Do you decorate your bathroom?

Usually we always decorate other parts of our home. Living room, kitchen, bedroom. But a lot of times we not even bother to really decorate the bathroom. Back in my parent house is actually hard to put up some decoration, because it's not a dry bathroom. Here in US actually easier because they are dry bathroom. I notice that some of my friend reallt put an effort to get matching shower curtains plus all accesories (like toothbrush holder, tissue holder ) in one theme. But some of houses just live it as plain as it can, as long as it clean, they never bother to do anything fancy in it. How about yours?

HI ibuemma Yeah I am one of those that decorate my bathroom. Right now I cant though. I live in a camper and there is no room for decorations. In my previous house I had my bathroom decorated in American. I had the outer blue fabric shower curtain, inner white shower curtain,uncle sam on the toliet and wooden stars hanging on the wall. Oh yeah dark blue rugs and the all the sink containers in blue and red. It was really cute. I can't wait to do it again..

I definitely decorate my bathroom without decoration I think that it doesnt make it a real bathroom. Right now my bathroom is decorated of Polka Dots I just love it. I don't try to make them all fancy but at least something that people will love when they enter the bathroom from your house. For me Fashion is all it matters not fancy. :-)

Being that the house that we are living in now, I want to decorate the entire house. The bathroom is somewhat decorated at this point. We've actually remodeled the entire bathroom so that was the start of decorating our bathroom. The floors are a deep green marble. The walls are a seafoam green color. The shower surround is sand colored with sea glass mosaic stones at the top. Then, the shower curtain is an under the sea design with dolphins and fish and coral on it. I really want to make a couple of wall hangings for in there too.

In my experience, I've only ever put a lot of time and effort into decorating a bathroom is when I would just be moving in. It was a new and exciting venture. It was part of making it my home.

I keep putting it off. I'm not sure why. It's just our bathroom here rarely being use by the guess. They use the other half bathroom. I have little decoration in there.

Hi ibuemma, My bathroom just underwent a total remodeling, which I basically have no control over, since I rent. So the end result is a brand new shower with a glass door and light brown beautiful paneling, which makes it look like some rich person's bathroom. It also has a sculptured sink and a very updated commode. Two nice cabinets were added, one open and one closed glass door. The bathroom is now very modernized, but the only thing I could do would be to put in matching tissue holder, glass or plastic holder, matching rug and toilet seat top, but I feel that would take away from the understated look it now has, so I leave it in its modern sort of plain but stylish non-decorated look. =:o) Take care.

That's sound stylish. Somehow, bathroom is always the last room that being decorated.

Well, just the other night I was looking at all the excess stuff that you can use if you redo your bathroom as we just recently moved into a New home we just bought and have been trying to decide how to do each room up. Right now we have not really done much with any room, but am in the process of slowly working at it, as $$ allows as well. But in reality don't you want your Bathrooms to look nice when you have guests over as well?

Hey, No we don't really decorate our own bathroom, I just love to have the bathroom really nice and clean. But the house where we actually live in is quite old and that. But if it would be my house, I would just merely renovate thew hole bathroom. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

Hi, ibuemma Yes, I decorate our bathroom. Our bathroom has some shelves and a cabinet. I placed my favorite books on the shelves together with some scented candles and other figurines. I rearrange them whenever I feel like it. I also placed a framed cross-stitched tulips that my husband made on one wall and some decorative air freshener on top of the pink water tank. It's a girl's bathroom Take care!

My bathrooms have matching decor of shower curtain with toothbrush holder and soap dish. Plus I have fake roses in a vase with two pictures hanging up. I also have a dish of seashells and a candle in my one bathroom. The other one is also decorated with matching shower curtain and other accessories and has one picture. Each room should be decorated as nice as you can afford. It doesn't have to be fancy just pretty enough.

Unfortunately, I don't do any decorations in the bathroom. Like you said, the bathrooms here are mostly wet. The only thing that I have remembered to put inside the bathroom was a small plant. I must admit that it created life out of the boring looking bathroom.

Hello Ibuemma, I like this discussion! For me, I like to visit a clean and nice bathroom everyday. But I can say I am not a good person in decorating. I do have a set of bathroom accessories of toothbrush holder, toilet paper holder and a matching big mirror. I do put some fancy wall stickers just to have some fun of it, for the kids of course. Apart of this, nothing special about my bathroom. I am thinking to add a small pot plant in my bathroom, is it a good idea? Anywhere, most important is people want to go for the bathroom for pee or poo or shower, not to sit there for hours. Why not take the time to decorate the living hall and bed room. Last, do you think people will hang some pictures in the bathroom?

i am the type of person who loves to do home decoration. i love to sew curtains for the living room and bedrooms. i also like to hang curtains in the bathroom. yes, i have some matching accessories in the bathroom which also match with the rugs. i can do this because i choose non-expensive items just so the bathroom looks nice. i can change curtains so easily because i can sew them myself either from new cloths or from recycled ones.

I haven't had my own bathroom. But I will decorate it. I do value the bathroom. When I take a shower or have a bath, this room means much to me.

I have not decorated my bathroom. I do have one picture on the wall but that is all. My shower curtain is not fancy just plain and does not match the rug in the bathroom. I have seen some friends bathroom who have different things hang on the wall and their shower curtain are very fancy.
