How to update your bathroom on a budget

Don't let the credit crunch stop you updating your space. Transform your bathroom area into a chic haven with our cost-friendly design tips


Get smart storage

Mounting a mirrored storage cube either side of the panel creates a stylish symmetrical look. They're deep enough to store bathroom must-haves, clearing clutter from around the basin


Use wow factor wallpaper

A stunning monochrome wipeable wallpaper makes real impact - just mount it onto a thin MDF board the same width as the sink unit. A glass splashback provides extra protection at basin level without obscuring the wallpaper


Opt for floral stickers

These frost-effect stickers give glass or mirrored surfaces extra decoration, complementing the floral wallpaper perfectly


Try wall-mounted hand pumps

Dispensers filled with your favourite hand lotion give that extra luxurious hotel feel. Mount them just above the towels on either side of the basin.


Choose matching towels

Black and white patterned towels complement these plain white ones. Show them off on smart chrome-effect towel rings.
