You don’t have to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars for every home remodeling or improvement project you undertake. There are plenty of easy bathroom updates you can do yourself to modernize or personalize the space.
4 Easy Bathroom Updates to Do Over the Weekend
Below are some affordable DIY projects to consider when you have the time to update your bathroom.
Add a Mirror
Mirrors are excellent accessories for your home, especially in the bathroom. As you prepare to go out, you need to see how you look before walking out the door.
Mirrors are also ideal for small spaces as they add a sense of depth. You likely already have one mirror in your bathroom above the sink, but there is nothing wrong with adding more to make the room look more spacious.
Repaint the Cabinets
Another easy bathroom update that gives the room a new look is repainting the cabinets. You only need a brush and some paint to get the job done, and you don’t need to hire a painter. Whether you want to change the color to complement some new fixtures or just want to add a personal touch to your bathroom with colors you like, freshly repainted cabinets will do the trick.
Repaint the Bathroom Walls
Updating wall color is an excellent way to revamp any space, bathrooms included. The color you choose should complement the cabinets and tiles. If the rest of your bathroom colors are bright and bold, choose a more neutral color for the walls.
Easy Bathroom Updates: Replace Fixtures
Swap out your fixtures for an easy bathroom update. Think about cabinet knobs and handles as well as faucets. You can even change the showerhead to give the bathroom an updated, modern look. A new showerhead will be more water-efficient than an old one.
New light fixtures will also update your space without costing an arm and a leg. Make sure that the fixtures you buy complement each other, so they don’t look out of place in the same area.
Add Extra Storage Space
Most bathrooms can certainly use some additional storage space. If you have enough space to add a few cabinets, go ahead and do so. You can then use the extra space to store towels and toiletries. If you don’t have that much space for full-size cabinets, a few floating shelves will provide additional storage without taking up much wall space.
There are tons of easy bathroom updates you can DIY at home. The few above are as simple as it gets, and they won’t break the bank.
