Deep breath in, exhale out…ahhhh. If there’s one goal I have in life it’s often to make everything emmulate a spa, or at least evoke that spa-like feeling. I set my goals on weird things 😉 Ever since I was a young child, I’ve appreciated the cozier, more relaxing things in life. Give me anything lavender scented and I’m in love. Show me something that will shower my face with steam and I’m buying it. A shower mist to fill up your space with santal and sandalwood? Absolutely.
Our bathroom was turning into everything opposite of a spa-like experience. The counters were cluttered with 10,000 creams, serums, and who knows what. Our bath mat was half orange thanks to water that had escaped the shower, our towels were from when we got married [which feels like a hundred years ago ;)] and every time I walked in this space I was reminded to go take an anxiety pill. Not necessarily the spa-like vibes I had been going for.
I recently set off on a mission to transform the space back into the haven that it deserves to be. I turned to Macy’s to make it happen — thanks to their Friends & Family Sale, you can save an extra 30% off + 15% off beauty with code FRIEND, now through 11/4 [exclusions apply!] I love some of their brands that bring that spa-like, luxury feeling home – from Hotel Collection to Environment for scents [they are the best!] they have everything you need to create the spa [bathroom] of your dreams! Here’s how I did it:
1. Towel Warmer
The thing that you never knew you needed but as soon as you use it, you’ll never want to go without again. Is it a necessity? No. Is it wonderful? 100%. Who enjoys stepping out of a nice hot shower only to be greeted by cold air? Not I. But when there is a hot towel waiting for me to wrap up in, it takes all of the edge away! Note: this is also an awesome gift to give to that person on your list who has everything!
2. Luxury Hotel Collection Towels
Hotel Collection Ultimate Microcotton Bath Towel Set
There’s just something about crisp white towels that polish off a space! I love the freshness that they bring and these towels are nice and plush giving those 5-star hotel quality vibes!
3. Luxury Scents
Environment Sandalwood, Vanilla & Amber Hand Soap // Environment Sandalwood, Vanilla & Amber Lotion // Environment Santal, Tonka & Musk Diffuser // Environment Sandalwood, Vanilla & Amber Room Spray
I am a HUGE scent person – scents really can make or break an environment and I’ve always been willing to spend a little extra on home scents to make the place I spend the majority of my time in feel warm, inviting, cozy, and luxe. These Enviroment soaps, lotions, sprays, and diffusers not only smell amazing, but look so modern and chic in any space as well!
4. Plush Robe
Hotel Collection Faux Fur Robe
I might be a self-proclaimed robe junkie. I will not settle for any robe – it has to be plush, warm, cozy, easy to wrap up in, and one that I can easily spend hours in. This one does not disappoint. I love the look of it as well!
5. Shampoo, Conditioner and Soap Dispenser
simplehuman Bath Accessories, Wall Mount Triple Pump
Last but certainly not least, another item I never knew I “needed” but now that I have it, I don’t want to go without. Do you know when you’re at a hotel and they have these dispensers in the shower and you feel so fancy [and kinda high tech for some odd reason] using them? Well, you can create that same feeling in your own shower! Bonus: it eliminates bottles sitting on your shower shelves or floors which if there’s anything I’ve learned about how to create a spa-like enviroment, the less clutter the easier to achieve!
