50 Bathroom Decor Ideas You Will Love

Decorating your bathroom can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re working with limited space. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! Whether you’re dealing with a compact powder room or a cozy master bath, we’ve gathered a collection of our favorite bathroom decor ideas to spark your creativity. From small but impactful updates to clever design tips that maximize functionality, these ideas will transform your bathroom into a stylish and inviting retreat.

Here’s some inspiration to help you make the most of your space easily and confidently.

1. Stylish and Easily Customized Letters

This look is perfect for DIY bathroom designs that just about anyone can do. Simply paint or stain a piece of scrap wood to give it a finished look, then place hooks on it for towels. The letters on the wall are inexpensive at most craft stores but are given a funky look here using some patterned contact paper. If doing something like this, consider sealing the letters so the paper doesn’t become damaged.

2. Pallet Shelves that Incorporate Beauty and Utility

Remember to use the “dead space” between the toilet and the sink. That could be the perfect spot for a beautiful flower arrangement or a few supplies. Rather than searching for a small table that exactly fits your space, creating your own using recycled wood is wise. Pictured here, the wood is a bit distressed, fitting well with shabby chic bathroom designs, but if the wood was painted, it could have a completely different look.

3. Golden Accents to Complete a Classy Look

If you want to feel glamorous, you might be looking for more glamourous bathroom ideas like the one in this photo. With matching makeup brushes, you simply need a fun way to keep them close at hand, and this container doesn’t disappoint. Filled with small glass beads, you can easily store them upright without worrying about them tipping over and touching the other ones. The mason jar has been spray-painted gold to match the brushes, and it serves as a convenient place to put a flower display. With a look like this, you’ll feel like a movie star every time you put your makeup on.

4. Relaxing Theme to Blend New and Old

We’ve already seen a lot of bathroom decor ideas that use the space at the back of the toilet to display decorative items. Still, in this particular bathroom, you have a nice window providing natural light at the back of the toilet. Instead, this design uses the wall space across from the bathroom to get the same effect. The “wood” walls and floor give the space a rustic feel, and the homeowner’s chosen artwork completes that look. The vertical towel hanger is an excellent choice for those who don’t have a lot of horizontal space for towels.

5. Classy Toilet Paper Holder and Shelf

You might not want to think about it, but it’s very common for people to bring phones, books, or electronic devices into the bathroom when they do their business. This cute mini-shelf with the toilet paper roll underneath gives you a place to put that while you finish up. It also offers a visible place to put any room deodorizers that people may want to use. This is one of the most modern bathroom decor ideas on the list, and you can’t say it isn’t convenient.

6. Well-Polished Finishing Touches and Shelf

Sometimes, having a toilet and bathtub so close together can make the space feel cramped, but bathroom ideas like this one make the space feel more open. The photo frames are elegant and fit nicely with the bathroom decor. With a large ledge by the tub, you have the space to store things like a basket of towels or beautiful candles. You’ll feel like royalty when you sink into the waters with those candles burning.

A well-placed sign like this one works well for those needing reminders. Rather than simply putting the words on the wall, as we’ve seen before, the frame around this turns the message into a true work of art. A silhouette might be a simple idea, but it works well for those who want bathroom decor options that are a bit unusual. You could also use the silhouette idea to display pictures of your family or other messages.

8. Black, White, and Gold Bathroom

This picture might seem basic, but there are a lot of bathroom decor elements that you should consider incorporating into your space. The framed art offers a quick message that’s likely to brighten your day whenever you look at it. The bronze containers are a different twist on an idea we’ve seen before, adding a lot of pizzazz to the space. The flowers add that pop of color, but the small dish with the cat is something practical that we haven’t seen before. It’s the perfect place to put your jewelry when you need to remove it.

9. Colorful Letters to Create a Fun Look

If you love eclectic bathroom ideas, this may be the right look. Rather than sticking with letters all in the same font, the designer has searched for different styles, creating a unique appearance. This draws the eye to the message whenever you enter the space because you can always find something new. That’s perfect for kids who need that constant reminder. A simple bar with hooks like this gives you the space you need for everyone in the family to hang their towels.

10. The Classic Black and White Theme

If you have lovely tiled walls and floors in the bathroom, you want decor ideas that will make them stand out. In this case, the tiles are white, so the dark wood around the mirror and the black faucet and drawer pulls offer a nice contrast. With a large enough sink like you see here, the flowering plant offers an opportunity to add color to the space. A holder for the hand soap and lotion and a cover for the tissue box help keep things neat and tie these essential items in with the look.

