Update the Decor in Your Bathroom

When renting at The Apartments at Spence Crossing, you needn’t feel stuck with your interior design choices. While you can’t take on any major remodeling projects in a rental, there are ways you can personalize your space without making any permanent changes to your home. One of the easiest and most affordable ways to refresh your interior is in the bathroom. It’s a smaller space, so it’s easy to give it a whole new look with very little effort. And it’s one of the most affordable re-designs you can execute. You won’t break the bank when you choose small upgrades for a big impact. 

One thing that many renters don’t consider upgrading is light fixtures. Whether it’s an overhead light or a small light over the vanity, swapping out your light fixture is an easy and affordable way to change the style of your bathroom. Whether you opt for a light that is classical, ornate, boho or modern, the light fixture will set the tone for your bathroom design. Just make sure you keep the original fixture so that you can reinstall it when you move out. And if you don’t want to swap out the fixture, try experimenting with a new bulb. Warm light in a bathroom is universally flattering, and can change the whole tone of your space. 

Another easy and inexpensive way to refresh your bathroom space is with your towels. Not only can you bring in some new colors and patterns, it’s a treat to have brand-new, plush towels in the bathroom. Living in Virginia Beach, many residents like to incorporate beach colors in their bathroom linens–teal, white, blue, and tan will evoke the relaxing feeling of the seashore. 

When it comes to a bath mat, many people choose a rug that coordinates with their linens. Not only is it functional in keeping your bathroom floor dry (and keeping you safe from slipping on a wet floor), it is a fun way to add to your color palette and overall aesthetic. A soft, plush rug is an easy way to add luxury to your bathroom.

Speaking of linens, you can let that color palette inform your choice of shower curtain. It’s a fun way to make a big statement in a small space. There is a wide range of designs at all price points, and it’s the biggest pop of color that you can get in your bathroom. Whether you opt for florals, geometric patterns, kitschy prints, witty messages, or sheer white, the possibilities are endless!
