13 Stunning Bathroom Decor Ideas You’ll Want to Steal

Bathroom Vanity Decor

Antique dressers that have withstood the test of time function wonderfully as bathroom vanities. They offer plenty of storage space and room to hide plumbing. You can purchase a custom-cut marble top for a waterproof surface.

Add Pattern to Shelves

Draw attention to your bathroom shelves by lining the back with a patterned wallpaper. Tile and stencils can also achieve the same effect. Complete the look with thick wood shelves stained your favorite way.

Bathroom Wallpaper Ideas

Bathrooms are an ideal space for a bold wallpaper choice. They’re usually smaller spaces (meaning you’ll spend less on wallpaper) and you can opt for a louder pattern or color than you might in a living space. If your bathroom receives proper ventilation (or doesn’t have a tub or a shower) you shouldn’t experience issues, although you can find moisture-specific wallpaper made specifically for bathrooms. And, choosing a wallpaper with a larger print can actually create the illusion of more space!

Display Your Jewelry

When brainstorming bathroom decor ideas, try to merge form with function. You don’t need to add unnecessary decor to clutter your space. For example, you can show off your favorite jewels on a stylish necklace stand.

Lay a Vintage Rug

Vintage rugs add a nice time-worn flair to any space. However, there’s something extra beautiful about how they pop against a sleek tiled floor. There are plenty of washable reproductions on the market, so you can create a vintage look without ruining an antique.

Mix Metals with Bathroom Decor

Gold fixtures are back in vogue, and they definitely have staying power. If you’re not ready to fully commit to all gold, don’t be afraid to mix it up. Opt for classic chrome on the more expensive and harder-to-replace fixtures, such as your shower and sink faucets. Then, you can opt for gold on your sconces and cabinet hardware.

Paint Your Trim

One way to introduce extra color to your bathroom is to paint the trim. While white baseboards and window trim are a classic move, experiment with some bolder hues, such as a fresh green paired with a lively wallpaper.

Decorate with Trays

Spare serving platters and decorative trays make for a wonderful spot to house your everyday products. Plus, corralling your bottles, soaps, and trinkets onto a tray reduces visual clutter, keeping the countertops organized.

Decorate Every Surface

It’s helpful to take advantage of any spare surface space you have in a tiny bathroom. The back of a toilet is an often-overlooked space where you can place a candle and extra bars of soap.

Picture Rail Bathroom Decor

Give your bathroom walls an upgrade by installing picture rails. Overlapping the frames offers a laid-back look, similar to a gallery wall. Consider sticking to a loose theme for your collection, such as nature-inspired art or pieces in a similar color family.

Decorate with Dried Flowers

If purchasing a weekly bouquet of flowers for your bathroom seems a bit unrealistic to you, dried flowers are a good alternative that achieves a similar effect. Styling tip: They look lovely next to other natural statement pieces, such as dried coral.

Bathroom Tile Decor Ideas

People often play it safe when it comes to tile. While choosing a timeless version is important due to the installation effort and monetary cost, basic subway tile isn’t your only option. For example, this bathroom features tile in a classic square shape, but in a bold cobalt blue shade.
