How to create a boutique-hotel-style bathroom in your home

Inject energy into a soft, feminine room by embracing unexpected colour combos like vibrant red and powder-puff pink. Pick the strongest shade for your accent colour and carry it into your accessories. Don't be afraid to mix up the patterns! Place an occasional table beside a free-standing soaker tub for the perfect spot to rest a cup of tea.
