Luxurious Bathroom Ideas on a Budget

High-end spas are famous for delighting the senses through beautiful views, relaxing scents, and warm touches. Transform your bathroom into a high-end spa with these luxurious bathroom ideas.

Add Warmth and Comfort

Towel Warmers – Wrapping your body in a cold towel after a hot shower isn’t the best way to retain body heat – especially in winter. One of the necessities of a luxurious bathroom is having a towel warmer.

Your bath towels will stay toasty kept in a towel warming drawer or hung on a wall-mount heated towel rack. Furthermore, it’s one of several affordable luxurious bathroom ideas key to an enjoyable morning routine.

Electric towel warmers are designed to gently heat your bath linens to a comfy temperature. They are also sold in a wide range of styles including –

• Wall-mounted racks
• Freestanding plug-in units
• Vanities with built-in towel warming drawers

Pro tip: Heated towel racks are also excellent for drying wet towels, as well as warming quilts and baby blankets.

Massage Showerheads – Upgrade your daily cleansing routine with a high-end showerhead that provides an invigorating massage. It’s a simple way to add relaxation and comfort to your bathroom without spending a lot of money. Additionally, it’s a premium upgrade that you’ll be using every day.

Frequenting a day spa for a body massage may be wonderful, but it can be expensive. A massage showerhead is the next best solution.

Massage showerheads work by ejecting water under increased pressure. Water touches your skin with a gentle massaging action to relax tight and tired muscles.

Some massage showerheads come with a pulsating feature. When set on “pulsate” the showerhead varies the spray – increasing and decreasing water pressure. This water variance makes for a pleasurable cleansing experience.

Pro tip: If you prefer a gentle, rain-like spray, consider a rain showerhead for a refreshing wash.

Additional massage showerhead positives include –

• Installation is relatively simple – it’s very similar to adding a regular showerhead – some brands make it even easier.
• Plus, a massage shower is therapeutic, relaxing – and fun!

3 DIY Ways to Add a Spa-Like Feel to Your Bath

Add a “green” touch to your bathroom with humidity-loving plants. Tropical greenery thrives in the low-light, high humidity conditions of most bathrooms.

Place plants on a windowsill, shelf, or in a hanging basket. Furthermore, if your bathroom doesn’t have windows, fluorescent grow light on the countertop works just as well.

Here’s a listing of house plants that grow well in a bathroom–

• Boston Fern (Nephrolepis exaltata)
• Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum)
• Philodendron (several varieties)
• Aloe Vera (Aloe barbadensis miller)
• English Ivy (Hedera helix)
• Orchid (several varieties)
• Snake Plant (Sansevieria trifasciata)
• Spider Plant (Chlorophytum comosum)

More quick tips to give your bathroom an at-home spa upgrade –

Install light dimmers to soften bathroom lighting – perfect for a relaxing, late-night bath.

Luxury spa interiors are also blissfully clutter-free. Why? It creates a sense of calm and order.  Avoid visual clutter by hiding bathroom essentials in drawers and cabinets.

Additionally, organize countertop essentials in pretty, covered jars – keeping a sense of order.

A great way to give your bathroom a relaxing spa-like feel is to update the wall color to a calming color. Spa walls are often painted with neutral shades and earth-toned colors. A fresh coat of paint and a monochromatic color scheme will give the whole room a soothing effect.

You can switch out your shower curtain to coordinate with your new wall color. A simple color palette gives your bathroom a more balanced look.

Make your bathroom your own personal hideaway with these additional spa essentials:

• Tealights
• Scented oil diffuser
• Wood bathtub tray
• Music via a waterproof Bluetooth speaker
