When spring weather hits, there’s something in the air that makes us want to cast off our winter hobbies, fling open the windows, and immediately start cleaning everything. Sometimes this change in the seasons also makes us want to try something new—like a different paint color on the walls or decor that will make a room look fresh again.
One space I’ve noticed that’s always in need of TLC is the bathroom.
Of course, a decor overhaul costs money. With summer gatherings and vacation plans on the very near horizon, your budget is likely being pulled in dozens of directions. So, to ensure you can make a few meaningful changes without stretching yourself too thin, we put together a list of stylish products—all priced below $200—based on trending looks.
1 – One favorite way to dress up a bathroom without spending more than a few bucks is with wall appliqués featured in @homee_flowerss.
“Instead of wallpaper with preset patterns, use peel and stick vinyl appliqués that allow you to create your own unique arrangements on the walls”, says Courtney Wollersheim of FLOOR360
It’s always best to start with a single wall to check our your layout.
2- ‘Grandmillennial’ shower curtain
When you want to change the look and feel of a bathroom without going too far on the DIY route, one easy solution is to swap out the shower curtain. A stylish option, especially if you want a bright pattern, can be found at @elizabethhaydesign. “Grandmillennial interior design is the perfect antidote to minimalism and Scandi modernism”, says Robin DeCapua of Madison Modern Home. “It gives traditional elements a modern twist, creating a comfortable, sophisticated look.”
3- Mod wallpaper
Another bold and bright way to transform your bathroom is with mod wallpaper seen at @mattoboard.
“Not only can wallpaper be a budget-friendly option, it also adds a touch of nostalgia to the space, especially a print,” says DeCapua.
4- Vintage mirror
Vintage has always been the antidote to mass-produced decor for sure. If you’re feeling like your bathroom is nothing special, check out designer Amber Lewis of @shoppeamberinteriors. You will be intrigued by how the spaces feel with a simple addition of a unique mirror.
5- Oil lamp-inspired wall sconce
There’s no question new lighting will instantly transform the vibe of your bathroom. Check out @heidicaillerdesign for some transformative oil lamp- inspired sconces that bring a sense of warmth as well as charm to the space. DeCapua says, “whether you’re soaking in the tub or getting ready for the day ahead, the soft glow of the sconces create a calming atmosphere to help you feel more relaxed and refreshed.”
So there you have it! Five ways to dress up in a ‘glam’ way any bathroom with under $200!
