Transforming Your Bathroom into a Home Spa

Tired of your functional but boring bathroom? It’s time for a change! It’s easier than ever to turn blah into wow and we’ve got some simple but effective tips to help you transform your bathroom into a home spa.

Transform the Floor and Shower

You want your spa experience to start from the moment you step into the bathroom, so you’ll want to change some of the most visible elements: the floor and the shower/tub. If it’s in your budget, replacing aging flooring with something new can dramatically change the look and feel of the space.

You have lots of options when it comes to changing your shower/tub, too. You could install a large soaking tub, or go with a luxurious rainfall shower, complete with natural stone. Of course, you can get a budget-friendly spa upgrade by just installing a rainfall showerhead in your existing space.

Add High-End Fixtures

Look around any spa and you’ll find high-end fixtures and luxurious surfaces. You have many options when it comes to luxury-grade fixtures for your bathroom, from heated toilet seats to illuminated bathroom mirrors. Don’t neglect your vanity, sink, faucet, and showerhead.

Add Live Herbs

Want to add a truly spa-like touch to your bathroom? Hang a bundle of eucalyptus leaves in the shower. As the steam rises, it will carry the scent upward, helping you relax and unwind. Other herbs that can be incorporated into your space include:

  • Basil
  • Lavender
  • Rosemary
  • Mint
  • Lemon balm
  • Chamomile
  • Sage

Invest in Lux Robes

When you think about visiting a spa, chances are good that you picture stepping out of an anti-aging skin treatment and into the soft embrace of a bathrobe. There’s no reason those robes can’t occupy a place of honor in your home’s bathroom, however. This is an area where splurging a little can pay big dividends. Luxury-grade bath robes will be softer and last longer than budget options.

Add a Bench

If your shower is large enough, adding a bench can give you a true spa-like touch and offer a space to relax and unwind. Opt for something made from durable acacia wood for a truly luxurious feel.
