Natural light is the simplest ‘lift’ you can give any room. If your bathroom has big windows, open them up. Or opt for soft candlelight, a floating candle in a glass bowl or scented ones with warming essences such as cinnamon.
Introduce heat lamps

Switching on a heat lamp gives you the benefit of both light and warmth. Infra-red heating technology offers long-lasting lamps that provide instantaneous heating and are splash proof. Consult with an electrician before installing a heat lamp in your bathroom to ensure a safe installation.

Place a few thick rugs in front of the sink, toilet, and shower. Not only will they keep your feet warm, but they will also lend a soft, inviting feel to the bathroom because there is nothing worse than touching cold tiles with warm feet.
