Hollywood glam lights
As Gandy added, if we’re still saying goodbye, then we should also add the well-known vintage vanity lights. As she said, Hollywood glam light fixtures simply scream “dated”. But fortunately, vanity lights are the easiest and most high-impact fixes you could ask for, especially for a bathroom that needs a little refresh. She explained that light fixtures are extremely easy to replace. You only swap the fixtures and you immediately get a little update on your bathroom.
Accent walls
Also, if you were to ask Hayley English, from Hayley English Interiors, she’d tell you that the bathroom accent walls are also over. It’s very hard to get a proper finished, cohesive design with an accent wall. If you want to have a wall tile, paint color, or even wallpaper, place it on all four walls and you’ll make a statement.
Well this is great, who has the money to remodel their bathrooms every 5-10 years at $10k each, so not practical
Guess what the new trend is everybody? It’s called do it your way!!! Don’t listen to all the trends that make you feel like your bathroom is less than. I love doing things my way! That’s what makes me feel the best. You certainly do not have to go out and spend a bunch of money just to have a bathroom that is up to date, according to something you see online or read in a magazine.
Some of the things are definitely relevant and out dated. However, I definitely disagree with a few things and just take them as someone else’s opinion:
JET TUBS – I replaced a regular tub with a jet tub. It fit in the same space and the maintenance is no more trouble than that on the old tub. Plus, I enjoy it from the few times that I use it.
FRAMELESS MIRRORS – The usefulness of the large frameless mirror out does any current fashion trend. They’re great.
DOUBLE SINKS – not sure what you’re talking about here. The additional counter space that comes with a double sink is a very welcomed advantage.
Spend a ton of money upgrading your bathroom that was upgraded five years ago then find out that, in one year, it is too dated and must be upgraded again. Cars don’t depreciate that fast.
Plus, note these are things that “designers” are tired of, not realtors or home buyers, designers. The folk that make money off of telling others how their bathrooms should look. I agree with the person before that stated that she does it as she wants it. The designers all need to make money, what better way than to keep telling everyone else how “out of date” their houses and bathrooms are so that they can then tell them what glorious designs they can produce for them at outrageous sums of money?
Not only was this article a waste of my time to read, but it was also poorly written.
