Add Decorative Touches
One of the efficient ways to update an older bathroom is to add a few unexpected decorative touches. Adding colorful framed art to a bare wall can add instant character and style to the room. Or, consider installing a curved shower curtain rod, a display of pretty glass or pottery, or a flower arrangement to a wall, windowsill, or on top of the toilet tank.
Layer Textures
Another way to upgrade the feel of your bathroom is to give it some texture. For illustration, utilize baskets to store linens and other bathroom essentials. You could choose matching baskets or pick complementary styles to give even more visual interest. In addition, don’t forget to use cabinets and doors, too! With a simple hook, you can hang a basket over a cabinet or closet door for instant off-the-floor storage space.
Cover Up
If your rental’s bathroom floor is unattractive, why not hide it? A gorgeous rug can help hide ugly flooring and provide you with a soft place to stroll around on bare feet. Alternately, you could even select a vinyl floor cloth, which looks like vinyl flooring but installs like an area rug. Both options are quick to install and easy to remove when you’re willing to try something new.
Natural Beauty
If you’ve got a green thumb or just a love for the outdoors, why not bring a little of it into your bathroom? Try installing some potted houseplants near the tub or in an unoccupied corner for bathrooms with adequate sunlight. Plants will not only enhance the beauty of your area, but they can also freshen the air and make the time spent in your bathroom far more pleasant.
Trendy Storage
Does the spot over your toilet look a little bare? Provide your bathroom an instant upgrade by placing a lovely over-the-toilet shelf unit. There are plenty of different styles to select from, and if you pick one that is freestanding, you don’t have to drill holes in the walls. From wood to polished brass, minimalist modern to ornate traditional, a shelving unit may offer both storage space and a stylish appearance to your rental home’s bathroom. Above all, you can take it with you no matter where you go!
