Holiday Crunch Time: 10 Quick Bathroom Upgrades

With the holidays closing in, the last thing many homeowners want to do is dive into a full-on bathroom renovation. Yet if you feel your bathroom is in need of a holiday facelift, there are still a few small bathroom remodeling ideas you can incorporate into what is perhaps the most-used room in your home!

Make Your Bathroom Look & Feel Like New

If you’ve got a weekend to spare, you still have time to add …

New toilet. This won’t cost much, and if you switch from an older standard toilet to a new high-efficiency unit, you can save up to 18,000 gallons of water a year!
New lighting. See your bathroom in a whole new light—literally! This is a quick swap that can easily cost less than $100.
New faucets and showerheads. These make a world of difference in a bathroom. Make sure to choose new fixtures in coordinating styles and/or finishes.
New hardware. Coordinate all the metals in your bathroom for a put-together look: towel bars, toilet paper holders, cabinet pulls, etc.
New storage. This doubles as bathroom décor, so adding shelves, baskets and other creative storage solutions is a win on multiple fronts.
New textiles. Coordinating textiles and soft accents like rugs, towels and shower curtains can help set the tone in a bathroom.
New mirror. This is a major focal point in a bathroom, and one that can really brighten up the space.
New vanity. Give your vanity a facelift by refinishing or repainting your cabinets or even replacing the countertop and sink.
Fresh coat of paint. Nothing makes a bathroom look better than a quality paint job. You don’t even need to repaint the whole bathroom—an accent wall can do wonders!
Fresh air. Don’t underestimate the impact of indoor air quality. Air out your bathroom and introduce pleasant scents for a nice final touch. Plants are also a great way to improve air quality.
