Bathroom Art for Design

But what kind of bathroom art best suits this space? Actually – anything but a priceless painting (oil or watercolor) that may be damaged by exposure to damp and humid conditions. When choosing bathroom art, the homeowner has a number of choices. From framed posters, paintings (landscape, still life or portrait) to abstract photographs or murals, anything goes. If you are not too sure of your style, I recommend checking out a number of design books and magazines from your local library, or purchasing several from your nearest bookstore. Flip through books that are focused on different styles of design from French country, to modern to traditional to minimalism. Then, once you find the style that appeals most to you focus in on particular rooms and their furnishings and finishings. As you consider your bathroom artwork choices, this will help you evoke the mood and look you want.

Once you have decided what type of bathroom art you would like, you have a number of choices depending on your price range. If you are a first time homebuyer with little money to spend, a poster of a famous print, in a nice frame, can make a big impact for a small price. Online stores have huge catalogs of prints, numbering in the thousands, which you can view on your computer, and order, without having to drive from store to store.

Another great source of bathroom art for those who are on a budget is Target. Yep Target. Recently they have added a number of designer series that feature more reasonable versions of the styles that are sold in Pottery Barn and Crate and Barrel. If you have a bit more money, Bed, Bath and Beyond and Linens N Things sell a whole range of pre-framed artwork, as does Joanne’s and Michael’s. If you are less concerned about the cost of your new bathroom art, then browse through stores such as Crate and Barrel, Pottery Barn and Zgallery. All of which sell a unique range of artwork in a variety of design styles that can double as bathroom art.

And, once you choose your new bathroom art, don’t forget to make sure that your towels and other accessories match your new look. This is what will give your bathroom a cohesive look that you will enjoy. So if you select a natural bathroom art look, go for relaxing and soothing towels, whereas if you selected a modern look, consider bolder options.
