31 Ways To Improve Your Bathroom On A Budget
If you’re planning on sprucing up your bathroom, but you’re not flushed with cash, there are lots of little improvements you can make that won’t cost very much. From decorative touches here and there to low-cost alterations, let’s take a look at some cost-effective ways to get your bathroom looking great.
1. Give your bathroom a lick of paint – it won’t cost much, and it will make the whole room look much brighter and fresher.
2. If you have a wooden floor, sand it down and re-varnish it — or paint it another color entirely.
3. Declutter surfaces to make the room look bigger — put toiletries into cupboards or invest in some storage units below the sink.
4. Buy some new towels – choose colors that coordinate with your walls or bathroom furniture.
5. Shower baths can free up valuable space and cost less than you think.
6. Add a glass bowl with floating candles in it (if you have room) to add warmth.
7. Put some hooks on the back of your bathroom door for towels, or for your clothing while you’re in the shower or bath.
8. Fill a glass jar or container with brightly colored glass beads – or shells you have collected.

10. If you have children, avoid clutter by assigning them their own pretty storage basket.
11. Replace your shower curtain.

13. Add some artwork if you have enough space, but be careful if your bathroom gets very steamy.
14. Change the knobs or handles on any cupboards or cabinets – you can find some very pretty ones online.
15. Tile the countertop around the sink – you can opt for a bright color to liven the room up or mix and match different colors.
16. Change a traditional square or rectangular bathroom for a corner one to free up space.
17. For a quirky look, make your own wallpaper using pages from vintage magazines by just pasting them to the walls.
18. Swap a traditional opening door for a sliding one – then you can use the space behind the door for a shelf.
