When it comes to decorating your home, the bathroom is often an afterthought. However, according to TODAY, the average person spends about 420 minutes per week in the bathroom. This means that you spend more than 15 days a year in the bathroom! With so much time spent in the bathroom, it’s worth personalizing your space.
Whether it’s a rushed morning on a weekday or relaxing at the end of a busy day, your bathroom should feel neat and relaxed. Elevate your space with these bathroom counter decorating tips, including simple storage ideas.
One of the easiest but effective ways to decorate a bathroom counter is to add flowers or plants. Choose an arrangement that complements the color of your bathroom, or incorporate succulents to create a natural atmosphere. If you want to keep flowers all year round or if your bathroom lacks natural light, opt for a faux arrangement.
Using baskets, jars, and jars as decorations is an easy way to remodel your bathroom. Choose textures and sizes that suit your needs and complement your existing bathroom design. Also, use decorative baskets and jars to store less flashy bathroom products that you don’t want to showcase.
Placing wooden trays and platforms next to the sink can help display and lift hand sanitizers, lotions, brushes, and room sprays. Decorating bathroom countertops with wooden trays can also add texture and warm cool bathroom finishes like chrome.
To give your bathroom counters a streamlined look, pair the soap dispenser with other bathroom accessories, such as jars and tissue box lids. Having matching décor will also make your counter look more organized.
Showcasing artwork is an easy way to showcase your personal style and set the tone of your room. Use neutral, nature-inspired pieces to make your bathroom feel calmer, or opt for colorful prints to give your bathroom a fun, playful feel.
Rolling up a towel is sure to make your guests feel like they’re at a home spa. Roll up a hand towel or face towel next to the sink for easy access and create a spa-like feel.
Instead of using multiple accessories to decorate your bathroom counter, use a statement piece. This can be a larger plant, a piece of art, or a set of ornaments such as a vase or jar. Place in the center of both sinks or in the corner of a single vanity.
Swapping out for amber glassware is an easy way to add color to your bathroom while maintaining a neutral and relaxed look. Try using an amber soap dispenser, toothbrush holder, or jar.
Glass trays are a classic way to display decorative items in any room. Since the glass tray is neutral, it can fit any style or color scheme. Use glass trays in the bathroom to display perfume bottles, jewelry, or brushes.
When in doubt, choose a clean, simple bathroom countertop look. Display essentials like soap and towels, but store other toiletries under cabinets or sinks.
