Light Some Candles

11/23

The spa experience is all about creating a mood, one that soothes the senses and promotes well-being. One of the easiest ways to create that mood is with the soft, flickering glow of candlelight. Cluster votives or tealights on the vanity, window ledge or around the tub for a long, stress-relieving soak. And be sure to mix in some varieties that are infused with a relaxing scent like lavender, known to help in countering stress and fostering a sense of calm.

Limit the Light

13/23

The light surrounding your vanity needs to be reasonably bright for daily shaving and beauty regimens, but you don't need the same brightness when soaking in the tub. Replace the lights in your bathroom with GE LED+ Color bulbs. The remote-control operated bulbs have 10 different color settings—two white temperature colors in soft white and daylight, and eight RGB vivid color settings—so you can always set the right mood.

Comfort Yourself with Cotton

Bring in Some Plants

16/23

Another easy way to add natural elements to your bathroom? Bring in a few houseplants. Varieties like aloe vera, ferns, and pathos are just a few types of houseplants that thrive in the bathroom, thanks to the high humidity inside the space. On top of that, they act as air purifiers. Place them around the tub, by the toilet, or even inside the shower. Available on Amazon; $29.99 for four-pack clean air collection plants.

Try a Little Opulence

17/23

Like the Roman baths of centuries ago, stone continues to add a richness to the modern bath. Retiling a bathroom is a messy and expensive project, but you can change the look of your bathroom with peel-and-stick tiles. MSI's Natural Stone Peel & Stick Mosaic Tile is a mix of soft neutral shades and textures. Use it as a new backsplash behind the sink or wrap it around the base of your tub. Available on Wayfair; $13.26 per square foot.
