Unleashing Your Bathroom’s Hidden Potential's featured image

The space above your toilet is often neglected and sometimes completely forgotten. But what if we told you this underutilized zone holds the key to unlocking a whole new level of bathroom brilliance? Forget the predictable shelf, it’s time to unleash your creativity and explore unexpected ways to transform this often-ignored spot.

Let There Be Art

Hang a captivating piece of artwork – a framed botanical print, a whimsical illustration or even a textured woven wall hanging. Choose something that complements your bathroom’s theme and reflects your personality. After all, a little artistic flair can transform a functional space into a personal oasis.

Embrace the Greenery

Bring the outdoors in with a touch of greenery. Install a hanging planter with a trailing succulent or a shelf holding a small air plant. Live plants not only add a pop of colour and life but also improve air quality – a win-win for your bathroom space.

Light Up Your Life

Swap the standard bathroom light for something more decorative. A vintage pendant light or a set of sconces can add a touch of elegance and provide a more focused glow. Consider installing a dimmer switch to create the perfect ambiance for relaxation or a morning pick-me-up.

Wooden Ladder Charm

A leaning wooden ladder adds instant charm and unexpected storage. Use it to hang hand towels from a rung, scarves, hair accessories or to display decorative items.

Get Crafty (But Keep it Practical)

Craft a DIY display shelf specifically designed to fit above your toilet. Use reclaimed wood for a rustic touch or paint it a vibrant colour to add a burst of personality. Showcase seashells collected on a beach vacation, decorative apothecary jars filled with bath salts or even a small collection of your favourite novels (waterproof covers recommended!).
