A bathroom adds a considerable amount of value to your home. Designing your bathroom doesn't have to leave you broke. There are plenty of fresh and tasteful updates you can do to your bathroom to create a relaxing oasis on a budget.
Curved Shower Rod
A curved shower rod costs about $60 to $100 at a department or discount store. These shower rods will give a spa feel to your home. You can also purchase a double curved shower rod. This will allow you to have a liner on one rod and a shower curtain on another rod. The nice thing about arched shower curtain rods is that they keep the from closing in on you while you are taking a shower. Many upscale hotels and spas feature curved shower rods in their bathrooms. This is an inexpensive update you can make to your bathroom that will leave you feeling like you are in your own private spa.
Paint an Accent Wall
Painting an accent wall in your bathroom is an easy way to update tired bathroom walls. Choose an intense color that is complimentary to your shower curtain to really pull your bathroom's look together. Add a small framed mirror or framed artwork to the accent wall to draw attention to it. Make sure the other walls in your bathroom are a neutral color that compliments the accent wall. You don't want too much bold coloring in your bathroom, as that could potentially overwhelm a small space and make it feel a lot smaller than it is.
Vinyl Tiles
Vinyl tiles are an inexpensive flooring solution that is perfect for a budget bathroom renovation. Many types of vinyl tiles look like expensive marble and ceramic tiles. Installing vinyl tiles is a lot simpler than installing other types of tile as no grout and compound is needed.
Choosing a peel and stick option makes installation even easier. First, prepare your floors by washing them and allowing them to completely dry. Then, lay out your tiles. Your floor layout won't be perfect, so it will be necessary to cut certain pieces of tile to fit. Cut the tile that is in areas that aren't as noticeable such as behind the toilet and on the edge of cabinets.
Once you are satisfied with the layout and have all tiles cut that need to be cut, you can proceed and peel the backing off one tile at a time and apply the tiles to your floors. Make sure to keep your lines straight and don't allow gaps between tiles.