11. Easy Storage with Mason Jars and Pallets

Some of the best bathroom ideas are the ones that are the most practical. This simple DIY idea allows you to easily contain some of the clutter you typically find in the bathroom while keeping the things you regularly need close. Simply attach small mason jars to a board and hang them up by the sink. You can paint the board in different colors to match the style of your bathroom. An added benefit is that it removes the clutter from the sink, giving you more space in the area for other things.

12. Vintage meets Modern Design Theme

This small space also uses floating shelves, but since the space is a bit larger than the one in the other photo, the homeowner has chosen to use some shelves that don’t cover the entire width of the nook. This allows you to have extra space to hang photos and place bathroom decor a bit taller, like the candles you see here. Adding a matching shelf on the back of the toilet tank is an extra-nice touch that pulls the entire look together. This is great when you need bathroom decoration ideas that incorporate many of your little knick-knacks.

13. Chalk Peach Makeover for Mason Jars

Mason jars are an inexpensive solution for storage, and this picture shows how you can take a simple idea and change it up to fit a variety of bathroom designs. You can have the jars fit in well with any color palette by painting them. It’s also easy to see how different jar sizes can work better for holding different types of objects. A shorter jar, for instance, works better for holding cotton swabs, while taller jars work well for holding makeup brushes. Simply arrange these jars on the bathroom sink or a shelf in the bathroom.

14. Serene Beach Bathroom Décor

Most people find the beach relaxing, so it’s common to see elements of this incorporated into different bathroom ideas. Light blue paint on the walls creates a relaxing environment, while the sea stars and shells set the beach tone. The pegs on this shelf are particularly nice because they can easily hold towels when you’re in the shower. It’s a small detail, but the shower curtain rod is obviously a big step above the one you probably had in your first apartment. It costs a bit more, but it makes a big statement.

15. Color Accent Ideas for a Small Bathroom

Bathroom designs that contrast dark wood with the white porcelain of the toilet and sink area always have a classy look, but they can get boring. Adding a pop of color, like you see here, can really brighten up the place. This designer has incorporated the color from the cherry blossoms into the towels and even the soap. You could easily use the colors of another type of flower as inspiration. Think about sunflowers or lilacs. Another interesting element from this bathroom, is the small bucket of grass hanging between the hand towels. An unexpected detail like this is just the type of thing that can set you apart from others.

16. Modern Gray Comes to Life

You don’t always need a lot of space to get more organized. This simple shelf might be about the size of a medicine cabinet, but everything is out in the open, giving you more opportunities to decorate it. Bathroom decoration ideas like this are both practical (giving you space to store towels and cotton swabs) and beautiful (with additional space for a few plants). Best of all, you can paint this in whatever color you like to fit your style. Remember that a shelf like this will be heavier than floating shelves, so be sure you’re anchoring it into the wall’s studs to ensure it’s secure.

17. Wall Scrabble Letters as Bathroom Decorations

Easy DIY bathroom ideas like this one can make a big statement. The letters here form a crossword puzzle-style reminder to anyone entering the bathroom. You might imagine that this could work well if you have kids who might forget to do these things, but you could also take the concept and change the words to something more suited to your family. Letters like this are typically available in craft stores, and you can paint them to match your shower curtain or bath rug. The striped shower curtain is another nice touch, adding some interest while remaining neutral.

Simple boxes from the craft store can be instantly transformed into shelves that will work with all bathroom ideas. You can see here how the same box can be turned into a vertical shelf with two shelves or a horizontal one with a divider. Both work equally well whether you’re using the shelves to store items like hand towels or extra rolls of toilet paper or as a place to put your decorations. Here, they’ve chosen a beach design with shells and driftwood. You might choose something more fun and colorful in a kids’ bathroom.

19. Chic and Calming Blue Design Theme

A darker blue on the walls in this bathroom still has the calming effect you’re looking for in bathroom decorations while being a bolder choice. The floor in this picture also stands out. Few people choose wood for the floor in a bathroom because it’s not water-resistant, but here, you have the look of light-colored wood. It’s only a look, though. These days, you can find vinyl and laminate tiles that look like wood while being safe for the bathroom. If you’re replacing a floor, be sure to ask about all of your options.

20. Finishing Touches Beach Candle Decor

If you have the space for it, an arrangement like this can be a nice bit of bathroom décor for your room, and it’s easy to make yourself. Simply take an elegant serving dish like this one, fill it halfway with sand, and place a few shells inside. The large candle in the middle provides mood lighting, and LED versions of candles like this offer a safer alternative. Use sand from the craft store rather than sand from the beach to avoid causing a stink.

Here’s a fascinating look for those who want bathroom ideas that don’t focus on the beach. The large letter S and the “hello” message are interesting because they’re three-dimensional rather than being printed as a picture. They go nicely with the spikey sculpture and abstract photograph. In addition to the artistic elements, there are also practical elements, such as storing the tissues and towels in a classy way. The toilet paper pyramid is a different way to store the extra rolls, showing you that you don’t necessarily need to place them inside a container.

