A lot of homes are build with a small bathroom, it always seem that the bathroom is coming in last when architect design a home, if you live in a house with a small bathroom there are several ways to make your bathroom look bigger

Here are some tips.

One. The WallPaper.
You have special wallpaper for bathrooms so that it doesn’t fall of the wall after your first shower, make sure that the patterns are small, especially when you have a small room, adding a border can give the illusion that the bathroom is bigger.

Two. Painting.
When you have a small bathroom it is better to use light shades and colors, you can combine two colors to create the optical illusion of the size of your bathroom but make sure that the paint you use is waterproof.

Three. Lights.
The lighting in you bathroom is very important if you want it to make it look and feel bigger, space out your fixtures so that you will get a optimum lighting effect, if you have access to natural lighting like a huge window or skylight then your in luck because that is a great way to make your bathroom look bigger.

Four. Bathroom mirrors.
When you use a old designers trick place mirrors opposite from each other it will give you the illusion that the bathroom is much bigger then it really is especially when you combine it with good a lighting strategy, when you have a bathroom window and you place the wall mirror at the opposite wall it will look like your bathroom has two windows instead of one, you can play with the bathroom mirrors and lighting to see what great effects you can achieve.

Five.The bathroom Wall Mirror.
Making the use of bathroom wall mirrors can be a excellent way to create the optical illusion of a lager bathroom, but you have to be careful with the lighting, when you use to much light you can get headaches and we dont want that do we?
If you use a lot of mirrors in your bathroom the changes are big that it will be getting overpowering, if you have a big bathroom wall mirror then it is best that you use softer lights like opaque bulbs or to place a dimmer between the lights and the power course, you will be thanking yourself when you wake up and go to the bathroom and have the comfort of soft lights.

Six. Bath Mats And Racks.
Dont overdo it with the bad mats and towel racks, if you have a small bathroom it can easily get overcrowded with stuff you dont really need, keep it simple, only use objects you really need to save space.

A small bathroom will never get really bigger but as you can see there are ways to make your brain think that it is and it is called optical illusion, use it.
