Do you have a small bathroom off a hallway or even tucked under the stairs?  It may sometimes seem impossible to make it cozy and inviting.  Rest assured, there are many different ways to transform that small clustered bathroom into a thing of beauty.  A houzz decorating article details a few creative ways to optimize the space in a small bathroom. 

1. Invite the eye with creative paint treatments.  Bold colors are great to change the look of your bathroom, with horizontal stripes or a painted ceiling to draw the eye off the size of the room.  Paint is also a cheap and easy update to make in any room.
2. An open shower is an idea that has been utilized by Europeans for a very long time.  With some extra waterproofing measures you can eliminate the shower door and fit a shower into the smallest of bathrooms.  It will also give you a different unique look.
3. Installing great floor tile can shift the rooms focal pint onto the ground.  Drawing the eye to the floor takes away from the cramped space and changes the focus.
4. Unused wall space can be taken up with built in cabinets or shelves.  This allows you to store toiletries, reading materials or anything else without taking up any floor space.
5. Mirrors!  Adding a mirror to a small space is the oldest trick in the book, because it works!  This creates an illusion of doubling the space.  When combined with good lighting mirrors can really make a small cramped room feel much larger. 

Bell Mirror & Glass can help create and install any type of mirror or custom glass for your bathroom, or any other room in your house.  Like us on Facebook for plenty of great ideas and tips for your home.

When it comes to decorating a small space, one of the most important features to focus on is the walls. When it comes to wall decor, there are endless possibilities in terms of design and decoration. Your walls are your own personal canvases just waiting to be filled up, so be sure to take full advantage of this!

Here are a few simple tips and rules for covering your walls in a small space:

Wall Decals: Removable wall decals are always a great choice for anyone looking to decorate. Wall decals come in all different shapes and sizes. Moreover, they can easily be removed, saved, and reapplied wherever you go.

Color Scheme: Choose art that encompasses and strengthens the color plan in your house or apartment. There are limitless ways decor could do this.

Budget Watch: Decorating can get pricey, especially when it comes to wall decor, but it does not have to cost a fortune to cover empty walls. Buying from thrift stores or consignment shops will make your wallet happy and you truly never know what you may end up finding.

Functioning Decor: Dual-purpose items are the friends of small spaces. This type of wall decor mixes style and functionality, making them win-win purchases.

Embrace Personal Tastes: Stay true to your style and your preferences to have a more personalized touch. Putting up photo collages of friends and family or hanging inspirational posters and wall decals can brighten your corner and turn your house into a home.

And Most Importantly - Mirror Tricks: Mirrors and other reflective items, when used correctly, can give the illusion of a larger space. Mirrors increase the visual space of a room and often tie the whole room together.
