3 Elements of a Stylish Kids Bathroom

Hello Friends! Right now I am gearing up to makeover my kids’ bathroom and have had a fun time searching for inspirational spaces.  I am looking to create a kids bathroom that is both stylish and fun.  Here are 9 Inspiring Kids’ Bathrooms that I found that fit that description!

In analyzing these photos I have pinpointed 3 elements that all of these spaces have in common and which I will make sure to employ in my kids bathroom makeover!

 

1.  First, is the use of a bold color.  If you scan through the pictures again you will observe that all of these bathrooms had 1 and sometimes 2 bold colors.  The pops of colors in these pictures included  deep blue, green, turquoise, aqua, yellow, and pink.  I am thinking about using green in my bathroom makeover with an accent of blue.

 

In the examples above the designers stuck to one or two main colors to decorate with.  Keeping a simple color palette keeps a kids bathroom stylish!

 

2.  Second, all the photos above had either tile or board and batten or some kind of white wall treatment giving the space a fresh, clean feel.  The two photos that did not have tile or woodwork were painted in an off-white color displaying a simple, clean look.  Having a mostly white background really allows the bold use of color to pop even more and assists in creating a stylish space.

 

I have already installed white board and batten in their bathroom I just need to touch it up with some caulk.  Adding board and batten has already done so much to update and freshen the space.

 

3. Third, the use of a primary pattern was demonstrated in each of the photos.  Whether it’s stripes, checkers, swirls,  or polka dots a fun pattern gives way to a fun, kid friendly space!  Again to keep it stylish it’s important to stick with one or in some cases two patterns in the room.

 

I haven’t decided quite yet which pattern I will use in the kids bathroom but I am leaning towards stripes because I just can’t seem to get enough of them!:-)  Juries still out on this one though.

 

Sometimes all it takes is one of these 3 criteria to be missing for a kids bathroom to feel off.  The bathroom below is beautifully done and very stylish but can you tell which item above is missing?

Right, a bright color. For it to feel more like a kids bathroom all that would need to be done is to switch out the white flower on the vanity counter to more of the bright yellow flowers or to add a brightly color yellow or green towel instead of the white one. A simple fix.

 

The photo below is missing what?

That’s right a fun pattern. An easy fix is to switch out the white hand towel with an orange and white or green and white or even blue and white patterned hand towel.

 

I hope you enjoyed this 3 step formula for creating a stylish kids bathroom!  I will definitely being using it as I work on making over the kids’ bathroom.

 

Here is what I am working with (the before):

 It’s pretty much a blank canvas.  So excited to make the vision I have for it come to life! 🙂
