Decorating a bathroom can be a daunting task, especially the guest bathroom. Sometimes it gets used as a storeroom, so it can quickly become cluttered unless it is used regularly. To make sprucing up your guest bathroom an easier task, have a look at the top 4 creative decorating ideas that will take your aesthetic to the next level.
Small Room
If your guest bathroom is really small, you may want to consider decorating the walls in an off-white colour to create a feeling of peace and give the illusion of space.
Sprucing up the room with a new coat of paint can make a tired little room feel bright and airy again. Another good tip for a small space is to add a large mirror over the sink because big mirrors in small rooms make the room look and feel bigger. If you already have a mirror and want to keep it, consider adding lights around the mirror to create the appearance of light and space. Putting a no-fog mirror in the shower is also a great way to add a little extra to the room.
If you have space on the walls, go large. Oversized items give the illusion of making things feel bigger. Create a focal point by using multiples of a single item, by grouping say three to five pieces together. It can produce a visually stimulating impact. These days, you can buy images that have been split into sections that when pieced and hung together with a small gap between, create one image.
Another way to decorate the walls is by hanging framed inspirational quotes; these look great in black and white. Or, you could add shelves full of beautiful plants. If the sunlight won’t reach this corner of the room, no worries, as you can make use of LED grow lights that work as artificial lights for growing plants indoors.
New Hardware
Maybe you don't fancy painting but want to spruce up the room. You can try adding new hardware to the room. This can be cheap and have an immediate effect on the room. There are many ways of doing this on a budget; for example, you could change the sink faucets, cabinet knobs, towel rail, and toilet flush handle.
Another way to spruce things up is by adding an excellent soap dispenser in the room, maybe changing the shower curtain, adding fluffy towels, and adding a stylish wash-basket. Cheap options can make your bathroom feel different.
You may also want to consider a shower replacement. This is a great way to spruce up the guest bathroom.
Upgrade the Bathroom
A great way to upgrade the guest bathroom is with a shower replacement, or you can go the whole way and completely overhaul the bathroom by adding a completely new shower unit or bath. This can be costly, though, so look around and get quotes.
Once you have chosen your colour palette (neutral colors usually work best on the walls), you can make things interesting by playing around with a variety of shapes, textures, and materials. Think about featuring things like a curved sink or a stand-alone bath or maybe add an eye-catching and stylish vanity.
Extras
When adding the extras, you can let your imagination and eye for style come to the forefront. Have you ever walked into the bathroom in a stylish hotel and gazed around at the little extras, like the fluffy towels hung on the towel rails, the robe folded neatly beside the bath, maybe some comfy slippers, and the little soaps and lotions on the sink and so on? You can also create that luxury feel very quickly by adding the little extra touches. Your guests will love it!
Consider how you can include touches like this into your guest bathroom; even one or two luxury items in the room can make a real difference and help transform it from a functional room into something a bit more special.
It would help if you also considered things like storage. Every room needs storage, so consider if you want units or shelves and how you intend to hang these.
Conclusion
Suppose you are considering decorating your guest bathroom. In that case, you may want to consider neutral tones, especially if the room is small, and add little touches of luxury to the room, get inspiration from the times you have visited hotel bathrooms or even bathrooms in other people's houses. Add a large mirror to the wall and even consider a shower replacement to give the room a fresh new feel.
