How to Make a Small Bathroom Luxurious

Mirrors can add style and the illusion of more area to a small bathroom.

If you are stuck with a small bathroom, you don't necessarily have to settle for an ordinary one. You can transform even a small bathroom space into a luxurious one if you use the right tools and techniques. Making a bathroom luxurious is a combination of using quality building and decorating supplies, along with designs that make the most of your space.

Things You'll Need

• Tile
• Sink
• Mirror
• Lighting
• Hardware
• Shower

Instructions

1. Install tile on the floor and walls, and give the tile an extra "pop" by adding a mosaic border through key areas.

2. Add a glass shower, which not only looks glamorous but also makes the room appear larger.

3. Opt for a high quality pedestal sink rather than a large vanity. Look for sinks with attention to detail, and add high-end knobs.

4. Hang an antique mirror above the sink. Antique style adds a classic look, and the mirror adds a perception of depth to the room.

5. Match the hardware in your shower with the hardware on your sink and toilet. If you use a storage cabinet, match the hardware there as well.

6. Use color to your advantage. Dark woods such as mahogany add a luxurious feel to any wooden furnishings in the room. Light colors on the wall help to make the room feel less cramped.

7. Invest in quality light fixtures. A bright bathroom looks more luxurious than a dimly lit one, and light can also open up the space as well. If possible, install a sky light as well. Having a view of the sky from your bathroom can dramatically affect how large the space feels.
