3 Easy Ways to Decorate Your Bathroom for the Holidays
Decking your halls for the holidays?
Don’t forget about your bathroom!
With family and friends stopping by for a visit, making simple décor updates to your half-bath or guest bathroom is a fun and easy way to spread the seasonal cheer!
Here are a few of our favorite ways:
SWAP OUT YOUR LINENS
A quick change of towels and rugs can make your space feel completely different. And when it comes to decorating for the holidays, it's a great way to showcase your own personality and style!
Add a festive hand towel or two, pop in some holiday color with bath towels, and warm up the space with a fun, textured bath rug.
If you're feeling extra-cheerful, change out the shower curtain and soap dispensers!
GOING FOR GREEN
Putting up some simple garland around a mirror brings an instant feeling of the holidays. Smaller-scale swags are great for saving space while longer garlands with textures and lights give a grander allure to a bathroom of any size.
A lower maintenance option is to add a tiny tree on the vanity for an easier holiday transition. Or for a unique look, add smaller wreaths to the doors of your cabinet base.
SCENTS OF THE SEASON
Warm up your bathroom with an inviting scent! Holiday-inspired designs for scents are a great way to also bring a little visual interest to the space.
Seasonal scents add an instant feeling of home. Notes of cinnamon, clove, apple or spruce are popular for winter – you could use reed or oil diffusers, candles, or room sprays.
FAQS
What are some simple ways to update my bathroom decor for the holidays?
Holiday bathroom décor allows you to exercise your creativity and spread additional cheer among your guests. Some bathroom holiday decorating ideas include seasonally themed hand towels, bath towels, rugs, shower curtains, or soap dispensers.
How can I incorporate greenery into my bathroom holiday decor?
Consider draping a garland around the mirror or any frames hanging on the walls of the bathroom or placing holiday pine swags with seasonal tree ornaments, berries, or ribbon. A miniature tree with decorations might fit nicely on the vanity or a shelf.
What types of holiday scents are best for bathrooms?
Embrace the holidays in your bathroom by introducing seasonal scents. For example, holiday reed diffusers are an easy way to add the aroma of winter spruce or pine needles. Scented candles are another option for producing cinnamon, balsam fir, or gingerbread fragrances.
Are there any tips for decorating a small bathroom for the holidays?
Decorating half bathrooms or guest bathrooms for the holiday season is possible using smaller décor. A small wreath with pine cones, a red bow, or holiday bells is a nice option. A traditional red Poinsettia is always a holiday favorite, or a white Poinsettia, accented with a red ribbon or bow, is also a classic holiday decor selection.
How can I make my bathroom feel more festive on a budget?
Simple DIY decorations can help you create a festive bathroom on a budget. Consider using red, green, or white remnants of extra fabric and cutting them into one- or two-inch-wide strips to create bows or ribbons, which can complement a pine wreath. You can also use glass jars or pedestal dishes and fill them with berry branches, holiday bulbs, or red flowers.
