This Chloe Vanity Stool from the Protege Collection is one such vanity chair.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Don\u2019t you just love the idea of soaking in a hot tub after a long, tiresome day at the office? What could be more relaxing, right? But what would you do if the bathroom environment isn\u2019t exactly spa-like? Here are some quick tips for creating a relaxing bathroom or toilet so that the next time you come home from the office, you\u2019d have someplace else to go other than the bedroom \u2013<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fragrances are a Must <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A wonderful place to begin is by using scented candles or diffusing fragrant oils. No bathroom is relaxing without these essentials. Try rose and chamomile to soothe the senses. Try to buy some candles that have a complementary scent to your bath gel or body soap. This way, you won\u2019t end up being confused with the different scents inside the room.<\/p>\n<p>Other relaxing scents include ginger and spice, lavender, and any citrus oils (e.g. lime, wild orange, lemon, and bergamot).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Set Up Some Mood Music <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To do this, you would need to have some speakers installed inside the bathroom. Since water and electricity must never mix, you should have a licensed electrician set this up for you.<\/p>\n<p>The ceiling is one of the best places where you can install your bathroom speakers. Or you can have Bluetooth speakers set up on the sink while you\u2019re in the tub. Just remember to have these removed once you\u2019re going to use the sink once more.<\/p>\n<p>Before you take a bath, create a playlist of the most soothing music that you can find. Press play then enjoy your bath.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4191\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" ><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4191\" src=\"http:\/\/mccreerys.blogs.eprevue.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2017\/08\/Maitland-Smith-Bathroom-Classic-Finished-Cast-Brass-Lion-Soap-Dish-With-Hammer-Blue-Shell-Accents-1254-339.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"384\" height=\"288\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Maitland-Smith Bathroom Classic Finished Cast Brass Lion Soap Dish With Hammer Blue Shell Accents 1254-339<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Use the Right Accessories<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Of course, a relaxing, spa-like bathroom will only look and feel serene if it has the right accessories. Elegant accessories that every bathroom must have are \u2013<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Again, those scented candles<\/li>\n<li>Liquid hand wash dispenser<\/li>\n<li>A hamper with clean lining<\/li>\n<li>Soap and shampoo dish<\/li>\n<li>Lid boxes for those Q-tips and makeup sponges<\/li>\n<li>Glass vases for those scented, fresh flowers<\/li>\n<li>Tissue holder<\/li>\n<li>Shower curtain<\/li>\n<li>Wall sconces (these will up the level of quiet elegance inside the bathroom)<\/li>\n<li>Wooden bathmat<\/li>\n<li>Trash bin<\/li>\n<li>And the bath tray plus other ornaments. As for the bath tray, just make sure that it won\u2019t hold your cell phone, tablet, or whatnot since these will only interrupt with your Zen-like ambiance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Add according to your bathroom requirements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dress Up the Window <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A bathroom with a window \u2013 especially one that looks out to a lovely scenery outdoors \u2013 is a blessing. Of course, you would need to dress up this window for a little privacy. You can have curtains hung just halfway up. If you\u2019re feeling more adventurous, you can also combine draperies with balloon shades. There are also others that use shutters since these require very little maintenance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Focus on Lighting <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The most restful bathrooms have the correct kind of lighting. You should shun fluorescent lighting on the bathtub and shower areas as this will only make you feel more active (this is best used as a task light). Use it, though, on areas where you will brush your teeth, do your makeup and style your hair.<\/p>\n<p>For bathing, general ambient lighting would do. Use dimmers so you won\u2019t hurt your eyes on the ceiling lights that you install. For best effects, use wall sconces that are installed at eye level. This is the proper height to cast just the right amount of light that would show your facial features.<\/p>\n<p>For decorative lighting, you can always rely on a chandelier to do the job. Make sure that the materials used on the chandelier complement the other design elements inside your lovely loo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Don\u2019t you just love the idea of soaking in a hot tub after a long, tiresome day at the office?
