Are you thinking about redoing your bathroom before the end of the year? Great idea! Look through this list of easy bathroom updates to do to give it a quick (and beautiful!) update:
New Paint
Paint is an extremely easy way to update a bathroom and the good thing about it is that you don’t have to spend a ton of money or energy updating a room with paint - it is relatively easy for you to do yourself, or for you to hire out. If your goal is to create a relaxing space, consider choosing neutral and natural colors such as greens, taupes, cream, etc. New paint completely updates a space and it has the ability to make it as relaxing or upbeat as you’d like it to be.
Deep Soaking Tub
A deep soaking tub is perfect for relaxation. Throw in your bubble bath, essential oils, bath bombs, or whatever you use and you are set. There are so many great options for deep soaking tubs now and new potential buyers in the future will appreciate your renovation so much. If getting a new tub would significantly improve your bathroom, then it will more than likely boost up your property value a lot, as well when you replace it.
Walk-In Shower
My friend was actually just considering renovating her shower because it has worn down a lot. Her home was built a little over twenty years ago and the shower has not been updated since, so the grout is wearing down and the shower was actually not properly waterproofed, so it is a huge risk of a leak. She was originally going to put in a walk-in shower and I LOVED the idea. Apparently, she cannot do it anymore because they would have to re-route a window and that would cost $8,000+. That would be a great deal if she were staying there a while, but since she’s not, might as well just do the less expensive option. But, the walk-in shower is an amazing idea if: 1) you don’t have to re-route a window or 2) you will be in the home for a while. Add in a huge bench, 2 shower heads, and a recessed shelf and you will have a shower made for a king or queen!
Upgraded Toilet
Old toilets are one of the biggest water wasters in your house. They consume about 3.5 to 7 gallons of water per flush, which is a lot for one use. In contrast, new toilets only use an average of 1.6 gallons per flush. If you want an eco-friendly bathroom, then you may want to switch to a water-efficient macerating toilet.
Heated Floors
Is there anything more luxurious than heated floors? I don’t think so! Apparently, a heated flooring system is relatively inexpensive, as well, with the average cost being under $500 for the majority of bathrooms. If you are re-doing the flooring in your bathroom, it might be worth the small extra bit to add on a heating element. There are a few options when it comes to a heat source, so do your research beforehand!
If there is absolutely any renovation to do to a bathroom (or a kitchen, for that matter), it would be to upgrade your countertops!

If you do not want to do any physical renovations, but you still want to get a calm and updated look, you could always add decor pieces to your room. One of the things that I love adding in is house plants! Why? Because you can still get an ‘earthy,’ peaceful feeling by adding houseplants to your bathroom. This not only helps set a relaxing and calming tone for your bathroom, but the plants will also naturally purify your air, which is always a bonus!
