The 10 Bathroom Accessories that any Bathroom Should Have
If you think that your bathroom looks too plain and boring then it probably means that you don’t have enough accessories in it or you just don’t have the right types. While it may sound overwhelming to anyone that doesn’t have a degree in interior design and decorating, it really is quite simple to do. All you have to keep in mind is that you don’t have to go overboard with any one piece, think of it more as a collaborative effect.
1. Don’t hang yourself on the wrong curtain choice (Selecting the Right Shower Rod and Hook)
Tiny details like the shower rod and hook can make a huge impact on the overall design of your bathroom. While it may seem inconsequential, the color and design of your shower rod and hook can actually make or break the whole look of your bathroom. A rubbed bronze shower rod may look excellent in a bathroom with earth themed colors but it would absolutely be horrible in a blue or bright colored theme.
2. Pick a set, don’t go piece by piece (Get a Bath Accessory Set)
While it may sound like a good idea to pick individual bathroom accessories based on how you like each piece, there’s always that chance that when put all together, they might not look well. By getting a bath accessory set, you’ll find that you won’t have to worry about them “matching” with the rest of your items because they’re already a set and they’re designed to fit in with all of the other items in the set.
3. Mind the toilet paper (Picking the Right Toilet Paper Holder)
A lot of people laugh when they hear about how much some people spend for toilet paper holders. While this bathroom accessory isn’t really considered to be something on the top of the list, it’s still a good idea to find and choose one that goes well with your overall design. You can have this installed into the wall to give it that beautiful seamless look with the rest of your bathroom.
4. When to cover yourself up (Shower Curtain)
A shower curtain is basically something that we don’t think about when it comes to bathroom accessories. We usually pick the ones which we think has a lovely color or has a beautiful shade when we’re in the store. What people usually forget it that which this item looks beautiful in a store shelf, it may look totally different when attached to their shower rods. I recommend that you take a photo of your bathroom before going to the store to choose the right shower curtain. Show the photo to the attendant and ask him or her to find you the right color product to put up.
5. Mirror, mirror, on the wall (How to Select the Right Wall Mirror)
Selecting a wall mirror is pretty easy. The best way to do so would be to select a large frameless wall mirror and you’re set. The reason for this is that the mirror will add a feeling of depth and space to an otherwise cramped bathroom. A large modern wall mirror also goes well with black or nickel accents to give it a little bit of contrast from the rest of the bathroom accessories.
6. What bathroom is complete without a place to hang your towels (Towel Holders)
Towel Holders can be made out of nickel, bronze, aluminum or any other metal out there. There really isn’t much to say when it comes to selecting the right towel bar. Just remember have the towel holder installed somewhere on the wall that’s accessible so that you won’t drip all over the floor after a shower or a bath.
7. Ooooh It’s so nice and shiny (Stainless Steel Bathroom Accessories)
One relatively easy way to make sure that all of your bathroom accessories match with each other beautifully is to choose everything to come in stainless steel. The beauty of this is that everything from the towel bar to the shower curtain rod can be found in stainless steel. It also goes along with whatever color the wall is and whatever color your bathroom is so if you’re pressed for time and you don’t want to go over all of the different designs, stainless steel is the way to go.
8. Old school is new school (Using Polished Brass)
Polished brass is the newest thing when it comes to bathroom accessories. In the olden times, brass was used in bathrooms because of its durability and not its looks. With the advent of technology, you can now find polished brass faucets and adjustable shower curtain rods made from it. Polished brass is a lot more affordable than going nickel or bronze and in some lighting conditions, they can look pretty similar.
9. Your bathroom’s centerpiece (The Perfect Shower)
The best part about picking bathroom accessories is picking the perfect shower head. There are hundreds of designs and styles out there that you can choose from so picking one from the myriad of choices isn’t easy. I can recommend some bronze shower heads that will stand the test of time. There are aluminum and plastic ones out there but you’ll keep on replacing them because they’re not really durable. Bronze or nickel shower heads on the other hand can give you years, if not decades of use before breaking.
10. Where’s it attached to?! (Frameless wall mirrors)
An excellent design inspiration when picking bathroom accessories is to pick a frameless wall mirror for your bathroom. Not only does it look good, it adds a lot of class to your bathroom as well since most five star restaurants and hotels all use frameless wall mirrors. These willl be most useful in your bathroom decorating.
Now if you have all ten of these bathroom accessories in order then there really shouldn’t be any issue with the design. Just make sure that they all complement each other and you’ll be surprised at how you’ll be boasting that your bathroom is the best room in the house. Actually, to a lot of people, it’s usually the bathroom that they consider to be the most important room in the house.
