Lighting

Lighting has a significant effect on the overall environment of your bathroom. Proper lighting can make your bathroom look luxurious. It is better to use soft light in the bathroom instead of harsh light. Soft light is helpful to provide the feeling of relaxing to your body and mind.

You can hang a small chandelier to make your bathroom look stylish and cultured. If the light around the mirror is harsh change it and install a soft light. If the fixtures are old, replace them with new and stylish fixtures. There are many types of light fixtures of stylish design that are not so pricey.

Decorating the Wall Tile

If you are bored to look at the same wall tile day after day or if the tile is not attractive, you can make some change by installing removable adhesive tiles that look like real tile and also cheap and easy to cut. Whenever you need you can remove these adhesive tiles too.

You can also bring some changes in the wall of your bathroom by hanging some cool artwork on the wall. The artwork that you are going to hang on the bathroom wall must be water resistant; otherwise, it will get spoiled very soon. An artwork of starfish, jellyfish or cascade, sea or mountain suits best on the bathroom wall.

Updating Hardware

While choosing hardware for the bathroom like cabinet knobs, towel bars, sink faucets, and toilet flush handles etc. try to choose a shiny product. You can upgrade any old décor and make your bathroom look stylish by using yellow brass out for oil-rubbed bronze. Some people like old traditional look but I think sometimes the old traditional bathroom environment degrade your mental condition rather upgrading it.

If you have two bathrooms and you like the traditional old design you can decorate one in traditionally designed hardware and the other with sleek and shiny hardware. To make the updating project easy and trouble-free, choose new hardware with a similarly sized screw hole spacing with the old one.

Decorative Bottle and Jars

Keeping shower gels, shampoos etc. in decorative bottles and jars give a unique look to your bathroom. To easily recognize them, you can level each container.

Space Maximization

If your bathroom is not wide rather congested, you can make it look wide and open by doing little renovations.
