Decorating a bathroom on a small budget is really like a tight rope walk where you constantly have to balance between your budget and your dreams of having a plush bathroom. It is indeed quite challenging to do so where the design you like seems to be out of your budget and the designs in your budget seem to be out of your mind. You probably have to apply a lot of creativity and pay attention to the details of bathroom decoration to come up with ideas that would fall in your budget just rightly. I will share some of the bathroom ideas that are sure to help you change the look of your bathroom for the better, that too on a small budget.

Bathroom Decorating Ideas on a Budget

First of all let's see what can possibly increase your budget. Generally, replacing the shower enclosures, jacuzzi, and tubs, etc., would cost you a bit as replacing them causes a lot of damage to the flooring and walls of the bathroom. Renovating the entire bathroom too costs much for the obvious reasons. So when you have a small budget, you must focus on small bathroom designs involving small things that can bring big changes. Given below are some of the small things in your bathroom that would help you in a big makeover.

Painting the Bathroom: Simply changing the color of the bathroom can help you give a new look to it. You can either paint all the bathroom walls or paint one wall with a particular theme that can suit the overall decor of the bathroom. If you do the painting job on weekend on your own, it is sure to save some extra money as well.

Adding the Cabinets: Your bathroom probably looks unkempt because the toiletries are just lying around somewhere in the bathroom. So why not add few cabinets in the bathroom where you can store all the toiletries along with few fancy things like scented candles, vase, and home spa ingredients, etc. to get the exotic feel.

Curtains: Yes, decorating your bathroom with curtains is certainly one of the best ideas on remolding bathrooms with a strict budget. Just buy some of those transparent and delicate lacy curtains and add them to the bathroom windows. If you do not have windows or in addition to the previous idea, you can add the brand new shower curtain in the bathroom, which is sure to look different.

Mirror: Do you still have the boring square or oval shape mirror in the bathroom then changing it with a new decorative mirror can heighten the look of the bathroom. Go for full length or decorative mirrors if the overall decor and size of the bathroom permits so. You can also go for a full wall mirror that would make the bathroom more glamorous.

Designer Faucets and Hangers: You can also think of designer faucets, hangers, shower kit, and shover drain covers, etc. which will bring a subtle change in your bathroom. Replace your age-old faucets and other things with the new ones and I am sure you will find the bathroom more presentable. There are many advanced and high-end designs available in the market that you can choose from. Just make sure that the ones you choose are compatible with other decorations in your bathroom.

Tiles: Changing tiles is not that costly, especially, now when there are so many companies which have many varieties in tiles that can fit in your budget. You can create various effects by different tiles. For example, you can create mosaic wall in the bathroom or you can also use murals in the bathroom. A theme bathroom is also a great idea that you can try using particular tiles.

Lights: Lights play a very important role in how one feels in the bathroom. You can make use of different lights to create a particular mood. You can opt for multiple lights to get varied effects for varied moods. You have the choice to go for designer light fittings that help you get a desired a look for your bathroom.

These are some of the small parts of the bathroom which make a significant difference when it comes to bathroom ideas on a budget. These ideas are relatively cheaper than remolding the bathroom completely. So try some of these and experience the change in the way you spend time in the bathroom.
