Who says a bathroom can't be elegant? After all, you more than likely spend quite a bit of time in that room, so it might as well be time spent in a setting you love. From selecting the shower treatment to selecting accessories, here are some ideas that might help you when you are designing an elegant master bathroom.

The Shower Treatment - Since you want to establish an elegant feeling in your master bathroom, consider selecting a frameless glass shower door. This type of door is very affordable and is so easy to install that you can probably do the job yourself. Of course, if you are not comfortable with do-it-yourself projects, the company or the store that sold you your glass shower door will have trained workers who will do the job for you.

Even though the design of your frameless shower door might be simple, that doesn't mean that the hardware has to be simple, too. For the formal look you are choosing, consider selecting brass or pewter water handles. Frameless showers are easy to care for. At the end of each shower, simply squeegee the glass doors or wipe them off with a lint-free cloth. 

The Accessories - It's more than likely the accessories you select that will add to the formal look you want. The accessories might also give clues to the things you love. For example, if you are passionate about spending time at the beach, select things like soap dishes of a shell design. Put things like watercolor water scenes or photographs of little children at the beach on your bathroom walls. Frame them in heavy gold frames to keep with the elegant look you want.

Consider even your light fixtures. For example, think of the type of chandelier you would find in a formal living room or dining room and use that same look for your master bathroom. Will you have a vanity table? If so, consider selecting a beautiful chair to place in front of it, perhaps even a small living room chair with upholstery that complements the towels you select. And, speaking of towels, consider monogramming the bath towels in gold thread. 

As you shop for the accessories for your elegant master bathroom, think of shopping at antique stores and at boutiques where you will find one-of-a-kind items that will add a bit of drama to your newly decorated bathroom. For more information, contact a company like Superior Frameless Showers.
