1. Warm up the room’s metallics.

 

As it gets colder outside, we value warm, cozy nooks more and more. While distinct from the physical warmth that comes from your heater vents, visually warm tones can help the bathroom have this desired ambiance. Moreover, since mixing metals has received the thumbs up in the design world, you don’t have to swap out ALL of your chrome hardware just because you decide to include some satin brass. Possibilities for making a change like this include:

• Adding wall sconces on either side of the vanity mirror.
• Replacing your shower door pull with one in a warmer finish that is still compatible with your glass thickness and the holes already drilled in the glass.
• Buying some inexpensive items in the new finish – soap dispenser, trash can, picture frame, etc.

 

2. Add a few fall-themed accent items.

 

Of course the most obvious – and sometimes the most fun – way to give your bathroom fall vibes is by adding a few tasteful décor pieces. Classic options include:

• A pitcher full of branches of colorful leaves on the vanity counter.
• An autumn themed hand towel.
• A framed painting, print, or photo of a fall landscape or still life with pumpkins.
• Fall scents in your diffuser or other air freshening system.

 

3. Create a more luxuriant experience.

 

If you have a larger budget for your bathroom makeover, consider an upgrade that will enhance the comfort of those using the space as the outdoor climate gets harsher.

• Sick of brushing up against a cold, clammy curtain liner? Replace the curtain and liner set with a frameless sliding glass shower door, an in-line door and panel, French doors, or bypass doors.
• Put in a heated towel rack.
• If space allows, add a plug-in fireplace for a hint of spa-level coziness and relaxation.
• Install a dimmer switch so that you can adjust the lighting to the mood.

 

4. Use subtle touches to give the space an autumn feel.

 

While some homeowners love accent items that are overtly seasonal or holiday-themed, others prefer a more understated approach. Along these lines, you can give your bathroom a fall update by simply introducing some fall colors, while eschewing pumpkins, oak leaves, and scarecrow motifs! For instance, you could:

• Replace your existing bath mat with a new plush rug in burnt orange.
• Hang an ochre towel on your glass mounted towel bar for a pop of color.
• Combine the fall update with a test of the “Unexpected Red Theory” by hanging a picture that features deep red hues.
• Swap out some cool grays with warm browns.
