The bathroom serves a few purposes. It is a place to wash, brush teeth, trim hair, and all of those other things. But, it also can serve a purpose as somewhere to escape for a few hours. Somewhere to relax and unwind. However, many of us can find that the half-filled bottles of bubble bath and dusty, neglected corners aren’t always the best thing for that much sought-after spa feel.

So how can you turn your average bathroom into more of a calm oasis?
Mildew, mold, peeling paint, dust, the hair on the walls or the plug, stains in the toilet bowl, and all of that typical bathroom mess. It needs to be tackled. You can’t relax appropriately in a slightly messy or dirty environment. You can choose to clean naturally with things like vinegar and baking soda, or you might get the bleach and disinfectant involved. Whatever you decide, try and pick a neutral smell that won’t interfere with the next steps in the plan.
Spend a few hours cleaning up. Get rid of empty bottles, half-crumbled bath bombs, and scrub down the showerhead and around the taps.

Bathroom Spa

Choose Your Scents
One of the reasons we feel so relaxed in a spa is the fragrances used. Using a mixture of candles, warm wax burners, and potpourri. Reed diffusers are great too and long-lasting. In general, you will likely smell these scents at the spa: The most common oils used in hotels include Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Lavender, Sandalwood, Bergamot, Chamomile, and more. This article will give you four typical essential oil recipes used to bring out the amazing smell in spas and how to make them using a reed diffuser.

Fixture and Fittings
It might be that your bath, shower, or even your bathroom vanities need an overhaul. It might be time to get a refit if you are still dealing with that whole peach or avocado set from way back. White is generally your best option as you can kit it out with beautiful candles, a lick of paint on the walls, and some gorgeous modern copper or rose gold details. Lighting makes a big difference too.
This is also a great time to pick up some cute storage boxes that can keep your miscellaneous items tucked neatly away and out of sight.

Green
In every spa, you will find a lot of different plant types. Not only do they purify the air, but the green naturally relaxes you and brings a little bit of the great outdoors inside. Great options are succulents, air plants, and spider plants. They do well in the humid conditions that can be in the bathroom.
