Hang the shelves
Bottles of shampoos and shower gels, placed along the sides of the bathtub, reduce the cost of the interior and create a mess. Get rid of expired care products, and put away the necessary, but rarely used, in a closed cabinet.
For leftover items, choose unusual shelves made from treated wood or metal. You can make them yourself or replace them with rails with baskets.
If you want to personalize your bathroom, avoid pre-made plastic shelves and standard chrome pieces. Contrasting black designs, copper and glass are in fashion.
Buy another curtain
Another effective way to update a bathroom, spending a minimum of money and effort is to purchase beautiful shower curtain... The fact is that the curtain takes up a considerable part of the bathroom, especially the compact one, therefore it immediately attracts attention.
But if you want it to be as inconspicuous as possible, get a solid color product in the color of the walls. In a laconic bathroom, you can use a curtain with geometric patterns.
Putting the little things in the baskets
Miscellaneous care packages, cosmetics and children's toys litter small bathroomcreating visual noise. Because of this, the room looks untidy.
A budget way to get an interior "off the cover" - arrange small things in containers: opaque containers, baskets or fabric boxes. They can be hung on a wall, placed on a shelf or on a washing machine. Also, the products will help to put things in order inside the bedside table.
Add plants
The idea does not seem feasible, especially for owners of a bathroom without a window. But if you love flowers, choose shade-loving plants and leave them in the bath for a short time, or provide the furnishings with special supplementary lamps.
Another way to "green" the bathroom is to hang or put fakes (artificial plants). Modern botanical copies look like living plantings and are actively used as decoration.
Putting a homemade rug
This transformation will not require special costs if you use the materials at hand to create the rug: old T-shirts, jeans, wine corks, wooden slats or even bags. Give the interior a coziness due to hand-made, and individuality due to an exclusive product.
The mat of the right size will hide the imperfections and defects of the floor tiles. How to make a rug yourself, read here.
Change sink accessories
A glass for toothbrushes, a dispenser and a soap dish - if you can see assorted plastic items with scratched or yellowed edges, this will not add to the beauty of the bathroom.
Choose accessories from one set, suitable for the style of the interior, because even such little things can set the mood for the whole environment.
Decorate the wall with stickers
The option is suitable for those who want to add decorative details to a laconic bathroom, but are not afraid to overload the room. Also, this technique will help to hide single tile defects: optimal for a rented apartment, in the improvement of which you do not want to invest much money.
Avoid the typical dolphin and fruit designs - patterns are trending in patchwork style, geometric ornaments, minimalism.
Add light
In most Russian apartments there is no window in the bathroom, the maximum is a window opening between the kitchen and the bathroom. A compact bathroom can be expanded visually by adding light.
In order not to spend money on wiring and new lamps, you can change the shade and light bulb: see if you need diffusing light to get rid of harsh shadows on your face, or should you add brightness? Or maybe you should play with the color temperature and make the lighting warmer (or colder)?
Change towels
If you keep towels in the bathroom, pay attention to their color and location. Aesthetic monochromatic products in the color of the interior can become part of the decor - for this it is worth purchasing the same or matching sets.
The bathroom looks much more attractive, where towels are hung on crossbars, and not on hooks, or rolled up and laid out on shelves.
Pick up a new mirror
The only object is able to transform the interior in a matter of minutes, and the center of attraction does an excellent job with this - mirror... It can become the main highlight of the interior and overshadow the imperfections of the environment.
Sometimes it is worth choosing a large mirror sheet instead of a small one in order to maximize the space, or find an unusual product with a carved frame.
These tips will help you improve your bathroom effortlessly and cost-effectively. Combine several techniques to transform the bathroom into one of the coziest places in the apartment.
