Bathroom Hacks: Cheap Ways To Make Your Bathroom Look Elegant

Your bathroom deserves some royal treatment. It’s the room that shows the most wear and tear out of all rooms since it’s used by everyone in your home. It’s also the room that your guests will see, so that’s even more reason to give it, not only a presentable look, but also an elegant look.

You might think your bathroom is a hopeless case, but we’ve got some easy hacks for you that will make it look not just look nicer but also more expensive. So it’s time to hack into some of these hacks.

1. Mirror

That old worn out mirror is a dead giveaway that the bathroom is anything but elegant. A large framed mirror will immediately give a more sophisticated look as well as create the illusion of more space and more light. When hung horizontally, you can avoid being particular in measurements than when vertically hung. A weathered wooden frame can be a nice choice and suits almost any bathroom. For a more minimalist look, you might prefer to go frameless which often works better in contemporary styled bathrooms or homes.

2. Rugs

Renovating the entire floor is pricey, and if you’re not doing an entire renovation or building from scratch, then change flimsy mats to more plush ones that will add more glamour.

3. Faucets

You might want to replace shiny, chrome shower heads and taps for newer looking designs and colors that give a less clinical look to a bathroom. The choices are abundant, so start viewing different types at Showersly where you’ll also find sinks and tubs and other up to date bathroom essentials that are functional as well as appealing.

4. Lighting

Lots of people don’t realize that bathrooms really no longer look like bathrooms, but have a softer look to them than what we’ve been always used to. The lighting plays a big role to achieve that look, where softer lights are used, plus using wall fixtures. You can place wall scones on either side of a mirror, instead of that dangling light bulb or neon light in the middle of the ceiling.

5. Trash can

Unless you’re living in a hotel, don’t use a plastic bag to line the trash can. That looks very commercial plus we know plastic is harmful to the environment. You can get a good metal one or a pretty plastic one that is washable.

6. Furniture pieces

Furniture pieces from inside your home add an interesting aspect to a bathroom. Maybe you have a silver tray to fold guest towels on or a certain piece of artwork or antique to showcase on a bathroom shelf. Choosing pieces depends on the overall theme.

Carry On

Take a close look at your bathroom and you’ll find several issues that are easily solved. Simple details such as using towel hooks instead of bars look neater and dry towels better than having an unfolded towel placed sloppily on the bar. Soap dispensers instead of gooey bars of soap also add a touch of class. It’s really not so difficult or expensive to show off your bathroom and keep it in tiptop condition.
