While we love a complete bathroom renovation as much as the next person, there are also simpler ways to revamp your bathroom by bringing out the best of your space with easy and affordable updates.
With our reno expertise, we often have one hand in a bathroom renovation project in one way or another, so we have learnt a few tips and tricks from our various renovations that we of course are going to share with our community. With these simple updates, you can make additions at your own pace, which means there are options for every budget. Follow along, and let’s jump into some simple tips on how to style your bathroom.
If you take a little scroll on Pinterest or a flick through some interior design magazines, you will notice that there is one common element to a well-styled bathroom: plants. When it comes to bathroom styling plants can add a refreshing and natural feel to your space. If you have had your fair share of withered house plants, don’t worry; we have found the perfect low-maintenance options for your bathroom environment. Check out our previous blog, ‘8 of the Best Plants for Your Bathroom,’ to find the perfect fit for your space. So, green thumb or not, plants are an easy way to add life and colour to your bathroom.
Look, we know talking about towels isn’t the most innovative of bathroom styling ideas, but we can’t skip the basics. The towels and bathroom linens you select for your bathroom set the tone for your overall bathroom style. Neutral towels work for a serene, minimalist space, while colourful patterns can give a little bit of personality. Luckily, you don’t have to choose one style and stick to it; you can easily rotate your towels through the seasons to mix it up and refresh your space regularly.
We personally have an eye for the dreamy collection at Loop Home. With zingy, bright orange patterns for the more daring amongst us and deeper sage hues, ideal for pairing with indoor plants, there’s something for every bathroom. Or, for a more neutral look, we can’t get enough of the striped collection available at Country Road.
Often, when we move into a new place, we accept the existing hardware as permanent, working around fixtures that just aren’t us. But a new vanity or cabinetry hardware is actually a super simple bathroom upgrade, allowing you to create a more cohesive space from top to bottom.
Our collection of bathroom hardware is designed to take your space to the next level, with different finishes from Matte Black to Warm Brushed Nickel or a simple Chrome. With robe hooks, heated towel rails and of course all of the basics like door handles and soap shelves, you can find everything you are looking for here at Yabby.
A quality mirror can make a big difference to your bathroom, our mirror cabinets are designed to be easy additions rather than lengthy renovation projects, and they can be easily installed over tiles or directly on your wall. With various shapes, sizes and colours as well as mirror options with hidden storage for additional functionality, the Yabby bathroom mirror range is designed to not only look great but also be functional. To pair with a modern bathroom, we recommend checking out our Arched Mirror range, or for something a little more classic, check out our Oak Mirror Cabinet with much-needed additional bathroom storage.
If your shower shelf is looking a little worse for wear, with a mound of neglected soap residue and mostly empty bottles of various brands of shampoo, don’t worry. You aren’t alone. Luckily, shower accessories are a super easy bathroom styling solution.
To create some additional space for your favourite bathroom products, a new shower shelf is a great place to start. Now that you have a fresh new shelf, it seems fitting to keep the style going with carefully designed soaps, shampoos and other shower items. We love the collection of goodies available at Saarde; the amber bottle is a bonus, sure to add a hotel feel to any bathroom.
Remember, you don't need a complete renovation to give your bathroom a new lease on life. Sometimes, the smallest changes, like adding a pot plant or switching up your towel game, can make the biggest difference to how your space feels.
If you're ready to take your bathroom up a level, start with one of these simple updates and see where it takes you. And hey, if you get stuck or need extra advice on picking the perfect mirror or hardware to match your space, our team is always here to help!
