Decorate A Family Bathroom







A bathroom does not have to be a bare bones room of your house.


The bathroom is often one of the most neglected rooms in the house. Often with very little space and awkward design, bathrooms do not lend themselves to many fancy decorations. With a little ingenuity, however, a bathroom can be well-designed and a beautiful area of your home.


Instructions


1. Start with a clean slate. Remove all the clutter from your bathroom, including empty shampoo bottles, tiny bits of soap and unused items that no one in your family likes. Clean everything well so you can see exactly what you like and what you do not about your bathroom.








2. Choose a family friendly theme. Find matching shower curtains, floor rugs and toothbrush holders. Whether you decide on a kid-centered theme or a more natural bathroom theme is up to you and your family's tastes.


3. Find creative storage areas. Most bathrooms are notoriously small, making storage difficult. Arrange shelving and shower hooks so that everything you and your family needs is in easy reach. Do not be afraid to try something new, and make the most of every potential storage surface you have, including vertical areas.


4. Pull together your bathroom decor theme with special touches. A bouquet of flowers can brighten any bathroom, and bring a light and airy feel no matter what the theme. Choose plush towels in complementary colors so you feel welcome in your bathroom. Even if your family has a wide variety of tastes, connecting your bathroom theme with the rest of your house is a great way to make the decorations stand out.


5. Have fun decorating your bathroom. If you have unique items that would fit perfectly in your bathroom, go ahead and give them a try. Special pictures and other wall hangings give bathrooms character and transform them from their typical utilitarian style. Let your personality shine through, and your bathroom will be a beautiful addition to your home.
