Your guest bathroom is probably one place you make sure to keep clean and ready for any unexpected visitors. The last thing we want is for guests to have an unpleasant experience in our home, especially in the bathroom. Have you ever considered taking your bathroom to the next level with unusual bathroom accessories? Each bathroom has the standard sink, toilet and shower, but you can make your bathroom stand out with quirky fixtures and interesting decorations and accessories.
play with mirrors
Mirrors can make your bathroom appear more spacious, while also providing decoration. Instead of the traditional wall mirror that spans a large space, consider adding a handful of ornate oval mirrors or square mirrors to the wall. If you want a larger wall mirror, choose a large oval mirror as your primary mirror, and then add smaller oval mirrors on the wall and above the toilet to complement the larger mirror. You can even have the edge of the glass in different colors to match your walls and towels.
Keep the mirror theme going by taking small reflective tiles and adding them to the edge of the tub and sinks. This will give your bathroom a cohesive look while still looking original and stylish.
Add unique sculptures and accessories
Many people don’t think of sculptures and accessories as unusual bathroom accessories, but by choosing unique sculptures and accessories, you can give your bathroom a unique look. The sculptures can tie together a bathroom theme or act as a focal point on the sink or displayed on a corner shelf. A nautical theme could have sculptures of sailboats or lighthouses, or you could use a genuine shell painted in a nautical theme as the focal point. If your bathroom isn’t themed, choose an abstract sculpture to display on the sink or on a corner table or shelf.
Bathroom accessory manufacturers have gotten creative over the years. While the traditional faucet and handles are still common fixtures in most bathrooms, many people are turning to more unusual fixtures. There are push button accessories that activate a waterfall like faucet, handles that resemble hands, sinks that look like beautiful ceramic bowls with matching faucets, and whimsical children’s accessories that attach to sinks, toilets, and walls. If you don’t want to add a lot of bathroom accessories, splurge on a unique sink and faucet to impress guests.
Create more storage with shelves and baskets
You can create unique storage areas in your bathroom with shelves and baskets. A large wicker basket can hold rolled towels, and you can top it off with a fun pillow for color or whimsy. Corner shelves will display sculptures, paintings or bathroom essentials, keeping the sink area free of clutter. While baskets and shelves look ordinary, it’s how you accent them that makes them stand out. Unusual bathroom accessories don’t need to be all that unusual to impress your guests. All your accessories have to do to make an impact is represent your style and personality.
