Bare Floor or Bathroom Rugs
You spend a lot of time in the bath. Think about it. From morning till you get ready for bed, the bathroom is a place you visit. Here are some decorating ideas to make your small room more pleasant.
It is really surprising to me how little thought many people put into their bathrooms. I have many friends with immaculately decorated homes who have ugly, tattered bathroom area rugs.
A lot of people don't even go in for bathroom remodeling. The bathroom is such an afterthought for many people that they never get around to making it look good. Nevertheless, a nice new set of bathroom rugs, Some new bathroom tiles for the sink, and maybe a new cabinet can do wonders. For less than a thousand dollars, you can make a drab and dreary bathroom look fabulous.
Types of rugs for the bath
Some people like to use thin bathroom rugs. After all, a lot of people use their rugs to stand on after they get out of the shower. Rather than dripping off inside the shower, they just get on to the bathroom rug, pick up the towel, and dry off.
I have a different way of looking at things. For me, bathroom rugs should be comfortable. After all, I go into the bathroom in the morning in my bare feet.
Keep your feet warm
The tile flooring is always cold, so it is nice to have a comfortable rug to stand on. Although this style of shower rugs can get mildewed if you are not careful, that is easily remedied. You just have to remember to dry off while you're in the shower, something that is not hard to do.
Use a set
One bathroom rug in the center of the bathroom is a decorating thought. Although I admit that this looks good, I always prefer bathroom rugs sets.
You really need several different bathroom rugs to cover the floor. You need one in front of the toilet to put your feet on while you're sitting down, one in front of the shower, and perhaps one in front of the sink as well.
Using several small rugs is better than one big one because they're much easier to clean. Still, you can keep your feet warm no matter where you are standing. All in all, it is a great compromise, combining functionality with ease of maintenance.
Area rug color scheme
Choosing the right color for your bathroom rugs can be a challenge. You don't want something too bright, but you don't want it to look too dreary. I have always loved the color maroon. It is somewhat soothing, but because it is in the spectrum of red it will not put you to sleep. It seems like a perfect interior decorating choice to me but hey, it's your home and your bath so pick something you really like.
