Want to customize your bathroom without remodeling? Here are a ton of ideas for woodworking projects for the bathroom that you can make yourself!

Bathrooms are one space in the home that really gets dated quickly.

However, a full bathroom makeover is expensive and overwhelming.

It's actually pretty easy to give your bathroom a new, modern look by switching out the decor.

Think beyond decorative objects and art to wooden accent furniture that will make your bathroom more beautiful and functional.

Ideas for bathroom woodworking projects include:

  • Stools
  • Shelves on the wall
  • Storage cabinets + storage solutions
  • Over toilet storage
  • Towel racks
  • Toilet paper storage
  • Wooden bathtub stools and benches
  • Wall signs or wall art
  • Vanities and countertops
  • DIY bathroom decorations

You can also add a wood accent wall or wood plank ceiling if you want to incorporate wood into your space but don't have any space!

Here are some of my favorite wood bathroom ideas!
