• Make the most of the empty space available – add extra storage on top of your toilet tank with a nice looking tray and mount a shelf on the wall above the toilet.
• Keep your bathroom accessories minimal – while you can decorate your bathroom based on your preferences but make sure that it’s not overwhelming so that the space won’t feel crowded and too cluttered.
• Use potted plants and candles to create a comfortable and welcoming ambiance in the bathroom. Greenery like potted plants offer freshness to the room while scented candles provide warmth to the bathroom.
