The bathroom is a popular room. Some homes have more bathrooms than bedrooms. Most people notice the major items such as the shower, tub and vanity. The small accessories are important also. We take them for granted but the little things can make a bigger impact than most think.
What would your bathroom look like without a soap dish, shower curtain, or towel rack. It would be pretty dysfunctional yet we rarely give these items a second thought. Usually we make sure they match in color and that’s about it. If you want to give your bathroom a face lift, considering upgrading these small accessories.
Since we spend a lot of time in the bathroom, we should make it as comfortable and as enjoyable as possible. Just like you spend money to have your bedspreads and pillows and curtains match in your bedroom, you should spend the time and money to have good accessories in your bathroom.
An upgrade faucet for your sink may cost you about $50 to $75, but could be the piece that draws all eyes to your bathroom. Everyone who visits will be talking about your new remodeled bath room. It can even make your home more marketable when you try to sell it.
The shower curtain is really the biggest thing that you see in a bathroom, but I think that it gets the least attention. Instead of the basic plastic curtain try a fabric shower curtain with a liner. It will give your bathroom a touch of class.
There are alternatives to the traditional shower curtain called hookless shower curtains. Hookless shower curtains can take on many different forms. There are snap on curtains that fold over the curtain rod and snap together. Another type of curtain has large holes that the rod goes through. The curtain top accordions back and forth on the rail. Cloth ties can replace hooks. This can give your bathroom a very ‘homey’ and country look.
Since the shower curtain is the biggest item in your bathroom, everything else in the bathroom should be bought to match your shower curtain. Don’t just settle for one plain color, be creative, be exciting, make your bathroom sparkle. Take a look at your bathroom and take inventory of the small items that you can change to make an upgrade. You may find that for a small bit of money you can have a bathroom that looks new.
It’s not hard to liven up your bathroom without spending a lot of money. Make the most of what you already have by using a curved curtain rod and increase your space. If you’re tired of the same old thing for shower curtains, try a new twist which also can make hanging a curtain easier – try a hookless shower curtain rod and stop fighting with the curtain hooks.
