Bathroom Ideas: 10 ways to refresh your bathing space on a budget - Since the bathroom is one of the most intimate spaces of the home, with guests tending to use cloakroom if available, it can sometimes be overlooked when it comes to style. However, we spend a lot of intimate time there and the look and functionality of the room can really make a difference to today, so it is important to exploit its full potential. We took a look at how you can transform your bathroom and make it a more pleasant place to spend time without blowing your budget.

Refresh your towels
A bathroom will always feel a bit old if your towels are past their best, so make sure they do not put your downstairs. They are a great investment that you use every day, and color code them with the system will make the room feel loved.

Mix them
The beauty of a bathroom is that the elements do not have to match - it's your little sanctuary and it can be as eclectic as you want. Works that do not have a place on your shelves, chairs that are nowhere else, or trinkets cluttering the other rooms can all be used in a bathroom to create an interesting and unusual space.
We bought an old trunk Gumtree and upcycled with paint chalk to create a convenient storage space for our towels. However, it is important not to overdo it, you do not want the space to become cluttered.

Be adventurous with your shower curtain
a shower curtain is one of the fastest and easiest ways to update a bathroom. By virtue of its size, it will be a very visible element in the room, so why not be bold and make a statement characteristic? If you do not want to stand out, try replacing a tired curtain with a fresh neutral style -. It will still do wonders to lift the room, and it will not break the bank, either

Feed with a color statement
a great way to add character to a room without spending too many pieces money is to choose a strong color you like and bring in accessories. It makes the regime feels well thought out, and the good news is that if you decide you're done with that particular color in a year, it will be easy to change.

Using what you
Think creatively about the bits and bobs you might have lying around, and how they can be processed and reused in your bathroom. Whether a watering like that, an old vase or bucket, it could the next eccentric (and free) new addition to your bathroom.

handles update for a nautical look
We love the detail rope on the drawers - it is a way yet inexpensive so simple to add a touch of interest to your bathroom and give it a different feel.
Rope can be purchased in hardware stores and craft shops, and it's not that large handles ... If you are feeling crafty you can decide to wrap some around a curtain pole or even a mirror - it's a great way to bring the nautical look in your bathroom.

Play and display
in the bathrooms, we tend to hide things away in cabinets and boxes. But the built-in storage can be expensive, think about how you view things in a more creative way. metal storage boxes, decorative boxes and pretty bottles can all be used to create a more interesting display if the storage is not present. Markets are a great place to pick up bottles of vintage all shapes and sizes, that not only look beautiful, but practical, too.

Contrary to popular belief, metal bathroom accessories, such as brackets of loo rolls, can actually be updated easily and inexpensively provided you choose similar to the originals.
Take a look outside the usual bathroom stores in places like Dwell and Habitat, the stock fairly cheap sanitary and elegant. Make sure toilet paper holders, cistern and other metal items in the bathroom of the match to put together. Think style five stars on a budget inn.

suspend a little green
There was a bit of a revival of the 1970s recently, both in fashion and interiors. A particularly fun element that tends to present is macrame planters hanging from the ceiling. They become really big, and we can not see why you do not want to use them in a bathroom.
There are cool retailers that stock some great hangers (Eleanor Bolton, A Rum Companions and Out There Interiors to name a few), but if you really want to save the pennies, why not have a go at doing it yourself? There are many online tutorials - all you need is a rope and a few other bits and bobs

Work in boxes
We're big boxes of fans - not only are they stylish, with stay strong industrial look, they are also cheap. You can buy them at around £ 20, but we suggest you keep your eyes open in the streets, in the markets and on websites such as Gumtree and eBay.
They make for incredible storage for towels or cosmetics, and some paint could attach your color all together.
