Bathroom remodels are one of the most popular home improvement projects. If your budget doesn’t allow for a complete bathroom re-do this year, consider some redecorating to give it a fresh new look. Although many people don’t think of bathroom decoration as being quite as important as the places like the living room, it’s still one of the most used rooms in the home. Beautifying your bathroom can offer a guest with a better impression of your overall home. Because the bathroom is usually small, redecorating can be easy and inexpensive.
Paint: By adding a different color to the walls, you can change the entire mood of the room. Lighter colors can make a small space look bigger, while brighter colors add a shot of energy every time someone walks in.
Organization: Clutter is often a problem in bathrooms, since they store so much of what we use for day-to-day hygiene, but there are many creative options available for storage. Serving trays can be used under the vanity for rarely-used toiletries, and baskets are great for storing spare towels, toilet paper, or cleaning supplies. Bath and hand towels can serve as decoration, too, through the use of strategically-placed hooks instead of the usual towel bars.
Style and Utility: Small bathrooms can be a challenge to allow for both function and fashion. Shower curtains can provide a splash of color while keeping water splashes in the tub. Even fabric shower curtains are an option with the assistance of plastic liners. Bath mats come in a variety of colors and shapes, making it simple to spruce the floor up while providing water absorption and warmth for bare feet. Coordinated towels add a final touch, especially since they’ll be used almost every time someone uses the room.
Aroma: The scent of a room goes a long way towards its overall feel. A pleasant aroma will be a nice surprise for guests. You have a wide range of choices, from pug-ins to scented crystals to diffused oils.
With a little extra effort, this small room can be a source of comfort or refreshment to guest and homeowner alike. At Iron River Construction, we’re interested in helping Minnesota homeowners get more enjoyment out of their homes.
