If your bathroom looks anything like ours after nearly four months of staying at home, then you know the countertops (and probably the bathtub edges and toilet back) are covered in cleaning supplies, toilet paper overstock, and other miscellaneous goods that can’t seem to find a home elsewhere in your place.
But what if—and stay with us here—your bathroom could be a luxurious sanctuary, with smart storage and expensive-looking decor?
After scrolling through hundreds of posts on Instagram to find some decor inspiration, we’re convinced that the dream can be reality! Keep reading for all the details on how you can steal these expensive-looking ideas for yourself.

Open shelves aren’t just for the kitchen, as we can see in this post from @thistle.harvest.
“Open shelves make spaces feel larger, which is great for small bathrooms,” says Colin Haentjens, designer for The Knobs Co. “If the intent is to have a light and airy bathroom, pick shelves with a light color or a clear-stained natural wood—and be sure not to overwhelm your shelves with toiletries or decorations, [as] this will just make the space feel crowded.”

Who says you can’t cover an entire wall with a backsplash? Certainly not @my_home_my_haven.
“This small detail creates a huge impact for a bathroom, and makes your ceiling look 12 feet high for a European flair,” says designer Michelle Harrison-McAllister of Michelle Harrison Design. “Not to mention, the constant water splash is much easier to clean on tile like these. This will be by far the most dramatic and show-stopping feature for your home; your guests may never want to leave the bathroom.”
