Accessorizing the bathroom is one of the most affordable ways to place a personal stamp upon this room where the big items come with a big price tag and an equally big renovation headache. If you take the time to shop with care and have an attitude toward letting your personality take shape inside this most utilitarian of rooms in your house, you can transform it almost into a centerpiece. Does this Spark an idea?
Mirrors
Mirrors are essential accessories for the bathroom. You use them for shaving, applying makeup and getting an idea of just how effectively your diet is coming along. Mirrors can also be utilized to give the illusion that a cramped bathroom is much bigger.
Linens
Towels and washrags are useful inside the bathroom, but they should also be considered aesthetic accessories. A bathroom just looks cleaner and more attractive when time is taken to carefully accessorize, using matching towels hanging from the shower or on the wall. The colors should ideally match the overall design of the dcor.
Sink Accessories
Accessorizing a bathroom really takes on the personality of its owner when you focus on the toiletry props that will adorn the top of the sink. Go into any just about any store that sells items for the home and you can find toothbrush holders, soap dishes and tissue dispensers that match. More importantly, you can find bathroom accessories that reflect your taste in color or pop culture.
Toilet Seats
Toilet seats are not what they used to be because they have become a bona fide bathroom accessory. Today's toilet seats and toilet seat covers are made in a variety of styles that have transformed them from the merely useful to the truly decorative. You can get toilet seats made in the shape of guitars or pianos as well as those are tabbed so that each person who uses the toilet has their own private seat. Toilet seat covers also are available in an array of styles.
Shower Curtains
Shower curtains have also become an important accessory in the bathroom. If a see-through vinyl curtain is not what you want, you can buy a shower curtain that replays in silhouette the famous shower scene from the movie "Psycho." Curtain dcor ranges from pop culture like this to animal prints to geometric designs.
Privacy Curtains
"Bathroom Idea File" recommends using a curtain as an accessory to compartmentalize a larger bathroom. This accessory can lend some privacy to the toiletry section of the bath while separating it from the shower and tub.
Faucet Fixtures
Faucet fixtures are a good way to accessorize a bathroom by lending it a sense of style. If your faucets are currently mounted to the rim of the sink, consider renovating to allow you to create a greater sense of elegance by installing wall-mounted faucets. If you don't like your current chrome faucets, accessorize to match your desires by replacing with gold, red or black faucets.
Plants
Plants that thrive in humid conditions not only can be used as accessories in the bathroom, but provide much-needed oxygen when you step breathlessly out of a hot shower. Plants can infuse the sterile conditions of the typical bathroom with a sense of life as well.
