Whether you don't want to invest in an entire bathroom remodel, are currently renting or just have a spare weekend ready for refreshing your home, a makeover for your powder room can be pocket-friendly and super simple. Here are five affordable ways to give your bathroom a fresh, new look.
Deep clean
Since you're moving everything out of your bathroom, now is the perfect time to give it a nice deep clean. Get rid of all your old beauty products and things you don't want or need. Then go in and deep clean with your favourite bathroom cleaner and magic erasers. Sometimes, just a deep clean can give you the same feeling as a full-on bathroom renovation.
Don't replace reseal!
Replacing sealant is a small solution that'll make your bathroom feel brand new. Plus, it's cheap to do. All you'll need is a cartridge gun with new sealant and a Stanley knife. Use a Stanley knife to remove the old sealant, slicing through the top and bottom edges at one end before gently pulling it from the wall.
Fill your bath so that the gap between it and the tile are at their widest and use the cartridge gun in one consistent motion to reseal. Leave to dry overnight.
Hang bathroom wallpaper
Breathe new life into a powder room with bold floral wallpaper. This is a great way to create an upscale look at an affordable price tag. Opt for a temporary peel-and-stick wallpaper to save even more on your bathroom update. Finish the glamorous look with gold fixtures, hardware, and accessories.
