1. Use light.  Bright colors will create the illusion of space even in the smallest of spaces (which many bathrooms are).

 

2. Change the light fixtures, as the right type of lighting can make a huge difference to any bathroom.

 

3. Why not consider replacing the taps to your bath and sinks.  Just by replacing the tired, old looking taps to your bath, you will give it a completely different look, and it's an inexpensive way of updating an old room.

 

4. Instead of buying a new shower curtain, why not instead choose to use a regular curtain.  This can be hung from a tension rod and backed with a shower curtain liner.  Such liners come in a variety of colors and are inexpensive to buy.

 

5. Get a few candles. Not only are they attractive, but they instantly add warmth (even when not lit to a space).  Also, there is so much variety of colors, shapes and sizes of candles available, that I think you will find it difficult to choose exactly what you want.  But it is best if you buy ones which will co-ordinate with the decor of your bathroom.  Plus, add a few bars of scented soap and your bathroom will soon feel warm and luxurious.

 

In fact, before long by using the tips provided above, your bathroom will look fresh and bright.  Not only this, but you will know just how easy it is to do and how inexpensive it is.  Soon you will be ready to start decorating another room in your home!

1. A good thing to do before your start redecorating your room is to de-clutter.  Unfortunately, many of us tend to use our bedrooms as dumping grounds because they are away from the public eye.  So put any items that you don't need away in labeled boxes and store them either under the bed, in a closet or the garage or loft.
