You are probably very excited to start decorating your new apartment, but where do you begin? Should you decorate the living room first, so it looks nice when you have guests? What about the bedroom? It’s probably the first thing you see every morning when you wake up, so it would make sense that you want it to look nice. But the best room in your apartment to start decorating is the bathroom.
The reason why the bathroom is the best place to start is that it generally has much less space than the other rooms. By starting with a room that has less space, you will have to spend less money to achieve your desired results, and it will be less intimidating of a task as there is less to do. Decorating your bathroom will allow you to experiment with your style before moving on to the rest of your apartment. There is so much that can be done to decorate your bathroom; read on to find out some of the best tips and tricks for decorating your apartment bathroom.
Display the Products You Use Every Day
You can make your bathroom look nicer simply by displaying the things you use every day in an organized and functional way. The key here is not to clutter your vanity with products but arrange them in a way that utilizes their various colors, shapes, and sizes to create an eye-catching yet functional display. One thing you might try is to use mason jars as storage for your products, like cotton swabs, cotton balls, and bath salts. Using a tissue box cover will also help accent your style and hide whatever box the tissues came in.
Use Your Medicine Cabinet to Organize
Your medicine cabinet is a great tool to help you stay organized and keep things like prescriptions and hygiene products out of sight.
Add a Plant to Your Bathroom
Not only will adding a plant to the bathroom give you a nice pop of color and a focal point for the room, but it can also help reduce humidity. Some plants will thrive in the humid and warm environment of your bathroom and will be a welcome sight when getting ready in the morning. Ferns, cacti, and succulents make great low-maintenance bathroom plants.
Get Some Stackable Containers
One thing that many bathrooms lack is vertical storage. Use some stackable containers to give yourself some extra storage space and keep your things organized. Use these containers to hold your cleaning products, makeup, extra toiletries, and so much more. Extra storage space is always a good thing!
Mirrors Will Make Your Bathroom Feel Bigger
You can put mirrors in your bathroom to add depth, making the space feel larger than it is, and to have an extra place to check out your outfit for the day! Most bathrooms will only have one mirror in them, so think about putting another mirror on the back of the door or a wall adjacent to the one that leady has the mirror.
The Bathroom is a Great Place for Some Art
You can and should use art to help you decorate your bathroom! Art gives the space a personal touch and allows you to incorporate some more colors into your space. Using art that goes along with the rest of your design scheme in the apartment will help make everything feel consistent. Art is a fast way to give life to your bathroom.
Hopefully, these bathroom decorating tips have inspired you to start decorating your bathroom and make the most out of the smallest room in your apartment. Remember to always check with your landlord before making any big changes to your apartment, such as hanging shelves or swapping out shower heads or door handles.
