Many people love cats and enjoy decorating with cat-themed items, but cat-themed bathroom items are not always easy to find. Visit the bathroom decor section of any discount store and you will find items ranging from lighthouses to frogs, but bathroom items in a cat theme are a bit more difficult to find. You really do not have to buy ready-made cat decor when decorating a bathroom. Here you will discover a number of fun and creative ways to decorate a bathroom in a cat theme, and you will not have to spend a small fortune in the process.

Creative Shower Curtain Ideas

Shower curtains embellished with cat graphics are not easy to find, but designer shower curtains are not necessary when decorating a bathroom in a cat theme. Buy a plain cotton fabric shower curtain, and use a rubber stamp and ordinary latex craft paint to create realistic paw prints. Search the rubber stamp aisle of a local craft store and you will find dozens of rubber stamps that can be used to made a personalized shower curtain. Further embellish stamped kitties of various colors by gluing on small jewels for eyes. Stamp dozens of cats of various colors and patterns, and give each one a pair of sparkling eyes and a jewel encrusted collar. The options are only limited by your imagination when decorating with rubber stamps.

Wooden Wall Decor

When decorating a bathroom and searching for wall decor in a cat theme, delve into your creative side and consider painting wooden cutouts to hang on walls. Craft stores offer cutouts of all shapes and sizes, and simple wooden cat cutouts are very inexpensive. You do not have to be an artist to create impressive decor. Simply paint the background a solid color using latex craft paint, and after the paint dries add facial features. Create a calico cat by painting the background white and sponge painting random patches of black, orange, and brown. Even those without artistic ability can create impressive wall decor using ready-made wooden cutouts.

Easy Handmade Mirror Decals

Peel and stick decals are rather expensive, and although cat decals are available, the options are very few. Continue the paw print theme by creating prints for the mirror using peel and stick shelf paper. Select adhesive shelf paper in a color of your choice, and stamp paw print designs onto the paper. Cut out the paw print shapes using craft scissors, and stick them to the bathroom mirror. This cute theme can be continued on the door or even along the wall if desired.

Create an Easy Kitty Collage

Those on a low decorating budget can make a creative and highly decorative kitty collage using ordinary magazine cutouts, cardstock, and a simple mat frame. Locate pictures of cats and kittens in magazines, and carefully cut out the photos. Apply several pictures to a sheet of cardstock. Overlap the pictures to fill in the entire sheet, and make sure the edges are in place. Allow the collage to dry completely before attaching a simple mat frame.

These are just a few fun and creative ways to decorate a bathroom in a cat theme. Look for simple ways to incorporate fun and decorative cat graphics into your bathroom scheme. When decorating with rubber stamps, wooden cutouts, latex paint, and peel and stick shelf paper, the options are truly endless.
