2014 Stylish Bathroom Lighting Ideas

Bathroom lighting can illuminate the darkest spaces or add a subtle, calming sparkle. You'll love these ideas to try in 2014! I hope you find these ideas useful and inspiring to you .... Enjoy it !!!!


Crystal Chandelier : Crystal Sconces
In this luxurious bathroom, a crystal chandelier takes center stage, adding glamour and sparkle to the traditional decor.


Antique Sconces : Antique sconces hang above the oversize mirror and add unexpected flair to the light and bright bathroom. The dark finish on the light fixtures adds weight to the room and helps unify the dark legs of the chair and the cabinet hardware. Their position above the vanity also provides task lighting for makeup application and grooming.


Work of Art : The organic shape of this blown glass light fixture works well in the contemporary style bathroom. Modern spaces can feel cold and be full of hard edges, but the round globes on the light fixture and the hand-shape towel hooks in this bathroom add a touch of playfulness.


Candlestick Sconces : Candlestick wall sconces, ornate details, and custom-glazed cabinets are a nod to country French style. Keep in mind that decorative fixtures add flair, but you'll want to ensure that you have another source of light, such as an overhead fixture or recessed lighting, to provide ample illumination for applying makeup and grooming.


Light Tubes : Streamlined tube lights enhance this sleek bath vanity while providing soft light. Try multiple light switches in the bathroom so you can customize the amount of light. Flip one switch to turn on only the overhead lights, and flip the other switch when you need more precise lighting at the vanity.


Lamp Sconces : Classic lamp sconces add to the romantic feel of this 1920s style bathroom. The white shades diffuse the glow of the lightbulbs and help to soften the light.


Old-World Lanterns : The ornate styling of these iron lanterns hanging over the vanity is a work of art. Add the curved architecture of the ceiling and detailed craftsmanship on the vanity and there's no doubt: This small bathroom is fit for royalty.


Indoor-Outdoor Lighting Fixtures : Wall mount lighting fixtures seem to float in this ethereal bathroom. The rounded lights echo curved shapes found elsewhere in the bath and nod to the styling of vintage exterior porch lights.


Layered Lighting : Lighting in a bathroom is paramount, so layering the types of light produces the best results. In this bath, the combination of overhead light from the chandelier, natural light from the windows, and light from the fixtures above the mirrors covers all of the lighting needs.


Crystal Bathroom Lighting : In this elegant bathroom, delicate light fixtures were chosen to interject a counterpoint to weighty cabinetry. A finely detailed crystal chandelier crowns the space, while a trio of sparkly sconces mounted directly on mirrors creates a dazzling show of reflections.


Colored Shades : Add color with the lampshades in your bathroom for an easy and inexpensive way to update the space. Dark-color shades will block a lot of light, so stick to light colors to maximize illumination.


Backlit Beauty : A large mirror framed in onyx is lit from behind, casting a warm glow on the opulent master bathroom.

2014 Clever Storage Tips for Small Bathrooms

Even a small bathroom can make a large impact . Now with this tips for small bathrooms,I hope you find these ideas useful and inspiring to you ...... Enjoy it !!


Curtain Call : A sink skirt is a smart way to hide clutter while also keeping everything easily at hand.


Be Bold : Who said a small bathroom can’t be bold? In this 60 square foot bathroom, bright colors and fun accents were carefully combined to create a small bath that’s big on style.


Color : This once boring en suite bathroom was given a stylish makeover to make the most of the space. It may be small, but a fresh color palette and a few trendy accessories made all the difference.


Heavenly Design : Light, ethereal curtains give a soft, airy vibe to this petite bath. A splash of color and a gorgeous chandelier bring attention to the high ceilings, making the entire room feel more spacious.



Shelf Help : A bathroom, particularly the main bathroom, can’t be functional without proper storage. Line the walls in custom shelving for a design that doesn’t waste valuable space.



In the Clear : By keeping the walls around your shower totally clear, you can visually expand your space and avoid blocking off the bathroom, which can cause the room to feel even smaller.


Hidden Potential : Don’t dismiss awkward space in your tiny bath. In the small apartment bathroom featured here, the alcove behind the toilet is the perfect place to add a couple of shelves for extra storage.


Moveable Storage : If built in shelving is simply not an option, or if you love to mix up your bathroom design, try a storage ladder or shelf that can be easily painted or moved, depending on your preferences.


Do It Yourself : Often cheaper than store-bought shelving units, crates are a trendy alternative that offer much-needed storage, while boasting fun, DIY charm.


Character Building : Mix patterns in a similar color palette, such as the vase and tile featured here, to instantly give your small bath more character.


Cabinet Fever : Add interest and storage in your petite powder room with an extra cabinet that hides toiletries without taking over the space. The bright blue cabinet here is just the right size for the small room’s layout.


Beneficial Built-Ins : Use every square inch by filling niches with built-in storage. If you are remodeling, consider this tactic to maximize space.


Add Interest : By keeping a light and cohesive color scheme, the various textures in this bathroom add subtle interest for major impact.


Moving Up : If you think your tiny bathroom can’t be helped, make sure you haven’t forgotten the walls. Take advantage of vertical space to create extra storage and display personal decor.


More Floor : Basin legs add extra floor space while also visually expanding a small bathroom. Plus, there is plenty of room for storing a trash bin or other necessities underneath.


Counter Offer : If you have the option, consider extending your countertop over the toilet, which will give you extra space in an area that is ordinarily unusable.


Basket Case : If you don’t have room to add shelving, decorative baskets can be a great way to hide extra toiletries. Keep them stacked by the sink for easy access.


Go Graphic : Think you can’t do graphic wallpaper in a small space? Think again! A small bathroom is the perfect place to try out a daring wall treatment.
