Kids Bathroom Idea: Clever Storage
Storage is essential in a kids bathroom, which is why the locker in this space by @huitlaguna is so genius. It can hold all manner of bathroom clutter — like tooth brushing supplies, bath toys and soaps — while adding to the overall style of the room.
And the locker is just the beginning! We’re also swooning over the patterned floor tile, adorable step stools and convenient towel hooks. Everything is perfectly catered for kids, yet it’s still a beautiful space that anyone would enjoy.

Kids Bathroom Idea: Bold Wallpaper
Patterns or colors that might seem a little too out there for the rest of your house work beautifully in a space for kids. The blue cowboy-themed wallpaper in this bathroom by @clairekellyinteriors has that kitschy-cool style your kid might love. Matching the shelf to the vanity limits the number of finishes in the room, letting the wallpaper be the star.
Kids Bathroom Idea: Rainbow Fun
The kids’ bathroom is the place to go big or go home. So if you have dreams of floor-to-ceiling rainbow wall tile, like in this bathroom by @ladybugvintagepdx, then go for it! The rest of the fixtures are limited to white and chrome; that keeps the room from crossing over to psychedelic. Your kids will love the bright colors, and you’ll love that all that tile makes the walls easy to wipe clean.
Kids Bathroom Idea: Pull-Out Step Stool
There are a lot of things to admire about this cute bathroom from @oakstorydesign. The built-in step stool is our favorite. It’s a simple custom element (it’s installed just like a drawer) that gives kids a cool way to reach the sink. The patterned tile and rustic wood wall are enough to punch up the style of a kids bathroom without being cheesy or childish.
Kids Bathroom Idea: Classic Black and White
Although a kids’ bathroom full of color will always be a winner, you also can’t go wrong with classic black and white. This sophisticated space by @newhomeoldsoul grows with your kids without remodeling. The alphabet artwork, changeable letter board and bright green sconces add just the right touches to make the space kid-friendly. Another smart choice is the closed cabinet vanities for hideaway bathroom storage.

Kids Bathroom Idea: Cheery Monochromatic
An easy way to make a big impact in any room is to choose one dominant color. That’s the idea behind this cheery green bathroom by @lizziepincoffsinteriors. The green vine wallpaper coordinates with the bright green vanity for a fresh, fun vibe. The understated black hardware and sophisticated light fixture helps ground the space and balance out all the color.

Kids Bathroom Idea: DIY Face Lift with Paint
You don’t need a big budget to give your kids bathroom a dramatic facelift. Katee of @onkateelane transformed this bathroom with just a few gallons of paint! She covered the ugly brown tile with black and gray floor paint to emulate modern rectangular tile. The walls went from boring to bold by painting on a few colorful geometric shapes. Who wouldn’t want to brush their teeth in this fun space?
Kids Bathroom Idea: Maximalist Jungle
This bathroom by @melissaherriott takes a jungle theme to the max! It proves that a moody paint color, gold accessories and showstopper shower curtain are all you need to take a kids bathroom to the next level.
To create a similar look, start with a shower curtain that truly turns heads. Then pull paint color inspiration from the shower curtain design. In this case, the dark teal walls tie in to the dark teal in the jungle leaves, making a colorful yet cohesive space.
Kids Bathroom Idea: Pop of Color
Sometimes all you need is one well-chosen pop of color to bring a kids bathroom to life. The Kelly green vanity in this space by @rebelhousedesign makes all the difference in the mostly white and gray bathroom. It’s a great way to dip your toe in color if you usually stick to safe neutrals.
Pick one element in the bathroom and take a risk with color! It could be painting the vanity, painting a single wall or even something as simple as hanging a few colorful towels.

Kids Bathroom Idea: Mix Modern and Vintage
Mixing styles within a room keeps the space from feeling too flat or one note. In this kids bathroom from @shopskout, modern elements like the hexagon floor tile and simple round mirror are mixed with vintage wall art and a vintage basket to hold toilet paper. The result is a beautiful and interesting bathroom full of character.
If you’re drawn to different styles, don’t be afraid to combine them. Just keep the color palette limited to make everything work together.
