Your bathroom is a place for self-care, so the room should make you feel calm and relaxed. Find out how you can make your bathroom feel more spa-like with these three ideas.

1. Organize your bathroom

Clutter is not conducive to relaxation. As a first step, tidying up is an easy way to make your bathroom more serene. Give yourself as much counterspace and room to move around as possible. 

Review the items on your bathroom floor, shelves and countertops. Place any items you don’t use daily inside cabinets, drawers, totes or baskets.

If you have toiletries that don’t go with your bathroom’s look or colour scheme, consider decanting them into your own beautiful, reusable bottles.

2. Brighten up your bathroom

Give your bathroom an airy look by incorporating reflective surfaces, such as mirrors and chrome fixtures. These will make the room feel brighter and larger.

When choosing bathroom light fixtures, opt for brighter bulbs. You can also incorporate candles in your bathroom design as more atmospheric lighting options.

If it’s been a while since you painted your bathroom, now’s a great time to do it. To nail those spa vibes and make your bathroom feel more soothing, consider neutral colours like soft grays.

3. Upgrade your linens and décor

Reinforce the spa-like feeling with details that will make your bathroom more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. Here are a few suggestions to get you inspired: 

  • Stock up on plush linens including bath robes, bath towels and hand towels 
  • Have natural décor such as hanging or potted plants that thrive in humid environments 
  • Place toiletries on a tray by the sink to make your vanity area feel more spa-like 
  • Use clear jars to hold small items and décor like seashells and bath bombs 
  • Decant toiletries into your own reusable bottles that match the room’s aesthetic 
  • Soften your floor with a rug that is water-absorbent and meant for a bathroom 
  • Add comfy seating mounted in your shower, overtop of your tub or in your dressing area 
  • Give your bathroom a calming scent with aromatics like lavender or grapefruit candles
