Upgrade your bathroom with stylish accessories
In this article, we will unlock the potential of your bathroom by exploring a wide range of accessory ideas that can elevate your space from ordinary to extraordinary. Whether you seek organisation, style, or convenience, we take a look at soap dispensers, bath mats, laundry bins and a range of other accessories that will transform your daily routine into a luxurious experience.
Soap dispenser
Having lots of different bathroom products, with different coloured bottles and labels on your surfaces can give your bathroom a cluttered look. That's why we recommend purchasing a soap dispenser. These can transform an unsightly soap bottle into a beautiful accessory that blends into the style of your bathroom. For the ultimate in modern, minimalist style, choose a wall mounted soap dispenser.
Toothbrush holder
Similar to toiletry bottles, lots of toothbrushes can create clutter on bathroom surfaces. Toothbrush holders can help prevent this by giving everyone somewhere to store their toothbrush.
Tumblers are available in a huge range of styles, so you can find the colour that works alongside your bathroom décor. For a striking look, go for a dark toothbrush holder that will contrast with the white of your basin. If you’re looking for something more subtle, white or glass tumblers are an excellent choice.
Shower caddy
The look of even the most beautiful modern shower can be spoilt by the clutter of shampoo and shower gel bottles. Shower caddies are designed to store all these bathroom products to help you keep the space clear.
Shower caddies are available in a range of different sizes and styles to suit your needs. If you’ve got a large number of products to store, choose a multi-tiered caddy which offers lots of space. If you just need storage for a compact en-suite shower, a smaller single basket is ideal.
Shower caddies are usually mounted directly onto your bathroom wall. However, if you don’t want to drill into your tiles or you’re renting your property, choose a hanging shower caddy. These are designed to hang over your shower enclosure, so they can be installed quickly without any drilling.
Bath mat
A bath mat to dry your feet is an essential accessory for any bathroom. As bath mats aren’t a permanent addition to your bathroom décor, we feel this is a great place to add a pop of colour or personality to your bathroom. Whether it’s a vibrant colour, a fun pattern or even a cute slogan, this is one bathroom accessory that can bring a personal touch to your bathroom space.
On the other hand, if you’re looking to create a more muted, harmonious bathroom space, purchase a bath mat that complements your bath and hand towels.
Bathroom plants
With smooth porcelain and sleek chrome finishes, our bathrooms can often feel quite cold and uninviting. Bathroom plants will bring natural colours and shapes into these spaces, helping to create a more relaxing and inviting environment.
Plants can also bring other benefits to your bathroom. They can help to reduce excess moisture, lower stress levels and improve air quality.
Candles
For many of us, the bathroom is a place where we can escape from the stresses of modern life. A space where we can sneak half an hour to take a relaxing soak and unwind. However, bathroom lighting can often be too harsh to create a truly calming environment, which is why we recommend keeping some candles close by.
A few candles placed around your bathroom will create the ideal level of low light that will turn your bathroom into a relaxing oasis.
Waste bin
A waste bin is essential if you want to keep your bathroom tidy and even though this isn’t the most glamorous of bathroom accessories, that doesn’t mean you need to hide it away. From sleek white, to pastel pink or striking matt black, bathroom bins are available in a range of beautiful finishes that will enhance the overall aesthetic of your bathroom.
Laundry bin
The bathroom is a place where dirty clothes accumulate, so make sure you keep everything tidy with a laundry bin.
Whether you want a dark laundry bin to contrast with white walls, or a traditional hamper style laundry bin for a more muted look, there’s a huge range for you to choose from.
Toilet roll holder
Bring a touch of style to an otherwise unglamorous accessory with a beautifully designed toilet roll holder.
From striking matt black to sleek chrome, toilet roll holders are now available in a huge range of different styles and colours to complement your bathroom.
Floor standing toilet roll holders are a flexible option that can be placed anywhere in your bathroom. They also don't require you to drill into the wall, which makes them ideal for renters who want to upgrade their bathroom.
Towel ring
Having somewhere to dry your hands is essential, so make sure you install a towel ring close to your basin.
Towel rings are available in a range of beautiful finishes, so whatever the colour of your vanity unit, you can find the perfect towel ring to complement it.
Toilet brush
A toilet brush is a tool that will make toilet cleaning quick, easy and hygienic. However, these are usually seen as an essential item, rather than something that will add to the style of your bathroom.
Toilet brushes are now available in a range of stunning modern designs, so they can be an accessory that you want to keep on display, rather than hide behind your toilet. With beautiful angular lines and a selection of stunning finishes, you can find a toilet brush that perfectly complements your bathroom.
Whether you want to create a spa-like atmosphere for relaxation or simply add some practical touches, there's an accessory for every need. Take a look at our bathroom accessories collection and start transforming your own bathroom!
