Mirror
This is one of the most useful items in the bathroom. It is the mirror that we pay attention to first of all when entering the bathroom. An ordinary mirror above the sink can be replaced with a product with a fancy frame, glue seashells to it or paint it with stained glass paints – the main thing is that the decor is in harmony with the chosen interior style.

Accessories for soap
Dispensers, soap dishes and cups for toothbrushes can become useful and stylish decor for the bathroom if you choose containers with an unusual design. Accessories from the same set look especially aesthetically pleasing.
Laundry container
Another practical item that can transform a bathroom. It is worth giving up plastic models, which, despite their high quality, make the furnishings cheaper.
We recommend choosing laundry baskets made of natural materials – vines or textiles, which serve as excellent decor, look noble and expensive. They are equipped with a special removable lining, so caring for the products will not cause difficulties.
Curtain
If there is no shower stall in the house, a special waterproof curtain is required when using the bathtub. When buying it, we do not recommend focusing solely on the price: a more expensive curtain made of high-quality materials will last much longer, will not tear, and will become an excellent decoration.
A bright shower curtain will fit perfectly into a bathroom decorated in neutral tones, but in a bathroom where the decor is colorful tiles, it is better to hang a single-color product.
The photo shows a stylish curtain with the inscription “Shower cabin for everyday use”. The dark color harmoniously echoes the abstract paintings hanging on the wall.
Rug
A textile rug not only ensures safety on a wet floor, but also serves as a decoration for the bathroom if used correctly. Designers do not recommend using “rug-curtain-toilet cover” sets in the interior, which deprive the interior of individuality.
It is best to choose carpets with an original pattern, wicker products, or use hand-made rugs.
Towels
Such a utilitarian thing will easily become a decoration of the bathroom if it fits into its color scheme. Mismatched textiles are the enemy of a stylish interior, so it is worth choosing plain towels. Hanging or folded in a certain way, they can become the highlight of the bathroom.
The photo shows a laconic bathroom, where textiles, as the only decor, act as contrasting spots on a snow-white background. This technique is widely used in the Scandinavian style.
Baskets
Wicker items are always relevant: they make the environment more cozy. Baskets for storing small items can decorate open shelves or hang on the wall, usefully occupy the empty space on the washing machine. Baskets can be bought (it is better not to choose plastic products), woven from newspaper tubes or knitted yourself.
Paintings
This bathroom decor idea may seem strange, but the experience of foreign designers shows that paintings and photographs are used everywhere in bathrooms. The main thing is good ventilation and the absence of paper elements in wet areas.
A more reliable way to protect an image from splashes is to print it on waterproof canvas.
Unusual shelves
Decorative shelves, racks and ladders for drying towels look great in spacious bathrooms and add individuality to the interior. The contents of the shelves can be changed depending on your mood.

Lamps
Beautiful Sconces, original pendants or a luxurious chandelier not only fill the bathroom with light, visually expanding the space, but also serve as its decoration. If the bathroom is small, then the light sources can act as independent decor, without overloading the room.

Flowers
Live plants are a great addition to the bathroom interior, but if there is no window, it is better to limit yourself to artificial analogues. Modern products convincingly imitate live flowers and are called botanical copies. If there is a lot of natural light in the bathroom, plants can be placed on shelves or arranged in hanging pots.

Wall Painting
If you have a penchant for drawing, you can easily update your bathroom with your own hands. Before painting, you need to prepare the surface: level and putty, if necessary, then cover with a primer.
Acrylic paints that are resistant to moisture are suitable for decoration. The background for hand painting should be light – beige, blue or white. After the drawing dries, the bathroom walls should be varnished.
Furniture handles
If you don’t want to overload a laconic bathroom with details, it is enough to replace the standard handles with more original ones. This solution will make the bathroom look more interesting and expensive.
Original hooks
Bright towel hangers or hooks of unusual shape take up little space, but can give the bathroom a fresher and more unusual look. To decorate your bathroom without breaking the bank, you can make the holders yourself: from wood, metal or regular ropes. Some hangers are so functional that they combine a shelf, a mirror and hooks for towels.
Themed bathroom decor
Ships, lifebuoy, anchors, fish – if the marine theme is close to you, then decorative little things will benefit the interior of the bathroom and add character to the atmosphere.
