Creating a Relaxing Bathroom Space Your Family Will Love
*This is a collaborative post.
Having a beautiful bathroom to relax can make the world a difference to your self-care routine if you have a large bath with plenty of space for all your toiletries around the edge, or in a storage area, then it will take the stress out of an untidy bathroom, or losing things that you need. Ultimately you need to have a space that is comfortable and relaxing if you wish to have a bathroom that you enjoy spending time in. Many people can spend a good hour in the bath when they want to take some time out, so having a cluttered, untidy, or dark and dingy bathroom is not helpful for this. So how can we improve our bathrooms, and change them for the better, which in turn will make sure we have a bathroom environment we want to spend time in?

Storage
Making sure that all of your other products and toiletries are out of sight, can improve the look of the bathroom. Of course, it needs to be practical, and you do need to have some items to hand. At the same time, you are washing, but having the extra is strewn about the bathroom can have an untidy effect, Which can lead to a stressful environment. Having cupboard space and shelving to store all of these items is essential. Also vanities for the bathroom are also a great place to store your extra items. As well as being a practical item, since it’s where you wash your hands, you also have all the space underneath to utilize.
Paint
The paintwork that you choose for your bathroom can really have an effect on your mood. It has been proven that some colors are naturally more relaxing than others. Beautiful mint green can be wonderfully calming in a bathroom. And of course, the bright, bold colors may have the opposite effect. You can, of course, contrast and have accessories that are bright colors, but if you are looking for an overall relaxing, luxurious feel, then more pastel colors can work in your favor here. Adding in some artwork to this as well, such as the motivational quotes or photography that you love, can add depth too.
Accessories
Accessories in the bathroom can go along way to change in the overall look, some luxurious towels, and hand wash dispensers that add a little luxury, also help you feel as though you are in a relaxing environment. Some people aim for a hotel effect in their bathroom, because psychologically if we feel as though we are in a holiday environment, then we tend to feel a little bit better, and a bit more relaxed than we would otherwise. But the key here is to choose accessories that are practical for your everyday life and that you enjoy yourself. There is no point in purchasing things for your bathroom that you don’t love yourself.
Looking forward to drawing yourself a nice bubble bath, and relaxing in the candlelight in your new bathroom, is a great motivation to get started on your plans.
