How to Turn Your Bathroom Into a Spa with Items From Around Your Home

Your bathroom should be a tranquil oasis. And, as you are required to stay home during this pandemic, it may be the only space in the house where you can escape to be by yourself. While you may not be able to undertake a bathroom remodel right now, to help you transform this room into a relaxing haven during this trying time, we have put together a list of simple changes you can make using items from around your home, the grocery store, and the drug store.

Soothing Lighting

Soaking in a tub or taking a shower illuminated by soft lighting is a great stress reliever. Add some candles to your bathroom to surround yourself with comforting lighting.

Plants

With a pop of green, a plant brings life, color, and interest to a space. Plus plants are known to reduce stress levels and boost moods. Move a plant from another room into your bathroom or pick some up next time you go grocery shopping. If you don’t have natural light, place some flowers or greenery in a vase to bring the outside in.

Diffusers

Place an oil diffuser on a shelf or the back of the toilet. Diffusing essential oils, particularly lavender, fills the room with a calming scent.

Natural Soaps

The aromatherapy of natural soaps are very calming and their hues make the bathroom more inviting.

Bath Salts

Bath salts are filled with soothing properties. They have been used since ancient times to relax the body and alleviate muscle pain. Add a few glass jars filled with colorful salts to the room. Their colors are engaging and their relaxation benefits are plenty.

Loofahs, Sponges & Brushes

Make your bathroom more luxurious with loofahs, bath sponges and wooden brushes.
