Does your small bathroom feel unpleasantly cramped or oppressively dark? Do you feel like there’s nothing you can do to expand the space without spending thousands of dollars knocking down walls in your house? Well, the truth is that you can make your small bathroom feel bigger without spending lots of money. By employing some simple and effective small bathroom remodeling ideas, you can create the illusion of space rather than the more expensive reality of it. Believe it or not, this can be done quite easily.

Experts have a tool box full of different small bathroom remodeling ideas, but most can be grouped into two categories: creating light and creating visual space. The illusions of space and light complement each other and expand a small space. Anyone who has tried to apply makeup in a small dark room knows how important light is, and it’s created in a variety of ways, both natural and artificial. Natural light comes from windows, skylights, and any other opening that allows sun into the space. Whenever possible, windows should be left uncovered or only lightly covered by a filmy white or light-colored window covering. Paint colors from the cool end of the color spectrum reflect and enhance natural light, as do mirrors and light-colored flooring. Even a light-colored, inexpensive rug used to cover a dark floor can brighten up a space. Artificial light, originating from ceiling lights, wall sconces or lamps, can also brighten a space when employed artfully. Recessed lighting, which creates the illusion of space as well as light, could also be a viable option for you. Just be sure to use artificial light that is bright without being oppressive. Look in your home and garden store for special bulbs that can be used to effectively diffuse the light.

The next category of small bathroom remodeling ideas is focused on creating visual space. The first step is eliminating the clutter and ephemera that tend to collect in a bathroom. Get rid of excess knick-knacks, art and furniture. Anything that isn’t absolutely essential is just stealing space. Try to clear wall space by eliminating shelves or other objects that obstruct the flow of energy. You can even add depth to the walls with a mural or piece of framed art depicting open, airy landscapes. If you can go without storage under your sink, you could install an inexpensive yet stylish wall-mounted or pedestal sink. Small sinks without boxy storage underneath have become increasingly popular and are relatively simple to install. Allow visual access to the entire space with a clear glass shower door or light-colored shower curtain that can be pushed open when not in use. Finally, you can make the ceiling feel higher and more expansive with carefully chosen lattice work or molding in the same color as the ceiling. In the end, space and light are your goal, and these simple small bathroom remodeling ideas can make your once despised bathroom into an oasis of rest and relaxation.
