Make Decorating Fun With Themed Bathroom Accessories

So you're planning to redecorate your bathroom. Maybe you're tired of the run-of-the-mill neutral colors the room was likely designed with, but you don't know what to do about it. Is it really necessary to paint the room and change the tiles to get some color in there?

Absolutely not. You can make your bathroom look like a new room with very little effort by taking the focus off of the actual construction and putting it onto your bathroom accessories. Most people have mismatched bathroom accessories -- soap dispensers, toothbrush holders and shower curtains that are bought individually as needed. While they serve their purpose, they look, well, mismatched. Don't ignore them, though -- bathroom accessories, even the little ones like shower curtain rings, can all be a part of your decorating.

Consider decorating your bathroom with an overall theme. To theme something is to make all parts of it match; themes express your personal tastes, and can add fun and color to any room. Decorating a bathroom to match a theme is particularly easy, since there are so many bathroom accessories that you can buy that go together. Bathroom accessories that are theme-friendly include shower curtains, shower hooks, toilet seat lids and lid covers, bath towels, soap dishes, hand soap dispensers, wallpaper, tissue box holders, toothbrush holders, wastebaskets, tumblers, bath mats, shampoo bottles, shaped soaps, and even toilet brushes.

There are an amazing variety of themes available, too; so many, in fact, that choosing one is as simple as picking one of your favorite things, looking it up and buying it. Some popular themes for bathrooms are the beach, butterflies, frogs, wild mustangs, camping, tribal artwork, kittens, tropical fish, sports cars, Victorian style and holidays. You can decorate to a theme more subtly by using a particular color scheme, such as shades of blue, or your favorite print pattern.
