How to spruce up my bathroom
Recently moved in and inherited this bathroom. It's not too bad but its just very plain and functional atm. Looking for ideas on how to spruce it up without spending a fortune. Potentially might replace the sink as its been shoved in the middle of nowhere a bit and has no storage so hopefully a decent vanity will look better. Wondered about adding panelling, or painting, but what colour?! a
All ideas welcome...floor, bath, tiles and blind are all staying the same.

3 years agoHi, is it a vintage style you like just looking at the shelf styling?
if so, you could add a floral wallpaper behind the loo (use polyvine Matt decorators varnish if it’s not scrubbable paper). Ignore the paper I’ve added as they’re quite personal! I’ve just saved this vanity due to the colour but something along these lines could work. If there’s room you could add a vintage milking stool at the end of the bath. Towels I’d go for texture, I love anything with a tassel!
colours maybe try a mix of skimming stone and elephants breath for the wall and vanity

Main bath (guest) layout design
Comments (16)About your plumber saying "plumb layout is confirmed". That is a load of rubbish. It's fairly easy to move drains around (yes he might have to rip up some walls, but he can also do off-the-wall installations to avoid that). In a small bath proper placement is of the utmost importance!!! If you have the bathtub and shower next to each other that will be much better and then the glass separator idea should work. padmaramachandran's (see post above) setup sounds more reasonable to me as well (see first picture below). This is similar to your setup but as you have more space you could put in bath tub and shower where the picture only shows a bath tub. Also if you do it that way you could theoretically have a bidet or a wider wash basin (small double perhaps too). Example layout: Do you need a bathtub in the guest bath? If not you have a lot more room to work with. E.g. for a double wash basin and large walking shower and a bidet (2nd picture). Example of off-the-wall installation for toilet and bidet and a large walking shower. Finally if you ignore this advice and do it the way you planned ;) then I suggest you really thing about that glass separator. Doing it right will make a lot of difference (see 3rd picture). Good luck!...See MoreMoving home for two disabled women
Comments (35)not alot happening at the moment, its winter! alotta rain, lotta. but i am bedding down to get this over with and maybe in the spring the spirits will rise once more. i hope so. i would love to feel i was doing something to keep my hopes and dreams alive, i dont see what i can do until the spring. when i bring the topic up, especially to those that moved away and came down this neck of the woods, they say they had friends who felt it was too far too and moved back home. i guess thats how i feel, thats what i want and i just want to be a bit more uplifted, i think rain dampens down things a bit!!! santa Ma Margaret!...See MoreWin a design consultation at The permanent tsb Ideal Home Show!
Comments (74)Hello Houzz Ireland, We are currently renovating a 1960's build - so as you know, there is a lot of decisions to be made!! So it would be nice to get some gems of advice from the experts to help us through this daunting task. Areas where we would really like some inspiration for - small bathroom downstairs. I would really like to do something fun with this room and although small, I think it could work really well with some funky wallpaper or possibly tiles?! I'm just not sure what to do with it. Also - pulling a whole house together?! Where do we start? We have the bigger pieces of furniture but how do I know what nest of tables goes best with a suite? Or what accessories will bring a room together? I'm due a second baby in 2 weeks time so any help at this stage would be so amazing - to guide me on the right interior design path for our new house. Thanks, Laurie...See Morehelp please finishing kids bathroom.

3 years agoYes - mirror is on door wall above heated rail atm. Will be getting a new mirror and did wonder about putting it above the toilet - they're the only places a wall mirror can really go.