22. Counter Decor to Create a Spa Atmosphere

A silver serving tray offers a convenient place to store some decorative items, and here it goes well with the luxurious marble countertop. The large glass vase holding the candle will allow it to cast a tranquil goal for a nighttime bath. Bathroom decor ideas incorporating fresh flowers are always nice, but remember that they’ll require upkeep. Fortunately, one of these benefits is that you’ll constantly be able to slightly change the look of your bathroom by purchasing a new type of flowers each week. Fake flowers can also work if you don’t want the hassle, but dust them regularly.

23. Floating Pallet Shelves for Storage and Design

You don’t have much room to work with in a small space like this one, so choosing floating shelves that completely fill the narrow space is the right choice. Since the shelves don’t have legs that need to sit on the floor, you don’t have to worry about finding space for the cleaning brush and a small trash can. Once you have these shelves, you can fill them with any type of bathroom decor. This homeowner has chosen a friendly message and some practical items like extra towels and flowers to brighten the look.

24. Navy, White, and Gold Greetings

For a dramatic update to your restroom, a bold splash of navy blue pops with the right accessories. The picture-perfect white subway-tiled shower rinses the space with coolness as the gold fixtures work their magic to tie the look together. Have a little fun with the unique signs to help the masters of the space face the day head-on.

Three isn’t a crowd regarding these cute and fun bathroom decor signs. With three straightforward commands: get naked, relax, and unwind, channeling your inner comfort is easy. You could buy these at most crafter markets or create them as a quick DIY project. Arrange them together on your wall space or spread them out for a different look. Either way, this triple threat is sure to feel right at home.

26. Wash Your Worries Down the Drain Bathroom Decor

Put your mind at ease as you wash your worries away and send them down the drain after a relaxing, hot bath. Draw your favorite bubble bath and light a few candles to prepare for your perfect evening of pampering. The old-world tilework and classic pottery pieces add to the luxurious spa-like feel of this master bathroom. You deserve some “me” time, and what better way to spend it than in the comfort and convenience of your own home?

27. His and Hers Wooden Cut Out Restroom Identification Display

The iconic his and hers symbols prevalent in most public restrooms can be just as fun in your bathroom at home. Place them on a shelf as a fun decorative piece, or set them separately in your kids’ bathrooms. Freestanding and fun, these pieces are unique and provide a cute conversation piece for your guests. They would even make an attractive housewarming gift for a friend. They are a worthwhile addition to your bath space, created in a modern grey color.

30. Modern Farmhouse Metal and Wood Bathroom with Shiplap

Shiplap saves the day in your small bathroom space, laying the foundation for your new modern farmhouse decor. Your wood and metal shelf will rest easy as it offers you style and storage at the same time. The rounded mirror above the sink echoes the round flesh-mounted shelf brackets to tie the overall design together. And why not get to the point with a wooden sign declaring the space “farmhouse” in pretty script?

31. Triangles and Tassels Taking Center Stage in the Bathroom Decor

Tie all your bathroom decor pieces with the common theme of triangles and tassels. Screaming fun and frolic, this pattern is subtly set in a black-and-white palette to maintain its modern feel. No piece is left out as this pattern covers the trashcan, rug, shower curtain, hand towel, soap dispenser, and toothbrush holder. Any wall color would work in the background, but the grey here keeps the contemporary style alive.

32. Simple Shiplap Love Your Face Bathroom

Make every square inch count in your half bath as you set the background in shiplap and embody the complete modern farmhouse feel. A quaint and cute little sign adds a personal touch while bringing a smile to everyone who enters. The square warm brown sign perfectly contrasts the white shiplap wall.

33. Storage Galore with Woven Baskets and Fun Bathroom Sign

Amp up your storage space by placing woven baskets on the top of the toilet and securing them to the wall above it. The rectangular one is perfect for stashing your extra rolls of toilet paper. Even though it’s apparent no one wants to change it, at least it’s there. Then, the mail letter baskets overhead work wonderfully for extra towels or even a small houseplant. No matter how you fill your storage space, it’s nice to have it on hand when you need it.

34. Simply Spunky and Fresh Bathroom Decor

Increase the humor as you place a part of your personality in the pit stop of the home.

35. Shabby Chic Repurposed Modern Mason Jar Storage Rack

A scrap piece of wood and a set of four mason jars are the base materials you’ll need to complete this incredibly awesome and easy DIY organizational rack. Pick your favorite stain to get the desired wood color of your choice. Pictured is a rich and warm deep brown that blends into almost any existing decor scheme. The mason jars are secured with metal rings to add an industrial feel to the overall look. Although this storage rack doesn’t take up much space, it delivers on its purpose. It is a cool way to house your essential girly goodies like cotton balls, hairbrushes, ponytail elastics, makeup brushes, cotton swabs, and any other go-to you use daily. These everyday essentials are available but off the counter, making them a top-notch, repurposed modern mason jar storage rack.

