If you have gotten the sudden urge to renovate your bathroom, you might be hesitant about your budget for this spur-of-the-moment desire. The unfortunate thing about most bathroom renovations is that it can be quite costly and without prior planning and budgeting for this endeavor, you probably won’t have the funds for it. But our team from Andre Kitchen and Bath is here to let you in on a little secret- affordable bathroom updates! These will allow you to keep much of your original space while making it look and feel like a whole new room.
Mirrors
Typically, you will have a mirror that spans the length of your vanity and is either a rectangle or square. Most often, it is secured to the wall and stays there forever, with nothing particularly interesting about it. But your mirror is something that everyone entering your bathroom uses, no matter what their original purpose was for going in there. Which means that you shouldn’t have to settle for a boring old mirror. If you don’t want to go out and buy a new mirror, you can change things up by utilizing your existing one and putting a custom frame around it. Or if you have a frameless mirror, you can incorporate backlighting behind it in order to give depth and dimension. Not only does this change the look of it but it also makes it look more expensive. If you do have a little money available, you can opt to get a whole new one with some character. Our recommendation would be to match it to the rest of the hardware in order to seamlessly tie everything together. Additionally, with this new and improved mirror, to help create a beautiful focal point, you might also want to add a new backsplash or wallpaper.
Trendy Backsplash
The backsplash of a bathroom can be an overlooked design element that people miss out on. They don’t have to be strictly functional and boring; they can also be trendy as well. Sure, it’s for protecting your walls, but why does that mean it can’t be fun too? It’s the perfect opportunity for you to bring out some character in your bathroom, while adding a focal point. There are so many different options you can choose from which range in material, size, shapes, colours, and textures. Along with a plethora of tile options which allow you to achieve any look you could possibly want.
Cabinets
Cabinets can vary from bathroom to bathroom, it’s the size of the actual bathroom that dictates how many there are. Some bathrooms have one cabinet, while others have many. The easiest thing you can do to completely change the look of your bathroom is changing the colour of your cabinets. There are endless options as to what you can change them to. Depending on your cabinet material, you can stain them a different colour or paint them. For an additional enhancement, you can also opt to change out the hardware in order to make them look more luxurious.
Wallpaper
Before you turn your nose up at this idea, wallpaper is coming back into style, and with so many more options available at reasonable prices. This is a quick and easy way to completely change the look of your bathroom, and no painting required! There are a few things you will need to decide; having one accent wall, putting it on all the walls, and whether you want to make it subtle or bold and vibrant. Another bonus of wallpaper is that it can be temporary and changed frequently. Thank you peel and stick wallpaper for making application and take down so easy!
