Stylish Additions to Your Bathroom


Your bathroom may be one of the smallest rooms in your home but it is sure to be one that gets plenty of visits and judging looks from any guest to your home. It is very easy to play it safe with your bathroom in order to make sure that it is easy to clean and doesn’t offend any visiting eyes but that could leave it a little dull and not homely in the slightest. The good news is though that with a few simple additions you can bring your bathroom to life and it doesn’t have to be anything drastic.

The bathroom may be forgotten about when it comes to home improvements but with these quick fixes you can create a stylish space in next to no time and switch your focus to some of your more preferred rooms.

Mirrors
You may not feel like you want to see yourself every time you step out of the bath but mirrors can really make a space look bigger than it is. With a room that is often only just big enough to house the shower, sink and toilet; it is important to create the illusion of extra space. Grouping smaller mirrors together is also a great way to create a focal point in the room and will help to reflect the light so that it’s not too dingy.

Splashes of Colour
The vast majority of bathrooms are coloured uniformly in white and subtle blues with features such as a bath to match and this is understandable as it is easy to clean and looks understated. However in order to add brightness and character to your room you could try some sporadic splashes of colour. This will mean it’s not too overbearing and will draw your attention to different areas. Consider shelves in bright colours or storage units with brightly coloured exteriors.

Heated Towel Rail
Towels don’t look great draped over the side of your bath or hung up on the back of the door and they always seem to still be wet when you want to use them next. To avoid this you could try storing them in a heated unit such as a towel rail or heated shelves. Some of the best heated towel rails on the market will have a towel radiator for you to hang you wet towels underneath heated shelving space to store your beautifully dry ones ready for when you need them.

Smarten Up Your Toiletries
Most people tend to store their toiletries around the edge of their bath or dotted around the sink but this tends to look a little shabby and untidy. Grouping them together and maybe even buying them in matching colours is a great way to tidy your bathroom up. Try not to have more than one of the same type of toiletry out either as this causes unnecessary clutter. Don’t be afraid to display them though. Small baskets and open fronted shelving units are a great way to present your toiletries and will let visitors see the wealth of options available to them.
