Choosing The Right Bathroom Accessories Can Transform Your Home

Bathroom accessories today offer endless scope. They can be used to underline the existing architecture and décor, or create a unique and exciting contrast to the rest of the house.



Your bathroom is integral to your entire lifestyle. Just as with the kitchen, family life revolves around it, so it must be equally functional and attractive. However, with the right accessories an otherwise clinical and uninspiring space can become a warm and inviting retreat – be it a comforting sanctuary at the end of a busy working day, or a place to splash with the kids.



Bathroom accessories cover an entire plethora of furnishings and plumbing options. Some jobs, for example installing a toilet roll holder or shelf unit, require minimal DIY skills. Others, such as installing heated towel rails and power showers, need a more professional touch. We at Wickes DIY have pages of ideas in our bathroom accessories catalogue, many of which take just a few minutes to install – and make an instant difference to your bathroom.



If your bathroom is very small, you may feel there's no room to add anything more. However, there's a whole range of bathroom accessories that are specially designed to make the most of your space. Chrome has the effect of reflecting light, thus making the room feel light and airy and this can be enhanced with clever lighting. That absolute essential of all bathrooms – the mirror – can be used in lots of exciting ways to create the illusion of space.



If you plan to redecorate your bathroom, it gives you the opportunity to create a whole new look. White ceramic ware is the rule these days – it works in so many ways – but it can make the larger bathroom feel a little bare, especially if it has been tiled. The addition of a few sticks of bathroom furniture, such as a nice plant on a corner stand and a Lloyd loom chairs style, plus the right bathroom accessories will make all the difference and instantly bring your décor scheme to life. Here's a big tip – buy furniture like chairs, occasional tables and such like from garden conservatory ranges as they're built to be damp proof.



Another tip is to accessorise your bathroom with fixtures in the same range, for an upmarket look. We at Wickes DIY sell soap dishes, toothbrush holders, mirrors, towel rails, toilet roll holders, bins and toilet brushes in matching styles that range from modernist chrome to rustic wood. Once installed, they look very chic.



Don't forget it's the most functional things that can make all the difference. Don't spoil your lovely beech wood bathroom accessories with a cheap plastic toilet brush, or a hard plastic toilet seat that bangs every time you close it. Invest in a smart wooden or plastic soft-close seat, and buy a toilet brush which matches your other accessories. Add soft, directional lighting and a few other decorative touches, and you'll have a throne room fit for the Queen.
