How to decorate a boring bathroom
There are lots of innovative and unusual ways to give new life to a dull bathroom. Use this list as your starting point, find inspiration and define the style you are looking to achieve.
A fresh lick of paint or adding a statement curtain or bath mat are just a couple simple ways to make your bathroom feel fresh and new. If you’re looking to elevate your bathroom a little further, why not change up your tiling, lights or storage.
Why not opt for a bold statement light fixture as a focal point in the room?
Bathroom wall decorations
Decor in your bathroom doesn’t have to be sparse, lots of people overlook decor when it comes to their bathrooms but wall decor in a bathroom can be a great way to decorate the space.
Consider incorporating wall art such as paintings, vinyl decals or ceramic pieces to elevate your space. Nautical themed art is particularly popular in bathrooms but it’s not your only option.
Why not turn your bathroom into a relaxing retreat, with neutral and minimalistic style choices you can easily create a serene, spa-like ambience.
Color schemes
- Neutral tones – oatmeal, camel and cocoa.
- Darker tones– deepest plum, emerald green and charcoal.
- Mid tones – bay leaf, sky blue and buttercup.
Dreamy bathroom ideas
1. Small
This bathroom is a perfect example of a statement piece done right. When working with an existing simplistic bathroom design this is such a simple way to take an ordinary, plain bathroom cabinet into a focal point of the room.
This easy upgrade doesn’t just apply to cabinets, you can apply the same design principle with a shower curtain, mirror frame or even towels.
2. Guest
Decorating a guest bathroom why not opt for a minimalistic style. Create a tranquil atmosphere for your guests with a few easy design choices.
Choose a neutral color palette, add simple and sleek fixtures and use natural elements such as flowers, bamboo or stone. Opt for warm lighter over cool to add to the ambience.
3. Neutral
We absolutely love the minimalistic approach in this bathroom!
No matter the size of bathroom you’re working with minimalism can be a great option when done right – after all minimalism isn’t just a lack of decor. Make intentional choices when picking your limited design pieces – similarly to the previous image, opt for clean and simple decor.
4. Black
Black might not be your first thought when you’re thinking of decorating your bathroom but don’t overlook it just yet.
Using black as an accent throughout a bathroom can be a bold way to create a unique bathroom. Taps, handles and other bathroom fixtures are a great chance to incorporate black into the space whilst not being overwhelming. Alternatively add a statement wall with a dynamic wallpaper with black features, like in the image above.
5. Black and white
Looking to design a neutral space but not a fan of beige or brown, why not try a black and white theme. This classic, timeless combination offers a clean and sleek aura to any bathroom space.
Consider crisp white tiles or walls for your foundation. Incorporate shades of grey to create depth and variation. Complement these with black accent handles, faucets and taps. For your bath mats and towels avoid whites and opt for darker grays or black.
Such a beautiful approach to fall decor!

7. Zen
Don’t you already feel relaxed just from looking at this photo! Opt for neutral tones and earthy elements like this wooden leaf-basket to create a calm and serene environment.
Wood and stone are essential when designing a zen, spa inspired bathroom. Cabinetry and shelves are a great way to incorporate wood whilst counter-tops and flooring are best for including stone. Why not add river stones as decorative pieces on counters or even in your shower.
8. Ocean
Nautical and oceanic vibes are probably the most popular for bathrooms and there’s lots of ways to bring the ocean to your space.
Use shades of blue to mimic the colors of the sea, tiling is a great way to add variation and depth to a plain blue wall. Decorative shells, coral and starfish are a perfect way to add subtle elements of the ocean too.
9. Luxury
Looking to create a more luxurious space? Look no further! Marble or stone counter-tops paired with clean walls will set the foundation for a grandeur bathroom.
Ambient built-in lighting fitted around a mirror or along counter-tops can elevate your bathroom. Add stylish glass dispensers and vases for soaps, shampoos or bath bombs to combine functuality with elegance – store these on a chic storage tray. Thoughtful touches like this will really level up your space, transforming it into a luxurious haven.
10. Green
If blue isn’t for you why not design a green bathroom!
Darker green-toned tiles can create a tranquil ambience in your space. Incorporate green leaved plants to tie in with the tiles, enhancing the serene feel. Introducing naturally occurring browns through wood elements or soap dispensers can add an alternative color without being overwhelming. Gold or black accent fixtures are perfectly complimentary of a green bathroom, adding a touch of elegance.
Can we take a moment for tiling an entire bathroom space. Tiling shouldn’t be restricted to the shower; it can be used to create a cohesive and visually stunning environment that makes the room feel expansive.
11. With bathtub
A free-standing bathtub can be used as a functional and aesthetic piece in your bathroom.
Free-standing bathtubs can compliment any bathroom style, easily enhancing the overall design. For example, a vintage-inspired bathtub can be a perfect statement piece in a room, adding a touch of elegance to the room. Other vintage elements, such as a classic towel rail, a ‘bath-side’ cabinet, or seating can add even more charm.
12. Blue
Reminiscent of the sky and sea, a blue-tone bathroom can create a grounded and mellow experience.
Opt for duller tones of blue to a soothing and sophisticated ambiance in the room. These subtle shades of blue can perfectly blend with a range of other white or gray hues. Compliment these with a wooden feature or decor element to add warmth and texture to your bathroom.
Why not add a bust or a wall-mounted statue to elevate a more simplistic bathroom.
