Imagine relaxing at a spa in a warm bath… basking in exotic fragrances.
A flute of your favorite champagne in your hand and relaxing music mesmerizing your ears… playing in the background. Who would not want that!
Spa days are exotic. They relax every last muscle of our body. We all yearn for them. Whether it is someone from the office, or a parent of three looking after their home, their kids, and their job; everyone deserves a spa break.
But how many get to live this pleasure experience? Few. Sometimes it’s the schedule, other times it’s the pocket.
What if we tell you that your next spa break can be whenever and however you want? Don’t believe us? Fair enough!
Here is an article to help you achieve a spa experience right in your bathroom.
Add an earthy color palette to the walls
The minute you enter a spa, the aesthetics of the place ensconce you in a cloak of relaxation and serenity. You can get the same experience in your bathroom by implementing earthy tones in the color scheme of the space.
Paint the walls in the shades of your choice to accentuate the appeal of your bathroom. If you are confused regarding how to go about it, you can always look up for custom bathroom remodeling ideas on the internet.
You can also go for tiles or wallpapers if you are not a big fan of paint.
Look for some gilded goodness
Gold color is the most significant attracting feature of spas! You can add that to your bathroom. It can either be shades of gold in décor – wallpaper, tiles, or paints – or you can replace ordinary handles, and sanitary with gold shaded ones.
Remember, the finer the details are, the more exhilarating your experience will be.
Warmth on the floor
Wooden tiles on your bathroom floor would not only help you recreate the spa feel but would also give the place a touch of elegance. Warmth is often associated with spas, and we suggest you add creative rugs as an alternative to regular bath mats.
Do this and see the place spruce up!
Invest in spa-ish soak equipment
Since half of the spa experience is about warm soaks, there is no denial in the fact that you would need to invest more in the sanitary department than anywhere else!
If you are going big on remodeling, then add new bathtubs and bathtubs and showerheads in your expense sheets.
Of course, a massage showerhead, a vintage clawfoot tub, and marbled bowls are sooo tempting… Irresistible!
You can even opt for brushed nickel, or oil-rubbed bronze faucets to add a little opulence to your bathroom (read: spa).
Play some music from the shower walls
Did you ever go to a spa without soothing music? No! Music is significant to the spa experience. Invest in some good quality music equipment.
But, a word of warning here: The moist steam could cause damage to your music device. If you are worried about this, then wireless Bluetooth speakers were created just for you! You can find a lot of options online and choose one that is reliable.
Control light and scent
Can you imagine a spa with glaring white lights and Kleenex burning a hole in your nostrils? We bet you cannot. This is why we would like our readers to pay special attention to light fixtures and scent control in the space. Getting lights with dimming options could work best for you.
Purchasing a reliable oil diffuser would be a smart choice. After all, burning some exotic essential oils like Neroli, jasmine, and floral lavender would take you perfect spa heaven!
Indulge in fancy candles
If you, too, are a candle connoisseur, then this point is precisely what you needed to read! Getting some luxurious candles can make your spa at home experience heavenly. You can come home after a tough day at work and have a leisurely soak with rose petals caressing your skin and some of your favorite candles burning in the room.

Help yourself with a caddy
From helping bibliophiles read in the tub, to letting you enjoy a flute of your favorite bubbly to relax, a bath caddy could be your best friend. If you are planning to get a caddy for your home spa days, then we suggest that you look for something that adds value to your experience.
Getting a caddy that is their clear or made of a high-quality material would give you all the posh feelings that you truly want. Spending a little here would be a fraction of the total cost of a spa day at an expensive resort.
Change your towel storage
People just don’t give towels the importance they deserve! How can they do that? They are often forgotten when people plan spa days at home. You can do a lot of things to incorporate fancy towels into your lifestyle.
You can add a ladder instead of traditional towel storage to improve the overall aesthetic. But if you have a smaller space, then you can easily hang the fancy towels on a minimal stand.
Add plants to the mix
One cannot miss out on nature when they are enjoying spa time. You can add a few pretty succulents to your creamy walls or hang a lovely fern near the window too. If you are skeptical about the maintenance, then artificial flora would work just fine.
Remember, air plants increase the sophistication twofold!
In the end
If you want a spa in the bathroom but want to save the experience for special days, then you can easily make these changes in the guest bath.
