Tropical bathrooms are refreshing.
If you need inspiration to redecorate your bathroom, look to the tropics for colorful, bright ideas. Tropical baths are airy, refreshing and simple to pull together once you know what items you need. When you're finished with this project, you'll want to spend as much spare time as you can soaking in the tub and basking in the cool island vibes.
Instructions
1. Select a theme. When it comes to the topics, you can go with the bold colors from exotic islands or with the soothing shades of the beach. Another option is a palm tree or tropical flower theme.
2. Choose colors that enhance your theme. Choose one primary color that will dominate the bathroom, and pick two or three secondary colors to coordinate with it. If your theme is tropical flowers, you might want to use red, yellow, blue and green in your bathroom. Ocean colors include sea foam green, blue and white. For a palm tree theme, use a green tan and beige combination.
3. Select a shower curtain that not only coordinates with your bathroom d cor but also adds interest. If your theme is palm trees, look for a textured curtain. In an ocean-themed bathroom, go with a curtain that is light and moves freely like the ocean waves.
4. Use natural elements to create a relaxed atmosphere in your bathroom. Ideas include shelving units, hampers and baskets made of wicker and rattan. Look for rosewood and teak for frames and armoires. White wicker gives your bathroom a boost, and worn furnishings enhance the casual tropical mood.
5. Use window treatments that let as much natural light in as possible. You may want to go with sheers for a soft look or roman blinds, which will give you more privacy. Shudders are another option with a quick and easy way to get shade and security.
6. Hang wallpaper to enhance your tropical look. Tropical patterns, such as birds, flowers, palm leaves and shells will automatically lift any bathroom. You can also choose textured wallpaper, such as linen or grass cloth.
7. Accessorize to give your bathroom that finishing touch. Look for bamboo boxes and woven baskets to store items. Decanters and soap dishes are another way to add style. Personalize your style by using theme-related hardware, such as shells and starfish.
