Your bathroom is a sanctuary. A place to escape, unwind and relax and really let your troubles soak away. It should be somewhere calming and serene where you want to spend endless hours just soaking, buffing and making yourself beautiful.
Everyone needs to turn their dull and boring bathrooms in to indulgent and luxurious spas and experience the serenity of a spa day every day in your own home. It doesn’t have to cost the earth either! A few small changes can make a huge difference to your bathroom.
Consider your colour scheme initially. The warmer the colours, the more relaxing your room will be. A nice deep blue makes a huge impact. A yellow may wake you up in the morning but it’s not really that relaxing. Some relaxing candles here and there and an incense burner are all small touches that you can add. Spot lighting or lights with a dimmer switch are a good idea too.
Those are the cheapest and most simple ways to create that spa like feeling. If you can go a few steps further and really revamp your bathroom you can make an even bigger impact.
You should consider things like replacing your tired old radiator with a towel rail. Towel rails don’t have to be boring, you can get some really modern designs that look sleek and stylish. They also come in different colours, not just chrome as many people mistakenly believe.
Choose tiles that will compliment the colours that you have chosen in your bathroom too, don’t go for all white as this can be quite cold. If you want white, choose a border tile that will take the edge off it.
A heated floor in your bathroom can be the perfect final addition to your bathroom and doesn’t have to break the bank. As it becomes more popular the prices for this kind of thing have become far more competitive.
As you can see, it is easy to create your own spa at home for a relatively low cost. Some of the ideas that we have given you can be done in any bathroom very easily such as a new colour on the walls, candles, oil burners. If you are considering having a full bathroom refit you will have many more options to create your sanctuary. Sit back, relax and indulge!
