Adding design elements to spruce up your bathroom is a great way to freshen up your space! From area rugs to bathroom accessories, the details make all the difference. Choosing design elements is a fun way to make your bathroom aesthetic more inviting and personalized.
Follow these tips to improve your bathroom aesthetic!
Add Your Favourite Textiles
Your bedroom doesn’t have to be the coziest space in your house! For example, your bathroom is the space in your home where you get ready and unwind after a long day; it makes sense to spend time making your bathroom an area that you enjoy.
Adding textiles to your bathroom is a great way to make your bathroom cozier! Choose elements that compliment your space. Here are a few examples of materials to add to your bathroom:
- Add a rug. Adding an area rug or a runner will add that pop of colour that you’ve been missing! In addition, adding a colourful rug can add an element of warmth to your space. Whether you choose a solid colour or opt for a bold pattern, a rug can tie your entire bathroom together.
- Hand towels. Depending on the colour palette of your bathroom, choose hand towels that compliment your space. You can draw colours from your rug and shower curtain to choose towels that make your space flow.
Choose the Right Accessories
Accessories are design elements that add to your overall bathroom design aesthetic! Here are a few examples of pieces to add to your space:
- Add a basket or two! Woven baskets are aesthetically pleasing but also offer additional storage. Add folded towels to your baskets to make them easily accessible while optimizing your space.
- Add a candle. Candles add ambience and offer a beautiful scent. They’re available in so many shapes, colours and fragrances that you’re sure to find the right one for your space.
- Choose the right countertop pieces. Keeping your vanity countertop clutter-free is easy when you find the perfect bath accessories! For example, find a matching set that features a toothbrush holder and soap dispenser. Matching sets are a great way to add a simple design element to your countertop while maintaining a neat appearance. In addition, clear canisters make for the perfect storage for makeup brushes and cotton pads. Whether you keep your items on the counter or hidden, staying organized is key to maintaining your overall aesthetic.
- Hang bathroom robes. What’s cozier than putting on your favourite bathrobe? Having a bathrobe on display is a spa-like way to enhance your bathroom aesthetic.
- Find the perfect mirror. There are many different shapes, colours and sizes to consider when choosing a mirror for your space. A good thing to remember is to keep your mirror the same width or smaller than your vanity! If you have a large vanity featuring two sinks, opting for two mirrors can be a great way to utilize your space. In addition, adding a framed mirror such as a light-coloured wood frame can add another layer of design to your bathroom.
- Add plants. Plants help to purify the air and are aesthetically pleasing. Don’t worry if you don’t have a green thumb – there’s a houseplant for everyone!
It’s All About the Details
In addition to textiles and accessories, choosing the perfect lighting and plumbing fixtures is equally as important. From pendant lights to wall sconces, lighting makes all the difference in your bathroom. In addition, your plumbing fixtures including, your tub, shower, and toilet, make up the majority of elements in your bathroom! Ultimately, these objects are the heart of your bathroom space; choosing the right fixtures can enhance your overall design.
