Bathroom Design: 6 Small (But Impactful) Upgrades You Can Do This Weekend

Is your bathroom screaming for a renovation but you don't have the time and money to do so? Would you believe us when we say that you can dramatically boost your bath's appearance for not a lot of money this weekend? Yes you can!

Here are 6 small but impactful bathroom upgrades you can do this weekend according to Apartment Therapy:

Revamp your bathroom vanity

If you really want a super fast and cheap way to update the look of your vanity, then you can give it a new paint in a standout color. This will instantly give the space a focal point. But to take it a notch higher, you can go for a more ambitious upgrade like wallpaper.

Add texture and interest to the walls

Does your bath have plain and boring walls? Why not make them more interesting by installing wood beadboards? If you don't want to fully commit, then you can do at least one feature wall or go for a beadboard-style textured wallpaper.

Cover the walls with art

Of course you can! Put up art pieces gallery-style to change the whole feel of your bathroom. Pick cool and interesting art frames in different styles for a cozier look.

Remove your dated shower doors

Say goodbye to those shower doors already. Aside from creating a division which makes your bathroom seems smaller, they are also a pain to maintain and clean. Install fresh new curtain and you will significantly open up the space and you no longer have to scrub soap and scum off plastic or glass.

Build built in shelves

This upgrade will not only improve your bathroom design wise, you also make it more functional. Build built in shelves into an existing wall to have more space for your bathroom essentials.

Add detail to the bathtub

You don't need to get a new bathtub for this. Just put up a surround or enclosure like adding a crown molding that matches your wall details. There are plenty of materials to choose from such as wood, stone, tile, or beadboard, depending on the look that you are going for.
