Painting

Give your bathroom a makeover with a fresh lick of paint.  Choose a colour that you wouldn’t normally choose and consider painting the ceiling too.  Painting the ceiling the same colour as the walls is so much easier as there is no fiddling with masking tape!  Remember to choose the right type of paint for your bathroom as you can now buy paint specially for rooms where there is moisture.

Tiles

Updating your tiles is a great way of giving your bathroom a makeover. From wall to floor tiles can be changed depending on your budget.  If you are unsure of the style you want, then search for inspiration and check out the likes of Standard Tile where you can view a huge variety of designs to meet your budget.

New Towels

Invest in some luxury towels in colours that compliment your new painted walls.  There are so many luxurious towels which have fantastic designs on them.  You could choose ones to compliment your colour scheme or ones that add a splash of colour to an otherwise plain bathroom.  Also, choose a way to display your towels which enhances your bathroom such as a wooden ladder.

Add Accessories

Adding accessories is a great way of updating your bathroom.  This can be vases of complementary colours, storage jars or even greenery such as plants.  You can opt for fake plants if you don’t want the hassle of having to water them!

Add a Mirror

A design trick to make a room look bigger and brighter is to add a large mirror.  Choose one that is large enough for the space you have, it’s a great way of bouncing light around the room and making it feel bright and airy.

Window Treatment

Changing your blinds in your bathroom is another low cost option of giving it a makeover.  There are so many options online from budget ranges with trendy patterns.  Choose a style which suits your needs from roller blinds to Roman blinds.

Storage

Invest in new storage for your bathroom.  Choose items that are practical and stylish.  These can be purchased cheaply online or you could look at preloved websites and get a bargain.  You will want storage that has shelves to hold your toiletries such as hair products, bath products and shower products.  You could choose to make a feature of these too. 

These are just some of the affordable ways to update your bathroom without breaking the bank.  Try one and see how it improves your bathroom.
