Bathroom makeover ideas

Spring is the best time to go for a home makeover. Although the bathroom is often the most neglected part in any household, it can indeed add a grand look to the entire house. Choice of colors and use of available space are the two most important things that one must remember while decorating the bathroom. A combination of soft hues and right choice of tiles and mats can add a different look to your toilet. Go for soft colors like shades of pastel, lavender or pink. You can also paint the darkest part of the toilet with a complimenting bright color.

Makeover for Small Bathroom
If you have a small toilet, go for classy toilet makeover ideas. For instance you can use mirrors against the wall to give the bathroom a bigger look. For instance keep a mirror on any particular wall that directly receives light. The wall that is exactly opposite to the mirror should have soft shades of yellow or pink and bright lights. With the reflection of light your bathroom will look grand and big. Do not forget to use dimmers for the lights that are located right next to the mirror. Instead of large sinks that consume a lot of space you may go for cube sinks. The cube sinks leave ample amount of space. In a small toilet cabinets must be maintained at the loft or close to the ceiling. One can also go for giant wash bowls made of porcelain or glass. Such wash bowls can be easily fitted with steel pipes and put on top of a chest of drawers. You may then use the drawers for keeping all the toilet essentials. Instead of a bath tub a small toilet deserves a separate bathing area separated by a long curtain. One can use floral motifs or single colors while choosing such curtains. Instead of the racks use a containers made of cane or jute to keep your bathroom linens and towels. You can maintain hanging wrought iron racks in this area to keep all your toiletries. You may also maintain some scented candles inside your small yet elegant bathroom.

Makeover for Big Bathroom
Lucky you are if you have a spacious bathroom! Go for a simple yet grand makeover for your bathroom. Who would not want to enjoy some personal attention at a relaxing spa? With some imagination, you may have it at your own house all the time! Other than scented candles and aromatic oils your toilet must have scrubbers and moisturizers, if you want it to give that coveted face lift. For curtains use fabrics or materials that can retain heat for a long time. You can also maintain a medicine rack close to the wash basin of the bathroom. Instead of carpet flooring one can also opt for tiles or mosaics when it comes to decorating your bathroom. One can use two complimentary colours for the walls. The lighter shades must get enough light while the brighter ones can be used for painting the darker areas of the toilet. Give your toilet a designer look by keeping false plastic plants or a magazine holder attached to the main door Judicious use of light along with smart use of accessories can indeed make your toilet a relaxing venue.
