5 DIY bathroom updates that make a difference
Whether you’re keeping up with ever-changing
trends or your space simply needs a refresh, updating yourbathroomcanbetime-
consuming and expensive — but it doesn’t have to be. With just a few minor
tweaks, you can add style and function to your space without a total overhaul.
So if you don’t have the budget or the time for a bathroom renovation, don’t give up hope. It’s completely possible to refresh the look of your space with minimal effort. Simply use what you already have and start em- bellishing.
Here are a few quick and easy ideas you can do in less than a weekend’s time.
UPGRADE YOUR SHOWER
Take your shower from standard to luxurious. Switch- ing your shower head is an easy upgrade that doesn’t require any plumbing. New- er shower head options have multiple functions that adjust to work for everyone — from little ones to pets.
CHANGE YOUR TOILET SEAT
Simply swapping out the smaller features in your bathroom can make all the difference. You can have fun with your choices and add a lot of personality to the space.
“Changing your toilet seat is an easy way to upgrade the feel of your bathroom,” says Jill Seidner, owner of Jill Seidner Interior Design in Los Angeles. “Benton seats are easy to install, making for a simple weekend DIY proj- ect that gives your bathroom a fresh look.”
Mixing metals can help add interest, and the matte black hinges of the seat act as an anchor to balance brighter finish tones like gold or silver and complement brushed nickel.
DESIGNATE A PLANT SHELF
In a small, humid space like a bathroom, many house- plants can thrive. Try pot- ting aloe, azaleas or ferns to create your own mini arbo- retum. The greenery adds a natural pop of color and con- tributes a relaxing ambiance to your space.
CHANGE THE MOOD WITH WALL COLOR
Never underestimate the power of a fresh coat of paint. For a spa-like space, try a light neutral shade, or go for bold style with a bright accent wall. Look for an anti-mildew paint for less maintenance over time and use a low sheen to keep imperfection at a minimum.
If you’re feeling even more adventurous, opt for a bold printed wallpaper
