We have a small cabinet to keep things off the floor and sink. My personal preference is something white or translucent, and PVC-free.Ģ. In this case we replaced a dingy yellow curtain, and it’s amazing how this simple aesthetic change makes me smile every morning. Actually, this is our first place in the past year that didn’t have a glass screen. Here’s a few things I commonly do in my quick and cheap makeovers:ġ. Since I’ve been moving around so much, this is my fifth bathroom in less than a year. In my opinion, a bathroom is first and foremost a functional space, so bare it shall likely remain. Looking at these photos, I think a small bowl of flowers on top of the cabinet would look lovely however, it’s the only work surface in the entire room, and a decorative object would compete with more practical things (like hairbrushes, toothbrushes, etc.) when the space is in use. I know someone will add “sterile”-but hey, it’s a rental! :) We’re forbidden to paint or hang stuff on the walls, so there’s little opportunity for personalization. By keeping things simple and clutter-free, even a basic bathroom can be serene and soothing. A minimalist bathroom doesn’t have to have marble tile, fancy fixtures, or an orchid on the countertop. Few of us will ever have the kind of spa-like retreats pictured in design magazines, so I thought it’d be fun to show a real life example. Not because it’s particularly special, but because it isn’t particularly ugly-and I know you guys always like pictures. So anyway, I thought I’d share photos of my minimalist bathroom with you today. It’s a special bonus if it’s not covered in garish-colored tiles, or sporting fake wood cabinets. As a renter, I’m just happy if it’s clean, the toilet flushes, and hot water comes out of the taps. I’m always amused when buyers on such shows complain that a bathroom doesn’t have double sinks or a Jacuzzi tub. ![]() We rarely turned it on, except for a few days when sidelined with the flu-at which time we managed to catch some episodes of House Hunters on HGTV. Earlier this year, when we were living in a hotel, we had a TV for the first time in two years.
