4 Tricks for a Calming Spa-Like Bath
Soak it all in.
If a complete bathroom overhaul feels way out of reach, focus on small tweaks that instantly transform your space. Here are four strategic updates designers use for a spa-like look without breaking your budget. Take a look.
1. Swap out your bath mat.
Skip the standard terry-cloth bath mat in favor of a small (think 2' x 3') patterned flatweave that brings warmth and personality to uniformly tiled floors.
2. Style your clutter.
Stash sink-side essentials, like cotton balls, swabs, and floss in coordinating clear canisters. Then bring in a ceramic dish for soap and a glass tumbler for your toothbrush.
3. Bring in a stool.
Place a ceramic garden stool by the bathtub or shower to keep towels and soap within reach. And when needed, just clear the surface for a spot to sit.
4. Add greenery.
Freshen up your vanity with seasonal blooms or add a hanging planter in the shower. (Bonus points for specialty selections with calming scents, like lavender or eucalyptus.)
