You would not believe the effect your bathroom plays on your everyday life. If you are anything like us, you start every morning in the bathroom, and you end every day in the bathroom, whether that is getting yourself ready for the day or taking that warm bath at the end of a good night. Here are some simple but effective ways to add some character to your bathroom. If you need to start from scratch, visit here.
Play Around with Lighting, Painting & Tiles
Deciding between bright lighting for makeup, or dim lighting for mood, lighting plays an important role. Dimmer lights are a great option if you want the best of both worlds. You can also choose interesting light fixtures to add some flair to your bathroom.
The color scheme you choose for your paint can greatly influence how you feel when you are using it. A contemporary white may be a great option for that clean, modern look or a passionate dark red for that romantic atmosphere.
If you are considering a bathroom renovation, tiling is a great way to add some character. Before being dead set on the all-white all marble option, look through all the different patterns and play around with different ideas for your floor, or perhaps your tub. Call us to see our selection of ceramic tiles.
These three elements, when woven together, can add value not only in your life but to your home as well. And who doesn’t want their house to be worth more?

Add Storage
Think about the way you want to store your toiletries and bathroom essentials, whether that is baskets, or cabinets, trunks or hangers. Wall shelving is a great way to effectively store lots of things without taking up much space. Low and high hangers come in various designs that all hang towels so you can play around with some fun ideas. If you need more efficient bathroom storage ideas, check out our latest guide.
Add Small or Unexpected Touches
Since the restroom is one of the smallest rooms in a home, you cannot add too much to the room, or it will be overcrowded and chaotic. Instead, you are going to add small or unexpected touches to the room. These touches can be small decorations, decorated towels, scented air fresheners and other items.
Do Not Forget to Decorate
Just because your bathroom is not the largest room, that does not mean you have to skip out on the decorations. You can still add paintings, photos, plants, and other small decorations that can fit on your vanity. If you are shopping online, you should be able to filter out or search bathroom/restroom decorations.
Incorporate Humor
Let’s be honest — bathrooms are full of restroom humor. Bodily functions can be humorous to many people. And the restroom is the perfect room to play around. Most of the time, the best way to incorporate humor is through decorations like painting, photos, signs and other items that hang. If you want a handmade bathroom humor item, we recommend checking out Etsy’s collection.
Add Plants
Bring life into your restroom with assorted plants. Plants are perfect for this room to help filter the air and brighten up a bland space. We recommend having plants in this room as long as you have a window to let in some natural light. If you need help discovering how to take care of plants indoors, check out this guide.
