Now for the fun part! Bathroom accessories can put the icing on the cake for your bathroom makeover. Keep in mind that these small details should help complement and accent the rest of the room! These subtle details can reinforce style, themes, patterns, and colors that you would like to bring out of your bathroom design.
Instead of buying the first thing you see, take some time to look for items that will contribute to the overall theme. This will create continuity within your design and have your friends wondering if you hired a pro! Things to consider are soap holders, towel racks, switch panels, and faucets!

4. Personalize Your Bathroom

Personalization is the key to creating a lasting bathroom design that you will love for years to come. Often times, homeowners choose styles that may have been popular with others but doesn’t particularly hold true to themselves. Adding a personal touch is a great way to create a bathroom that will last a lifetime. Think about your hobbies, interests, and passions. Interweave these into your design to make something that is truly unique and speaks to you!

5. Upcycle

Update your bathroom and help preserve our natural environment at the same time! Upcycling used products is a great way to repurpose household items. In layman’s terms, it’s a way of making new stuff out of old stuff. Think about using old glass jars to help organize cotton swabs, q-tips, and first-aid supplies. This largely depends on what you have lying around the house but you can upcycle virtually anything. Tradewinds Imports encourages you to be green and help protect the environment!
