subject: Bathroom Home Improvement Tips [print this page] We spent a fortune decorating our bedrooms and living areas yet one of the busiest rooms in the house if so often overlooked, that is your bathroom. Here are a few simple tips to bring your bathroom bang up to date at very little cost.
Bring your bathroom walls to life with bright color and bold patterns. As most of our cabinets and fittings are a neutral white color, literally, anything goes when it comes to choosing the best color for your room.
This is where you can really let your artistic side take over. Although blues and green hue are popular, mix it up a bit with some designs you either paint yourself or use a pre cut stencil.
The whole look of your bathroom can be greatly improved at very little cost by replacing things such as hinged and knobs on cabinets and drawer and door handles. Just replacing these few pieces will give your room a stunning new look and give a richness to match your new decor.
If you like tiles, make the most of the fantastic colors and designs that are available today. If you don't want the classic placement around the tub, create a design on the walls using smaller tiles in bright colors to create a really eye catching feature.
We all know lighting is important in a room, and our bathrooms really benefit from the correct lighting. It should be intimate without being too dark so look at your existing lighting and, if necessary, add new ones.
If this isn't an option, place your main lighting fixtures on the walls and ceilings to get the rest from your lighting.
If there is room, see about adding an extra window with sheer curtains to let more natural light flood in.
