Complete your bathroom aesthetic with a funky mat

he two key elements to feeling like you’ve got your life together as an adult are simple: a fully stocked fridge, and a well-kept bathroom. Bonus points are available for those with an untouched jar of pickles and a dedicated water closet for guests.

With the skyrocketing popularity of DIY interiors showing no signs of slowing down, crafty individuals with a local B&Q and knack for keeping up to date with the latest interior design trends have been busy creating spectacular pieces of home décor that even a professional carpenter would give a nod of approval.

Nevertheless, creating drippy shelves, cutting up peel-and-stick vinyl tiling, and curating your very own gallery wall are just the first steps to completing a full TLC-style home makeover. Arguably the most essential element is the décor. We’re talking about perfectly placed trinket dishes, Scandi-style glassware, table runners, rugs and more. After all, you wouldn’t leave the home without accessorising an outfit – so why leave the home itself threadbare and void of sparkly, joyous love?

By far the most common place to start for first-timers when it comes to interior design and DIY is the bathroom. We’re not sure whether it’s because a failure to create a spectacular WC the first time around can be simply laughed off as an epic disaster, or the very opposite fact that a dazzlingly innovative bathroom can truly leave guests in awe.

Either way, the most important final touch for any chic bathroom is a fluffy, cloud-like bath mat to greet your feet before, during, and after your daily ablutions. Once again, we’re scoring extra for those who complete their bathroom with a hilarious, eclectic, yet wonderfully stylish novelty bath mat.

We are big fans of creating a dreamy haven within which we can comfortably do our business, especially when renting. You may not be able to replace the flooring but you can disguise ostensibly identifiable elements of the bathroom with brightly coloured accessories. It’s an essential, final puzzle piece in creating a home fit for the coveted pages of Architectural Digest.

Without further ado, keep scrolling for a selection of the best novelty bath mats on the market.
