While the bathroom may be one of the most important rooms in the house, it is also one of the quickest to suffer from wear and tear. Before long, we all end up with a bathroom that just looks old. Rather than buy a new bathroom, which can cost a lot, we often just leave it a little bit longer and make do with what we have. This does not have to be the case though, and many homeowners are finding that following a few simple processes allows them to have a bathroom that looks new and expensive too.
Get Some New Taps
New taps are an absolute must when it comes to getting that expensive, yet not expensive upgrade for your bathroom. It's amazing how different your existing suite can look with new chrome, silver or gold bathroom accessories. If you can, splash out on a full set of accessories, including soap dishes, toothbrush holders, taps and loo roll holder. You'll find there are huge ranges of both classic and extravagant or modern taps out there. All you need is your imagination.
Make Your Lighting More Extravagant
One way to make your bathroom look more expensive than it is involves the lighting you have in the room. Lighting can have a massive impact, and one of the ways to ensure that impact brings a little sophistication to your bathroom is to simply go for a bigger, better lighting fixture.
There are many chandelier effect lights that are now available. Fitting flush to the ceiling, they immediately add a touch of grandeur to the room, and make for an overall more extravagant experience. It’s very easy to find one and they are not expensive. But the impact is huge.

Get some lush plants
This is certainly not an option everyone considers, but putting plants in the bathroom immediately make the space seem larger than it is. And the extravagance factor is definitely increased.
Buy a few plants that are able to thrive in a bathroom atmosphere and then watch as the room suddenly becomes a little different and more luxurious. There are plenty of plants out there that can do this, and they will really make the space seem a little more exciting, and less humdrum.
Invest in quality towels
One of the essentials in the bathroom is the towel. And this is where so many people are able to make a big difference as regards the looks of the room. Change the towels you have for more luxurious or rich towels and you will immediately have an element of luxury added to your room.
If that isn’t enough for you, add a couple more details such as changing the towel rail in the room for something that looks a little fancier. Again, like a lot of these ideas, this won’t cost the Earth. If you change the towels and the rail, you will see a very positive impact upon the room.
Make the mirror stand out
If there is one part of a bathroom that really lifts the space if done well, it is the mirror. Consider finding a mirror that is slightly out of the ordinary, or just plain exotic. Perhaps find something with sparking diamantes or with a glittery edging. There is nothing like a bit of sparkle to add a touch of luxury to any room after all. Hanging this in the bathroom means that you can give the space a little lift and it will certainly catch the eye.
Bathroom mirror with gems
With a larger or more ornate mirror you are creating a focal point. The more of an impact it has, the more luxurious a place will feel.
Try the above ideas and you should find that the bathroom becomes more like a space that costs a lot of money to put together.
