When it comes to decorating the home, the bathroom tends to get neglected. However, it’s usually not thought about the fact that the bathroom is mainly the first and the last room that people enter before getting up and going to bed. Since this space has so much significance, why should it get neglected? There are so many ways to switch up the style and the décor of a bathroom so it can be like a more relaxing space.

This can even include the smallest of bathrooms as well. Spas are wonderful and they have the power of rejuvenating us, and our bathrooms have the capability of doing the exact same thing. With the right accessories and planning, you can transform your bathroom into a luxury spa, and no, no tubs or saunas are needed for this transformation either!

Begin by looking at your countertops

Take a good look at your countertops in your bathroom, what exactly is on them? For most people, it’s their makeup, hair care accessories, and their toothbrush. What you’ll want to do is to remove the clutter and put it somewhere else in the bathroom such as storing it in a wicker basket or placing it underneath the sink in one of those cabinets. One of the easiest tricks for creating this beautiful spa-like bathroom is by simply removing the clutter and begin by adding some natural elements to the countertop. So look into place bamboo-made items, seashells, and other natural materials on your bathroom countertop. This tip can even be applied whenever you’re upgrading your kitchen!

Keep it minimal

Have you ever noticed that spas are never cluttered? This is one of their secrets for creating a nice and relaxing space. You’ll want to try to organize your space by removing all of the clutter. But this can also include the appliances within the bathroom itself such as the shower, tub, and toilet. If you plan to make any changes with these, you’ll first want to waterproof your basement first just as a precautionary step in case any accidents may happen.

Display luxurious towels

Towels are wonderful for adding some texture to your bathroom, as this is going to add a lot of softness to the space. You can also add some lush robes and some fluffy slippers to add some more comfy texture to the bathroom as well. These sort of comfortable and soft textures are often found at hotels and spas, and they make a world of a difference in terms of the atmosphere in the space. There are plenty of ways to display the towels such as nicely placing them on top of one another, hanging them on a towel bar, or even having them nice and snug in a basket. If you’re wanting nice and plump towels that are filled with fluffiness, then you’ll want to look for Egyptian cotton or Pima material, as these are mostly used by hotels and spas.

Incorporate some calm colors

If you’ve ever visited a spa or the wellness section of a hotel, you may have noticed the color scheme that they have. Spas will usually have natural colors such as greens, beiges, browns, soft grays, and whites. These are very organic.

picture ourselves in edmonton

14A mere week ago, Geoffrey and I were driving back from our trip to Edmonton, Alberta. We went there for a major buying trip for The Little Barn, coupled with a near end to the summer holiday. I love that city so much. It will always remain one of my favourite places to live in, and it is the place that I aspire to end up when planning out my latest adventures and life goals. 

Rather than taking along my camera, I decided to Instagram the entire trip instead. I’m beginning to regard Instagram as the highest form of social media. In my opinion, Facebook is filled with useless information about people that I am barely acquainted with, bad photos, and horrible grammar. Twitter is something that I cannot wrap my head around and am not yet clever nor interesting enough to spew out witty one-liners every few hours. Instagram, ah, she’s something else. Here is a tight-knit community of artists, poets, travellers, lost souls, and Facebook wanders who come together to discover new places, meet new faces, and experience beauty in a square photo. Well, minus the Facebook-ers. I love it.

So, my friends, here are my photos from our trip!

So, if you have Instagram, add me @hello_scarlett_blog so I can connect with you, too, on a deeper level. Did that sound creepy? A more intimate level? A more personal level? A more photographic level? You get the picture. The square picture.

Have a lovely week!
