Home Decorating:
OK, I know it seems a little strange to be decorating my loo (!), but this looks really nice in my children’s bathroom! As you all know, I’m very
keen about low cost makeovers,
and it occurred to me the other day that another very low cost way of changing
the look of your bathroom is to give your toilet a makeover! There are also so
many really ugly toilet seats around (think lace, glitter and swimming
dolphins), so I wanted to do something that was a bit more funky and modern.
This project could be especially nice if your toilet is in a room of its own, and the room is otherwise unable to be decorated much. In my case, the toilet in my children’s bathroom is in the smack-bang-centre of the room and therefore is the main focus of the room!
Of course these photos are more about the concept rather than the
finished product. There are SO many options with this project! Whatever you
wanted to put on there, really! You just need to be able to still sit on it and
clean it! I also tried adding more material onto the toilet seat for a different look too.
If you wanted to try something like this in YOUR bathroom, all you’ll
need is some fabric or paper, scissors and some contact.
Firstly, give the toilet a quick clean!! Then trace the area of the
toilet that you want to stick something onto. I traced straight onto the back
of the contact. Then I cut the shape out.
Cut out the shape of the material or paper that you’d like to use. Just
make sure that you’re going to have enough contact around the edge of your
shape to keep it stuck firmly on.
I then gave my material a quick iron.
It was then
a simple matter of sticking the material onto the contact,
and then sticking it
onto the lid of the loo.
It’s still very easy to clean, and you can just rip it
off and chuck it out when you’re sick of it!
It's just for fun! Enjoy your decorating!
