It's the first room you usually visit when you wake up and the last stop before bed at night. Did you also know that the average person spends a total of seven years of his or her lifetime in the bathroom? It's no wonder that you would want to make this room as attractive and comfortable as possible. Here are some ways that you can add touches of luxury to your bathroom.

  • It's black and white when it comes to current trends in bathroom decor. While it's still popular to have a natural feel to your bathroom by using lots of wood, many designers are now staining that wood in either very light tints or mahogany shades.
  • Another trend is incorporating glass tiles in your bathroom to better reflect natural light. Choosing pale colors for your walls and flooring like ecru or an icy blue will also reflect light well and can create a calming oasis.
  • Arrange a plush chair in your bathroom for a comfortable spot where you can apply body lotion, comb your hair or sit and relax as you wait for the tub to fill.
  • Install a towel-heating rod so you can wrap yourself in a warm, fluffy towel as you step from the bath or shower.

Infuse the bathroom with your personality by hanging some of your favorite artwork. Be sure to take your artwork to a professional framer who can help protect it from high humidity.
