Looking for small bathroom ideas on a budget? Don’t let a small bathroom hinder your style. Even the most petite of powder rooms and teensy-weensiest of washrooms can pack big style with just a few simple decor pieces. Working with a budget, too? No problem. Here, we highlight the best decor for a small bathroom, from the least expensive to the most investment-worthy!
1. Soap dispenser
Every bathroom needs a soap dispenser or soap dish, right? Make this essential stylish by selecting a design that conveys more than your soap brand of choice. For something timeless but elevated, choose a marble or stone design. Even more versatile? A standard amber apothecary bottle with a classic (water-resistant) white label — It’ll instantly lend a clean, polished look to any bathroom.
2. Shower curtain
Another essential that can convey personal style in a bath is a shower curtain. Since a shower curtain is technically a textile, approach it like you would other textiles like drapery, and don’t discount the option of going custom. Two yards of fabric can pull off a full shower curtain from start to finish, meaning that splurging on that Schumacher fabric you’ve been eyeing for years might just be justifiable.
3. Rug
Don’t settle for a basic bathmat. To up the style quota, consider a vintage rug to add character to a small bath. Designers are fond of Turkish mats, and it’s easy to see why. They come in small sizes, similar to bathmats, and can be procured in a wide array of color palettes. Whether you’re looking for a pink rug, blue rug, or beige rug, chances are you can find an intricate and interesting Turkish mat to match.
