Remodeling your bathroom is a fantastic way to turn a drab and boring bathroom into something that really shines. There are all kinds of ways you can transform your bathroom into something that guests will gawk at, something that you can be proud of. Unlike remodeling a kitchen, which could take weeks or months, a bathroom remodel can be done in just days.

Bathrooms are much smaller than other rooms in the house. For small remodeling jobs, you can be finished in as little as 3 to 7 days. Bigger jobs can take up to two weeks, but generally won’t take longer than that.

So what can you do to give your bathroom new life? Here are a few innovative ways to remodel your bathroom.

Add Some Greenery

Adding bamboo is a fantastic way to give your bathroom a more organic feel. If your bathroom is all tiles and metal right now, adding a little bit of green can make a big difference.

You can also add a few small plants to your bathroom to create the same effect.

Add In Some Mirrors

Mirrors play a unique role in designing a room. Though they don’t have any color of their own, they reflect every other color in the room. They don’t change the “vibe” of the room, but they amplify whatever vibe is there.

Mirrors also create the illusion of space. Rooms with several mirrors or with large mirrors tend to look larger than rooms without mirrors. The subconscious mind can’t tell the difference between real space and reflected space.

Adding in mirrors is a great way to add more ambiance to a bathroom, as well as to make it look more spacey.

Lighting up the bath

One way to stretch your dollars is by updating the vanity lighting in your bathroom. Your bathroom lighting is crucial to how well it functions and how great it looks, so you can really maximize the benefits of upgrading the lighting in this space. Use these simple tips when installing: Install a bath fixture that is at least 24” wide directly over your mirror and approximately 75”-80” above the floor. If you want additional task lighting and ambiance, go for wall sconces on either side of the mirror, at least 28” apart and 60” above the floor. Not only will this layer the light, but really add pop to the overall design.

Next you have a wide range of artificial light sources. You can try using dimmer lights, more romantic lights or lights that are slightly colored.

Try out different kinds of lighting to see how different you can make your bathroom look.

Replace Your Bathroom Faucets

Your bathroom’s faucet is one of the most important pieces to your bathroom. It’s one of the first things your eyes settle on when you step foot in the bathroom. Changing your faucet can subtly yet powerfully influence your bathroom’s overall feel.

Take a look at some of the different designs you can use for your bathroom faucet. You can choose from classical designs, modern designs, simple designs, clean designs, oriental designs and more. Pick a faucet that’ll either compliment or contrast the rest of your bathroom.

Add Stone to the Wall

Adding stone to your wall is a fantastic outside the box way to add some unique texture to the bathroom.

Most people don’t use stone throughout the entire bathroom. Instead, they just add stone in one area. For instance, the shower walls, or just the area above the bathroom sink. This creates a beautiful contrast between the rest of the walls and the stone walls.

Add a Unique Shower Faucet

Most bathrooms come with very boring and often very antiquated shower faucets. Replacing your old shower faucets with newer, better designed shower faucets is a great way to breathe new life into your bathroom.

Replacing your shower faucet isn’t nearly as hard as you’d imagine. In fact, the whole thing can take just a couple hours, from unpacking your new shower faucet to having it installed and ready to go.

Repainting the Walls

Finally, you could try repainting the walls. Repainting the walls is a major job that often takes a lot longer than you’d expect. You have to be very careful, as there are a lot of corners and edges that you have to protect. That said, repainting your bathroom is a great way to completely shift the colors and feel of your bathroom.

These are a few different innovative ways to remodel your bathroom. Think creatively. Don’t let time or money constrain your remodel. There are plenty of ways to remodel your bathroom affordably or quickly. Of course, if you have money to invest, there are even more options available to you.
