The bathroom is our sanctuary. It's the only place in the whole house where we can truly be alone. Why not use it for relaxation? We inspire and suggest how to set up a home spa in your bathroom.
Stepping through the front door doesn't always bring the peace we crave. Troubles (both beloved and otherwise) often await us under our own roof, and we have to face them head-on. However, there's one spot on the map of your home, an oasis where problems can't touch you – the bathroom.
Only in the bathroom can we truly be alone... and we mean literally – just slide the bolt to cut yourself off from the rest of the household. Everyone needs that sometimes, let's not kid ourselves! Perhaps we don't spend a third of our day in the bathroom (like in the bedroom) or entertain guests there (like in the living room), but its decor should not be neglected. For one simple reason – the bathroom is for us, so we have every right to feel good in it. Take care of your bathroom's decor, and you'll take care of your well-being.
Your private relaxation zone – inspiration
Bath caddy
The Romans knew a thing or two! They spent half their lives feasting and drinking wine, and the other half in the baths. History put an end to their excesses, but we can certainly learn a lesson from it. Let's indulge in wine in the bathroom to make sure we have some time left for work and duties ;)
A bath caddy is a great option for those who are looking for maximum comfort. If you plan to spend a lot of time in the bath, perhaps reading a good book, then a caddy will be spot on. Minimalists might be perfectly happy with just a wine glass holder or simply the edge of the tub.
Scented candles
When you hear "relaxing bath", you picture a bathtub, bubbles, and candles. Quite right! These three ingredients are the foundation of any home spa. While we can't provide the first two, we have scented candles in spades. If you're looking for a specific fragrance, we invite you to our physical store, where a wide range of two FA-favourite fragrance brands awaits your nose and your senses – WoodWick and Max Benjamin.
For the body, for the soul
Your bath wouldn't be complete without charming, fragrant soaps, which make washing a sheer delight. Bamboo with charcoal particles, juicy mango, or perhaps a peeling with sesame seeds? Meraki loves to spoil, so don't hesitate to dive into their ideas. After all, they were created precisely for such relaxing moments in the bathroom.
If just relaxing isn't quite enough for you, how about a brief stint as a... mermaid? Such an unforgettable experience can be yours with an application of amber dust scrub. After your skin has been pampered during your bath, it needs to be gently dried. Use a soft towel to ensure that leaving the tub also has its charm.
The perfect culmination of your bath will be pampering your skin with nourishing shea butter, which boasts not only skincare but also therapeutic properties. How is this possible? Alba1913 has made sure that the cosmetic contains lavender oil and lemon balm; gifts from Mother Nature, ideal for frayed nerves.
For those keen
To make baths, quick showers, and even hand washing a pure pleasure, take care of your bathroom's decor. Is it worth the bother? Absolutely! The bathroom isn't just a functional space – like every room in your home, its appearance significantly impacts your well-being.
In the FormAdore Magazine article Everywhere is good, but in the bathroom there is peace – a domestic haven of respite, we inspire change and shower you with ideas for bathroom arrangements. Without chipping tiles or replacing taps :)
