50 cheap and chic ways to perk up your bathroom

Giving your bathroom a facelift doesn’t have to break the bank. In fact, you can do it on a dime, without compromising style. Here are 50 cheap and chic ways to update one of the most used rooms in the house.

1 Repaint – nothing perks up a room like a fresh coat of paint.

2 Invest in new towels to replace any that are looking worse for wear.

3 If you’re running out of space to store toiletries, keep the overflow in a rustic wooden bowl or wicker basket.

4 Declutter. Clearing off the surface of your bathroom counter does wonders for making the room look fresh and clean.

5 Install new faucets for a quick upgrade.

6 Add fresh flowers.

7 Opt for colourful towels if your bathroom walls are a neutral colour.

8 Play with patterns without having to turn to wallpaper or a new paint job with inexpensive wall decals.

9 Floating candles in a glass bowl on the counter add warmth.

10 Toiletries in beautiful packaging can go a long way to pretty up your counter.

11 Replace your shower curtain.

12 Place a tall vase filled with dried flowers on the floor for some rustic charm.

13 Incense in an ornate holder is functional and decorative.

14 Line the counter with matching accessories (toothbrush holder, soap dispenser) ideally from the same line, for a uniform look.

15 Install a floating shelf above the toilet and line with small plants that don’t require a lot of light.

16 Shampoo, conditioner and soap dispensers eliminate clutter around the tub.
