How to create a Spa-like Bathroom

If  you are wondering how to create a spa-like bathroom in just a few  simple steps, you’ve come to the right place! The bathroom of your  dreams can easily be achieved by taking cues from the sophistication and  timeless appeal of luxury spas and saunas. Creating a home spa is the  perfect way to provide a tranquil retreat that promotes good health and  well-being while reducing stress.

Not every home has a large  master bath, but luxury can come in small packages too. A solid  foundation of beautiful materials sets the tone when combined with a  soothing color scheme. The finishing touches are what pulls it all  together so be sure to engage all of your senses by adding scented  soaps, bath bombs, sponges and pretty baskets. It’s about finding the  perfect balance between materials.

A bathroom spa makeover doesn’t  need to be a huge undertaking, shouldn’t require too much time and a  few simple updates can go a long way. When you think of a spa, the image  that comes to mind is decadent, fluffy oversized towels, soft  candlelight, subtle fragrance and absolute relaxation. Everything works  together to create a soothing and harmonious environment that delights  the senses while calming and rejuvenating mind and body.

From  design details that include natural elements such as wood, stone, and  water to the little things that make such a difference – a scattering of  rose petals, natural and organic decor and the sound of soft music  playing in the background. Trays and baskets are filled to the brim with  luxurious items meant to pamper.

 The first step in creating a spa-like bathroom is too remove clutter to  present a clean, organized and efficient space. Be sure to keep bathroom  essentials on hand, but tuck everything neatly away in designated  storage areas. 

Mix in Nature

 Lush greenery helps to create a healthy environment, while also add to  creating a tranquil setting. Bathrooms tend to have lower light, high  humidity, and warmer temperatures than other rooms in the house, and so  it’s important to find houseplants that will flourish in this  environment. 

Calming Colors

Calming Colors

 It’s important to set the tone for your home-spa by choosing soothing  colors. Neutral colors such as white, beige or soft greys and browns  work well in defining a space to relax. Subtle color can be brought in  with plants, artwork, and decorative accents.

From toiletries to towels, spas have a way of laying  everything out so it looks decadent. A large silver tray becomes an  elegant solution to display lotions, perfume, and other toiletries.  Lovely glass jars are the perfect way to store cotton balls, cue tips,  and sponges. Wicker baskets placed on counters or on the floor provide  an extra storage place for hand towels. Tiered trays on a vanity counter  add elegance and provide an area for holding hand soap and lotions. 

Softness

 Nothing says spa quite like a fresh stack of plush towels placed over a  towel bar, rolled in baskets or stacked neatly on a shelf. If you want  to take your home spa to the next level, consider adding a towel warmer  so you can enjoy the soothing warmth of heated towels at home.

 The shower, tub, toilet, and sink are the main event in the bathroom,  and carefully chosen, go a long way in creating a spa-like bathroom.

 The shower is the heart of the room and should be made as decadent as  possible. Provide an extravagant and spa-like experience by adding a  rainfall showerhead. A steam shower also adds instant luxury while  nourishing the skin and leaving it with a healthy glow.

 A simple cedar bath mat effortlessly creates a spa-like feel to your  bathroom. It’s an elegant and modern solution that instantly creates the  feeling of spending a day at the spa. Cedar is a perfect choice because  it’s an affordable water-resistant wood.

 The spa experience always begins with the aroma when you first walk in  that instantly soothes and relaxes you. To complete the spa ambiance in  your own bathroom, consider using scents to replicate the aromatherapy  found in these top spas. It’s the perfect element to transition you from  everyday life and embrace tranquility and a relaxing of the senses.  Whether it’s fresh mint, eucalyptus or a hint of lavender, jasmine,  ylang-ylang, tea tree, neroli, rose petals or vanilla, a little goes a  long way. 

Pamper

 Treat yourself to your favorite spa indulgences such as body scrubs,  bath salts, and sheet masks and display them on open shelves or in  beautiful glass jars on the counter. Many brands are creating gorgeous  packaging for their products that look elegant running along the edge of  the bath.

 A well-curated gallery wall or large piece of artwork can instantly  transform a bathroom to new heights, as well as tie the whole room  together. 

Flowers

 Select stylish accessories that complement the overall design of the  bathroom. If you are low on space, even a small floral arrangement can  make all the difference.

Lighting

 To create a truly luxurious bathroom, the effective use of chandeliers,  decorative wall sconces, and recessed lighting can go a long way in  creating drama and sophistication. The trick to properly lighting a  bathroom while creating a luxurious feel is to use multiple layers. Think about installing dimmer  switches as they are a lovely addition to any bathroom as they can  provide the same effect as soft candlelight.

 If you have the room, additional seating such as a small stool or small  comfy chair adds an upscale look. It’s also useful for applying lotion  or relaxing after your bath.
