If your main priority when it comes to decorating is ensuring each room in your house reflects your personality, there is no reason to stop with the bathroom. While you can invest in interesting fixtures like roll-top baths or Cifial taps, you can also get creative decorating. Although some people are content to keep their washrooms neutral and kit them out with simple fittings, others may prefer to let their imaginations run wild. Consider what your favourite design schemes are and let these lead you as you decorate your wash room and you're sure to end up with a space that is a real talking point among your friends. Read on for a few ideas. Antique The vintage look has never been more popular and no matter what era you are most inspired by, you'll find a way to recreate it in your washroom. If you love the Victorian period, make sure you invest in traditional monochrome tiles for the floor, a roll-top bath with legs that look like clawed feet and plenty of candles. In Edwardian-inspired bathrooms that wouldn't look out of place in Downton Abbey, you can invest in a standalone tub for the centre of your bathroom and perhaps even a chandelier for added decadence. The 1920s is another popular era as this is when Art Deco was sweeping the world. One of the best ways to recreate this look is to tile your bath, right round to a mosaic around the exterior of the tub. To complete a vintage bathroom, place a potted green plant such as a palm or fern in the corner and add a few genuine antiques from the period you are inspired by, such as a vase or framed mirror. International As well as looking to different periods in history for inspiration, you can also consider different countries as the basis for your new bathroom design. One idea is a French-looking bathroom, which should be a decadent space with a neutral palette of creams and beiges. Add a pop of colour with a turquoise or pale blue and arrange plenty of pretty glass jars and perfume bottles to catch the light and add sparkle. A bathroom inspired by the US is bound to be a decadent affair, and this is a great choice if you have space. Popular features include his and her sinks so you can brush your teeth alongside each other without fighting for space in front of the mirror. Finally, Morocco is an enduring influence on bathroom design thanks to the popularity of tiles in north African designs. Rather than large tiles, invest in lots of small ones and put them together to form an ornate mosaic on the wall behind your bath. Traditional colour choices should be reds and brown earthy tones, with a few royal blue or gold tiles placed between them. Traditional Of course, you could go for something a little more traditional, and the seaside is an ever popular source of inspiration in the bathroom. You can white wash your wooden fixtures like the walls and floors and purchase matching shutters for the windows. Stick to a blue and white colour scheme and purchase quirky seaside ornaments such as shells, vintage life belts and model boats to arrange on your shelves or windowsills. You can complete the look by framing some of your favourite photos taken when you have visited beaches to add a little personality to the space.
