Think small bathrooms can't be trendy? On the contrary ! And we show you how to make the most of this so important room and how to optimize its layout with a few simple tips!
1. A wooden ladder as a towel rack

A good idea to gain a few square meters while staying in a Shabby Chic style that we love! A diverted object is always useful for the arrangement of a small bathroom, all you have to do is drop off your towels. For those who prefer the more classic look, some brands sell "ladder furniture" which can accommodate towels but also decorative items or others.
2. A flashy shower curtain
With a stylish shower curtain, you can give your mini bathroom a new look in seconds. Perfect for a space with a boho look, models with oriental-inspired patterns or tropical prints are very fashionable!

4. Choose light tones
The more light and bright colors you put in your bathroom, the bigger it will look! Light shades reflect light and give more space, while darker colors absorb light and reduce the size of the room. White, cream and gray are your best allies for small bathrooms. If you want a little more color, use them in splashes.
5. A very designer toilet paper holder
Everything, really everything in your small powder room can now turn out to be extraordinary. So why not the toilet roll holder? Perfect for saving space while remaining stylish!
6. A large mirror with a more trendy frame
Mirrors reflect light and that's exactly what you need for your small bathroom! Especially in bathrooms without windows, every opportunity to provide more light is important.
Bet on a mirror with a more trendy frame. Brass, wood, square, round or diamond … the possibilities are numerous. And why not fall for an accumulation of mirrors? Right on trend, you are sure to dress your bathroom elegantly.
7. Roll up your towels!
Put your rolled towels in a basket instead of just laying them on the radiator or towel rack. This brings a touch of originality and a spa atmosphere to the room! A perfect idea to pimp up your bathroom easily.
8. Accessories that wow!
Eyeliners, eye shadows, lipsticks, makeup brushes, your makeup and accessories collection takes on gigantic proportions as in many bathrooms. With elegant glasses, bowls or boxes, bring some order to your bathroom. Other everyday objects can also become very stylish! Particularly trendy: metallic and copper pieces.
9. A bath mat that throws
With a bath mat, you will not only bring comfort to your bathroom, but also a lot of style. Trendy rugs are multiplying on the shelves of major brands such as H&M, Zara Home or Urban Outfitters, for example. Perfect for a room in a bohemian spirit: the patterned bath mat! Even at the foot of the washing machine, a simple carpet will be of the greatest effect.
10. Bet everything on one wall!
In a small bathroom, you might be limited enough to try new decorating things. In this case, we advise you to focus on a wall! You could, for example, paint it more showy and colorful or make it refined with cement tiles or mosaic.
11. Messages to convey good humor
Sayings and quotes on the wall, on the laundry bag or even the shower curtain can contribute to a good mood, starting in the morning! You can choose them funny or inspiring, the opportunity to recharge with positive waves even in full preparation.

A good alternative: indoor plants. A small jungle atmosphere will reign in your bathroom and will bring a very sharp decorative touch. There are many varieties of plants that will thrive in this humid room.

A bath tray serves as a shelf for toiletries, books, and maybe even your little glass of wine when you relax in the water. But it becomes even more elegant with a candle or a small plant on it …

17. Shampoos, shower gels & co. in pretty containers
Are your shampoo bottles piling up and not looking pretty in your shower area? Practice discretion and put them in decorative containers – available at Zara Home, for example. But beware ! Glass in the shower is not a good idea … especially when washing your hair. There are some nice plastic containers too!
