A beautiful bathroom helps you begin and end your days in luxury and
comfort.
Make this important room into a personal retreat.
Most of us think about bathrooms in terms of function. And that’s the
first need! In addition, consider your bathroom as a room of beauty and
comfort! It’s not hard to change a drab bathroom into a luxurious cocoon.
For a calm, serene look and feel, use neutral colors, like white or
off-white. If you’re looking for energy, select bold and bright colors, and
consider coordinating an en-suite bathroom color scheme with the bedroom color.
Some obvious places to start your bathroom plan are:
·
A paint
color that makes you feel pampered
·
An elegant
vanity, maybe even a vintage table that’s repurposed
·
New
countertops, backsplashes and sinks
·
Updated
hardware, including faucets, pulls and handles, available in a variety of styles and finishes
·
Beautiful
framed mirrors, instead of frameless wall-to-wall mirrors
·
Layered
lighting that’s beautiful AND functional, and maybe even a skylight to
bring in natural light
Redoing the shower or tub is a bigger project, but how much fun to
create a luxurious bathing experience. This is a good place to spurge on
finishes and hardware since you'll enjoy them every day of the year.
Function is also key when updating a bathroom.
·
Use
slip-resistant flooring.
·
Select
finishes that are easy to clean and resistant to water, especially if you live
in a humid environment.
·
Plan for as
much storage as you need, so the bathroom never looks cluttered.
·
Include
plenty of towel racks, so towels are easy to reach and have a chance to dry.
·
If you have
space, include a place to sit, whether it’s a built-in bench or a movable chair
or stool.
Are you ready to have a luxurious new retreat in your home? Focus on
remodeling your bathroom this season!
