Fun & Unique Bathroom Decor
1. A bold paint job
When trying to find a way to personalize your bathroom, one of the easiest ways is to paint it. Bathrooms typically are painted in calming, neutral colors such as beige, light blues, and other similar shades. To be unique, choose a bold color!
Darker jewel tones in every color, especially purples and blues are gorgeous choices. Although darker shades tend to make the space feel smaller, feel free to use them if you’re going for a more unique vibe.
2. Peel-and-stick
If you don’t want to commit to painting your bathroom or if you’re looking for some even more bold, peel-and-stick wallpaper or tiles are a great option to use instead! They come in so many different unique patterns and interesting color schemes, that if unique is what you’re looking for, you will definitely find it.
Spoonflower has some gorgeous options, so be sure to check them out! Just make sure that you specifically are buying peel-and-stick that’s meant for the bathroom. If not, moisture can get caught in-between and you don’t want to deal with the consequences of that.
3. Artwork
Maybe you want to leave the walls of your bathroom alone, and we totally get that. If you want to add some decor that’s a little less work and time-consuming, then we suggest grabbing some bold or printed artwork. There are so many places you can get pieces from, including Etsy and Pster Studio. Just remember that whatever artwork you choose to hang, it should either be a latex-coated canvas or sealed for moisture resistance.
4. Mirrors
Of course, every bathroom has mirrors, but you can get a little more creative with it to make it unique. There are plenty of options that differ in the type of frame, the color of the frame, lighting, and more. For example, you can opt for one with a bold frame or an irregular shape. There are so many gorgeous options to make a statement in your space, but choose what works best for you.
5. Shelving
Storage space is something that every bathroom needs, but it’s also another chance to personalize it to your taste. Popular options for bathroom shelving are typically the black or brown floating shelves or ladder shelving. But there are so many fun pieces out there that you would be missing out on.
You could go retro, like these blue and white tiles or even grab this funky wall shelf that looks like a wooden, open medicine cabinet. Regardless, there are plenty of options out there that will fit whatever vibe you’re looking for.
6. Containers
Put down those mason jars, there’s all kinds of unique and stunning types of containers that you could use to store your items in. People seem to love the basic, simple reusable containers, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
But if you’re looking for a more unique piece, I would look into apothecary jars. You can easily get these at any vintage shop, but if you’re looking for something new, you could check out Etsy or Wayfair.
7. Hardware
Another part of your decor that you could change to fit a more unique vibe are your fixtures, including your faucets, cabinet pulls, and towel bars. If you’re looking for customizable or unique pieces, these could get pretty pricey, depending on where you’re looking. If you want to go for a bold look without breaking the bank, all you need is a simple paint job.
8. Lights
If you want to add some unique decor to your bathroom, another great way is by changing your lighting. Unfortunately, lighting can also get pretty pricey, depending on where you’re looking at. For example, Anthropologie has some gorgeous sconce lighting fixtures, but it may be a little too expensive.
Wayfair and IKEA are definitely more budget-friendly for lighting, but remember to make sure any lighting that you get is meant to be in a bathroom.
9. Rugs
Fluffy, white rugs are such a staple to a typical bathroom, but there are so many incredibly fun options out there if you want to be a little more unique. You could honestly scroll for hours on all the funky rugs that are available. Wayfair offers some great options on gorgeous rugs that won’t break the bank, like this cute “Kiss My Feet” bath rug.
Additionally, if you don’t take yourself too seriously, there are also some fun ones over at Urban Outfitters, such as this ticket one. There are even options on Etsy if you would prefer a more personalized option. Regardless of what your style is, there are options out there for you.
10. Holders & accessories
This is one of the best pieces of decor that allows you to get as weird as you want. From your soap dispensers to your toothbrush holder, there are so many options that you add that will give that touch of uniqueness to your space that you want. If you just want a different color and shape, there’s options for you.
Maybe you want a little bit of a design, but nothing too crazy. Or if you’re looking to get really fun, there’s always bold choices such as this cheetah soap dispenser or this cherry-shaped toilet brush.
After seeing all these fun options, we would understand why you would never want just a clear, reusable holder for anything in your bathroom ever again.
11. Vintage
The best option is always saved for last. There was a brief mention of vintage or retro items in the paragraphs above, but we wanted to include it separately. If you’re looking for a great decor piece that will last, you need to go retro.
You will find the most unique items in thrift stores and estate sales, and it’s truly unique depending on how old it is. It may take a little more work on your end to go searching, but you will definitely find at least one item that was worth it.
