Your Essential Guide to having a More Elegant, Expensive-Looking Bathroom

Are you tired of having a bathroom that looks dull, generic, and boring? Do you want to transform your bathroom and make it look as chic, stylish, and, let?s face it, as expensive as can be? Luckily, you don't have to spend an exorbitant amount in order to make your bathroom look elegant and expensive. There are some easy ways to do it without breaking the bank. Here's your essential guide to having a more elegant, expensive-looking bathroom.

The right lighting

Whilst a simple, stark overhead light is often the only light in many bathrooms, don't restrict yourself to this. Play with different levels of lighting in your bathroom. Install sconces on the sides of your bathroom mirror. Place a few spotlights in the corners. Make use of pretty pendant lighting. With the right lighting, your bathroom will instantly look great ? and it's easy to set the mood and ambience as well.

White, white, and more white

One simple way to make your bathroom look ? and feel ? more expensive is to use white. Even the most ordinary bathroom can look quite elegant if it has white cupboards, shelves, and cabinets. If you have the budget, why not replace your dull and dated countertop with a simple white one? Paint the walls in white, and use white towels and linens. One tip: a dull bathroom will immediately look more expensive if you use high-quality white rugs and towels. Pair your white cabinets and shelves and the white walls with neutral-coloured accessories.

Make it ?green?

Another way to make your bathroom look more elegant and expensive is to use greenery. Potted plants and flowers in vases can transform the ambience and atmosphere in your bathroom. If you have windows in your bathroom, replace dark drapes or blinds with lighter ones which can let the sunlight in. You can also use artwork such as pictures of plants and flowers to give a more Zen-like feel to your bathroom.

Replace coloured toilets, baths, and shower tiles

If you have the extra budget, you can just do a major makeover on your bathroom. The first bathroom elements you should focus on in this makeover are the toilet, bath, and shower area. If these are in an unattractive, dated colour, such as green, pink, yellow, and more, it's worth investing in a new toilet and a new bath and shower that are in simple, clean white. White is the go-to colour for fixtures like these, simply because it is a classic and will never go out of style. You can even go a step further and install a whirlpool bath ? whirlpool baths in white are not only elegant and chic, but the whirlpool bath?s massage effect goes a long way in refreshing your mind, body, and spirit as well.
