13 creative ways to decorate bathroom walls

These bathroom wall decor ideas are perfect to add more interest to spaces big and small. No matter what your go-to interior design style may be, decorating bathroom walls goes so much further than simply hanging a print.

That is a good place to start for sure, but in many ways, the bathroom can be a great spot where you can explore different wall decor since they tend to be a little bare, bar a towel rail and vanity unit, of course.  

You can really let your imagination loose in this room above all others because you don't have to worry too much about your wall decor clashing with a sofa/a specific room decorating style.

Remember that wall decor doesn't always equal prints and the key to showstopping results is to use your imagination, combining that with the functional elements of your bathroom – fixtures and storage. Of course, there is much in the way of wall materials also, think bathroom tiles and even wallpaper, all of which can go a long way to create stunning feature walls.

Having said this, according to Helen Armon-Jones, Founder of The Art Buyer, 'Ultimately, wall art and plants add the most character, even to the simplest of white tiled schemes. Whichever way you go with art in the bathroom, just be sure to speak to an expert framer as they will find you the best solution to ensure your art is fully protected and hung with care in the bathroom.' 

Whatever you choose, don't play it safe –  'bathrooms offer the opportunity to be brave with decorating', so just for whatever makes you happy.
