Adding a few farmhouse touches to a modern bathroom will make all the difference
Wooden accessories and wicker baskets
This is probably one of the easiest ways to add a farmhouse touch to your bathroom. Small wooden chairs and wicker baskets are very small accessories which, however, can make all the difference. If you have a bath, you can place a small wooden chair next to it where you can keep everything you need for a relaxing bath. On the other hand if you have open shelving, wicker baskets make for great storage spaces for small towels or toilet paper, for example.

Open shelving
Open shelves are definitely a characteristic of a farmhouse decor. Especially when it comes to kitchens. That, however, doesn’t mean, that you can’t use open shelving in the bathroom as well. Whether you choose to have open shelves under the sink or want to add a few shelves on the wall, it is still a great option for that extra space you may need. Fill the space under the sink with a few wicker baskets and your farmhouse decor is ready.

Experiment with shiplap
Back in the day shiplap was used mostly outside and it was a real experiment on the homeowner’s part to use it inside. Nevertheless, it is a great statement on your walls. What’s more, it is something you can use for your walls which is immediately going to give it a farmhouse feel. If you don’t want to use it on every wall, it is still great for an accent one and it can be paired with subway tiles or a colorful wallpaper, for example.

Subway tiles
It seems like subway tiles will never go out of style. And, although they are considered great for pretty much any decor style, they are perfect for the farmhouse look. Which is exactly why you should definitely use them in your bathroom. Make an accent with them by using them in the shower cabin or behind your vanity. That way you will also create a bit of separation in the room.

Add some metal finishes
When you think about it, there aren’t that many metal things in a bathroom. But you need something metallic in order to give your bathroom a complete farmhouse look. Which is why, you need to pay special attention to your faucets, shower head and lighting fixtures. Pick a metal which is going to fit with the rest of the interior and add it to your decor. Lightning fixtures mounted on the wall next to the vanity mirror are very important. Just make sure they are chosen in accordance with the knobs on your vanity. The shower heads and faucets on the other hand need to be picked to fit with the rest of the shower area.
