Ready to get whimsical? Let’s go!
1. Terracotta Tiles for Earthy Warmth
Terracotta tiles are boho’s answer to cozy charm! Their warm, rusty hue pairs perfectly with embroidered shower curtains or woven wall hangings. Add a few clay pots with trailing ivy, and you’ve got a Mediterranean-meets-desert vibe.
2. Limewash Paint for Rustic Walls
Give your walls a weathered, organic look with limewash paint. This chalky finish adds depth and pairs beautifully with rattan mirrors or macrame shelves. Pro tip: Use warm white or soft pink tones for a subtle boho glow.
3. Hanging Pothos Jungle Vibes
Drape pothos vines from ceiling hooks or floating shelves for an instant jungle feel. These low-maintenance plants thrive in humidity and add life to even the tiniest bathrooms. Bonus: They’re pet-friendly!
4. Moroccan Beni Ourain Rugs
A fluffy Beni Ourain rug turns cold floors into a boho paradise. Layer it over jute for texture, or let it shine solo beside a freestanding tub. Plus, it’s way comfier than cold tiles underfoot!
5. Upcycled Thrifted Vanities
Turn a $20 flea market dresser into a boho vanity with rattan drawer inserts and vintage knobs. Style it with a round mirror and a tiny vase of dried lavender for that “French countryside” charm.
6. Macrame Shower Curtains
Swap boring plastic for a macrame shower curtain! The open weave lets light filter through while adding texture. Pair it with wood-toned hooks and a eucalyptus bundle for spa-day energy.
7. Wicker Pendant Lights
Hang a wicker pendant light above your vanity for tropical flair. It casts dreamy shadows and pairs perfectly with rattan stools or bamboo trays. Go for a oversized design to make a statement.
8. Air Plants in Geometric Terrariums
No soil? No problem! Pop air plants into hanging geometric terrariums for modern boho style. They thrive in steamy bathrooms and add a sculptural touch to empty corners.
9. Vintage Suitcase Storage
Stack vintage suitcases under your sink for quirky, travel-inspired storage. Use them to stash toiletries, towels, or even spare plants. Bonus: They double as a fun side table!
10. Mixed Tile Patterns
Pair hexagon floor tiles with fish-scale shower tiles for bold contrast. Stick to a neutral palette (think sage and cream) to keep it harmonious. Renters? Use peel-and-stick versions for drama without commitment!
11. Clawfoot Tub + Floor Pillows
Turn your clawfoot tub into a boho lounge with floor pillows and a wooden bath tray. Add a hanging plant nearby and a stack of vintage books for lazy Sunday soaks.
12. DIY Beaded Chandeliers
String thrifted beads onto wire to create a boho chandelier. Dangle it above your tub or vanity for a rainbow of light. Pro tip: Mix amber, turquoise, and brass beads for global vibes.
13. Turkish Towels on Open Shelves
Ditch boring towels for fringed Turkish ones in earthy tones. Roll them on open bamboo shelves with crystals or incense holders for a curated look.
14. Rattan Laundry Baskets
Hide laundry in style with rattan baskets featuring pom-pom details. Tuck them beside your vanity or under floating shelves—they’re functional and Instagram-worthy.
15. Antique Mirrors with Dried Florals
Frame your mirror with a dried floral wreath or pampas grass. Pair it with a thrifted gilt-edged mirror for a touch of vintage romance.
16. Hanging Chair Reading Nooks
Got space? Add a hanging rattan chair beside your tub for the ultimate reading nook. Throw in a knit blanket and a side table for your tea (or wine).
17. Natural Stone Soap Dishes
Upgrade plastic soap dispensers with rough-cut stone dishes. They’re eco-friendly and add earthy texture to your sink area.
18. Global Pottery Displays
Mix Mexican Talavera bowls with Moroccan tagines on open shelves. Fill them with cotton balls, matches, or tiny succulents for a worldly feel.
19. Fairy Lights Around Mirrors
Twinkle alert! Wrap battery-powered fairy lights around your mirror for a magical glow. They’re perfect for late-night baths or early-morning calm.
20. Boho-Chic Bath Caddies
Trade plastic caddies for a wooden one holding candles, crystals, and bath salts. Bonus points if it’s handmade or thrifted!
21. Layered Rugs in Contrasting Patterns
Layer a striped kilim over a jute rug for bold, walkable art. Choose colors that pop against neutral walls—mustard, rust, or teal work wonders!
22. Floating Wooden Shelves
Install reclaimed wood shelves above your toilet or tub for plants and decor. Style them with trailing ivy, candles, and mini woven baskets.
23. Hand-Painted Ceramic Sinks
Make your sink a focal point with a hand-painted Moroccan or Mexican design. Pair it with brass faucets and a vintage mirror for luxe boho vibes.
24. Macrame Wall Hangings
Hang a large macrame piece above your tub or vanity for boho drama. Opt for natural cotton or dip-dyed versions for a playful twist.
