BATHROOM DECORATING IDEAS
Is the bathroom your morning or evening place? For some of us, there’s nothing better than the morning sunshine streaming in and mixing with colorful art — this bright combination can energize the entire day. For those of you seeking an evening retreat, draw inspiration from the soothing effects of water: choose art and hues of blue or images of reclining figures to create a relaxed atmosphere. If there’s a free-standing tub and the walls near it are protected from water, stretched canvas can be placed where you can see it while soaking, or set a very large piece on the floor to lean on the wall. Even several small pieces on a shelf can have impact and be easily moved or changed to suit your mood. If there’s a wall by the sink with a bit of space, consider a pair of lush botanicals that remind you of fresh air and nature. The bathroom, with its limited space, is still a great room to get creative when placing art.
Find Art for your Bathroom
What kind of artwork is good for a bathroom?
- Practicality: Choose art that’s been professionally framed with a sealed back (psst! that’s all of our art!) to keep it safe from humidity.
- Go small: Intimate rooms call for an intimate size. Not only is it more likely to fit, but it encourages you to get up close to see the details.
- Audience: Who uses your bathroom? If it’s a kids’ bathroom, maybe consider playful art. For your principle bath, create a spa-like vibe with art that soothes you.
Where can you hang art in the bathroom?
- Above the toilet: Make use of that blank wall space!
- Next to the mirror: So you can admire it while you’re brushing your teeth.
- Propped on a shelf: If you have open shelving in your bathroom, consider tucking in a small art piece to add depth and intrigue.
