While you make time for de-cluttering, cleaning and storing winter clothes, welcome spring by sprucing up your bathroom, too! With new décor, colors, and creativity, a dull area becomes a dazzling paradise. Take a peek at our tips below to get a fresh spring look in your bathroom!
Nothing says springtime like bright colors. Get rid of black, white, brown, gray, beige, navy blue, and neutral shades and aim for colorful bath decor. Mint, yellow, red, pink, green, and purple shades are great standout colors to incorporate into the room. If changing the wall color to be brighter is too much for you, however, use bright pops of color in the vanity, artwork, or vases to get the same feel.
Designs and knickknacks add personality to any room. Stripes, shapes, and patterns on towels, shower curtains, window curtains, bathroom accessory sets, mirrors, and artwork enhance that personality. Embrace the shape of the decorative piece (likely a square or rectangle) in multiple areas to create balance in the space. Quirky accent pieces such as artwork, sculptures, or trinkets tell a story through their detailed designs.
Flowers, plants, and beach pieces will give a spa-like, natural element of the area. It makes the room feel fresh, intimate, and special. Flowers in vases, potted plants, seashells, and conch shells are examples of different natural elements to add to your space. Accessories made of brick, stone, or wood work well also. You could even add a reclaimed wood wall or shelves to give some texture to the room.
It’s impossible to have too much storage space in bathrooms. When shelving is too full to store unused items, portable storage space may be your solution. Portable storage items make bath items easy to access while being stylish. Baskets, bath storage racks, shower caddies, and countertop organizers are great storage options. Larger rooms can add small bath cabinets, over the toilet storage, and ladder shelves for more space.
A mirror is a staple in bathrooms for enlarging the room, so updating the mirror with a new frame will make it pop. If you have only space for small mirrors, we recommend adding multiple to create symmetry. You could even replace one large mirror with two smaller ones to enlarge the space and allow for more creativity. Pair mirrors with sunlight and new lighting fixtures, and the mirror-light combo will illuminate the space.
Let light brighten the area through natural and indoor light. You may even want to replace darker shades or curtains with white or see-through ones if you can. Adding bright, new light fixtures help a space appear brighter and refreshed as well. That could even become a fun spring DIY project – painting old light fixtures to give them a new look!
As you can see, paint jobs and renovation overhauls aren’t necessary to turn bathrooms from drab to fab. Swapping home decor to and from the area will have a major impact on the appearance and vibe without spending thousands to achieve a similar result. Even if Ohio’s weather isn’t ready to welcome spring gracefully, welcome it in the bathroom using accessories.

Spring decor gets your home ready for the warmer months. If you are a homeowner who wants to brighten up the bathrooms in your home, the list of possibilities is endless. By following a few bathroom tips you can easily turn your each bathroom into a more inviting and appealing space.
1. Colors for the Walls
The fastest way to make a dramatic change in any room is to paint the walls a different color. Depending on your decorating style, you can paint the bathroom walls a lovely spring color such as sky blue, pale yellow, rose, or aquamarine. Another option is wallpaper in an attractive pattern and light color.
2. Linens
A small change that can have a great impact is the linens in your bathroom. Buy all new luxurious towels in bright colors or patterns. This is an easy way to add new life to your room. Adding a small rug or changing the one you already use also makes a statement. Also, buying new shower curtains (if you use them) also helps to change the look of a bathroom
3. Window Treatments
By taking advantage of the natural light in your bathrooms you can make the rooms seem more spacious and brighter. Choose curtains or shades that are translucent and let the light in. It is also important to keep things off the windowsills so all the light can enter the room.
4. Greenery
Plants and flowers are a wonderful addition to a bathroom. The greenery brings the outdoors into your bathrooms. With decorative planters, vases and baskets, you can also add new color accents throughout the bathroom.
5. Paintings
If you have one or more paintings in a bathroom, choose different ones. Paintings are a good accessory that makes a bathroom look more interesting. If you do not have paintings, consider adding one that is whimsical, fun or reminiscent of spring.
6. Decorative Lighting
In a bathroom you need task lighting for all the things you do. However, decorative lighting can add elegance or luxury to a bathroom. Chandeliers and sconces come in all styles and sizes, and add elegance and luxury to any bathroom.
7. Renovating Tips
If you want to make a major change to your bathrooms, you can remodel them. You can add a new tub or sink, change the color or material of the tile, or start small and just change the hardware in the bathroom. You can also completely renovate the bathrooms.
Spring is wonderful time for homeowners to redecorate. These spring décor bathroom tips will update your home and make it a more exciting place to live.
