Renovate your bathroom

If you're looking for a new project to sink your teeth into, why not try renovating the bathroom?

It can all start with a simple coat of paint. One way to freshen up this space is by coating it with a specialty paint designed with bathrooms and kitchens in mind. Look for formulas that contain anti-bacterial silver protection, as this is internationally recognised as a safe way of sanitising and deodorising surfaces.

White is a traditional shade used in bathrooms, but other colours are starting to creep into the modern aesthetic. If you're doing bathroom DIY, why not inject a bit of colour into the space with a feature wall?

If you don't have the time or inclination to completely overhaul the room, changing its appearance can be as simple as swapping out the linen. Changing out white towels for blue is as easy, effective and cost-efficient way of updating this small space.

Tap ware and light fittings can date a room if they are old-fashioned, so head off to your local hardware store to select some modern designs.