36. The Golden Blend of Modern and Rustic

Shelving above the toilet is a great way to use the space in a small bathroom effectively, but the typical store-bought shelves are flimsy and cheap-looking. This interesting twist on the premise is perfect for those who love rustic bathroom designs. The “shelf” is more of a frame on which you can hang a towel or a metal basket to hold things. In this case, the wood is weathered and matches the wood in the table used as a vanity. Re-purposing a small desk is a nice touch for making the sink look different, but the basket underneath still provides hidden storage.

37. Just Peachy Keen Shower Curtain

This nature within your bathroom adds a fun charming, interesting decoration that doubles as a gorgeous design piece.

40. Modern Industrial Black and White Wash Room

It’s never too late to update your washroom; a little money will go a long way in this smallest of the rooms in your home. Slap on a fresh coat of your favorite shade in the white paint family to make a clean and fresh backdrop to start your update. Next, you’ll delight in some vintage signs to identify the space and a plant or two. Add an industrial hook to hang your hand towel, and then finish off the look by framing your mirror with reclaimed rustic wood. The combination of textures and the black and white color combination will make any homeowner or guest make the most of the moment when they have to go.

41. Old World Meets Modern in this Masterpiece Bathroom Decor

All white is always in style, and this large bathroom space is a perfect example of why. From floor to ceiling, the crisp white brightens up the space and draws your eye to the featured elements like the vintage-contemporary tribal print rug, unique brass lighting fixtures, and the blanket ladder that would be the ideal place to hang your towel. The bronze cabinet hardware ties in the lighting fixtures quite nicely. Top it off with a circular black framed mirror above your sink, and you will have a total overhaul and amazing new bathroom space.

Punch it up with a bold sign sharing one of your favorite movie quotes in a black-and-white motif. A small woven basket and a glass bottle-turned mini vase finish off the ledge without overcrowding.

44. Wooden Toilet Topper Catchall for Your Bathroom Extras

Plain and pretty is what you get with this wooden catchall tray. It feels right at home as it rests on the toilet and serves as a collection platter for your little restroom extras. It’s the ideal spot to light that invigorating scented candle to keep stinky odors at bay and continually welcome guests. A single fern frond in a glass vase and a jar of ear swabs are additional pieces that wish to call this catchall home.

45. Slip into Serenity with Natural Light and Perfect Plants

Serenity now, insanity later can become your new mantra as you indulge in the soothing comfort of your plant-lined bathroom decor. With bright, natural light cascading into the room, the plants flourish, and fresh air extends to you as you unwind with your tub tray of goodies.

46. Bold Black Ceiling and Pop of Color Shower Curtain in Modern Bathroom

This modern bathroom checks all the boxes, from the bold black ceiling to the white and black tilework.

Don’t be afraid to mix up your interior design, especially in the bathroom. While it may be the smallest room in your home, it can be the biggest in style. You can stay on-trend with the modern farmhouse design by infusing natural elements like the rustic wooden framed mirrors and the large glass vase filled with flowers, as seen here. Try a little industrial flair with concrete counters, and tie it all together with dark bronze light fixtures and faucets. The clean white cabinets and white and grey tilework are the perfect extra touch.

48. Clean and Cozy Gender Neutral Bathroom Decor

Create a universally appealing space by steering clear of feminine and masculine design and hit the ground running with a look that appeals to both sexes. This fresh and crisp white bathroom looks clean and effortless. A deep wooden slab warms up the otherwise sterile space and is the ideal shelf to house some of your decorations. A trio of sleek silver hooks are great towel hangers and give a much-needed modern feel from the tired towel rings of the past. Complete the look with a mostly white shower curtain and you will make everyone in the family happy.

49. Full of Love and Character Wooden Bath Shelves Nook

Utilize every square inch of your square footage in a tight space by capitalizing on the unused room above your toilet or in a small corner.

Now, your bathroom is a seamless transition from your living space as the sleek design can be carried throughout your home.

For many people, the bathroom is just where you go to do your business, but with the right bathroom decorations, you can transform the space into a beautiful sanctuary.

Even a half-bathroom with just a toilet and sink can use a special touch. The right bathroom ideas can make your home feel complete.

Your home’s bathroom decor should fit your personality. While many people choose neutral tones, you can feel free to incorporate bold bathroom designs if that’s what you prefer. Whether your bathroom is a closet-sized room or a spacious ensuite, the little details make your bathroom stand out.
