You know that on-going joke about how you never want to get in the shower, but once you’re in there, you never want to leave? Making your bathroom feel like a spa may be just the ticket to making it easier to actually get in the shower… but be warned, it may also make you so much more reluctant to leave it.
We all deserve relaxation and to feel both pampered and rejuvenated. Spa trips can be wonderful for this, but if you don’t want to spend the money or you simply don’t want to have to leave the house, you can enjoy that tranquil atmosphere within your very own home. Here’s what you need to know about some of the things you can do in order to make your bathroom feel like a spa. Let’s get into it.
How To Make Your Bathroom Feel Like A Spa
#1. Minimize The Clutter
Have you ever heard of a messy spa? Probably never, right? This is an easy (and free!) way to make your bathroom feel like a spa. Many of us are all too guilty of leaving our bathroom looking like a warzone after getting ready for the day. Or perhaps it just seems easier to leave all of your dental hygiene products and soap and everything else in easy reach.
But cluttered spaces do not typically lend themselves to peaceful environments (depending on the type of person you are!). Taking the time to organize and clean up the clutter will both make your bathroom look and feel bigger, brighter, and cleaner than it did before – ideal for crafting that spa-like environment.
#2. Incorporate Calming Elements
Once you’ve cleared all the clutter away, the next step in your journey to make your bathroom feel like a spa is to incorporate some calming elements. You don’t need to go all out with the ambient music and essential oil diffusers if you don’t want to. Like anything else in your home, how much you do to your bathroom is up to you (well… and what permits permit and the like).
Some calming elements you can add to your bathroom to capture that spa-like atmosphere include:
- Plants. They don’t have to be real! Fake plants due the job just as well, if you’re lacking in the green thumb department.
- Think about colors. No need to paint walls if you don’t want to, but think about using earthy, calming colors. White on white is always a good choice to make a space seem brighter and cleaner. This can be done with your soap dishes, shower rugs, and other such amenities.
- Upgrade your towels. One of the best parts about spas is their plush, luxurious towels. Upgrading your towels is a great way to enhance your space.
- Add more mirrors. They don’t have to be big, they can even just be small little circles. But the more mirrors in a space, the more light is reflected around.
- Add touches of luxury. Think your favorite scented candle, think strip lighting, think toiletries that you love to use.
- Add rugs to soften the space. Not only does this save your feet from cold floors in Utah’s freezing winters, but it just makes the spa-like atmosphere of your bathroom that much better.
#3. Upgrade Features
If you’re willing to spend money to make your bathroom feel like a spa, upgrading some of the features is a stellar way to do this. For example, if you have a shower curtain, you can replace it with a glass shower door. Not only does this open up and brighten up your space, but it also makes it so much sleeker and cleaner-feeling, like a spa.
If your household is one where you’re worried about children or other family members or roommates bursting in on you when you’re in the shower, you can opt for a frosted or tinted glass door, which still provides modernity and light, but with more privacy.
Some other features you can choose to upgrade include:
- Switching out your vanity for one with curved edges. Bonus points if it’s a floating vanity.
- Opting for tactile surfaces.
- Installing a new showerhead, like a rain showerhead.
- And so much more.
