15 tips to accessorize your bathroom 

1. Colour scheme

Whether you are going for earthy and nature-inspired colours such as a subtle and subdued sage green hue or a grounding taupe, or bold colours such as navy blue with brass or gold accent that exude lavishness, it is important to select matching bathroom accessories to create a sense of coherence and harmony and influence the perception of space and size in a room.

Adding a stark white bathroom set can be a miracle worker for a sage-hued bathroom. You can also use wooden wall-mounted shelves or framed mirrors to pull the look together into one that is reminiscent of the purity of nature. The theme will also make your space appear roomy and inviting, allowing the interplay of natural light and brisk air to soothe you and your loved ones. Alternatively, you can go for bathroom sets and dispensers with rich colours and sharp accents to fuse with the luxurious and timeless appeal of an intimate bathroom with bold colors. 

2. Installing smart appliances in bathrooms

As the preference for smart “everything” continues to rise, the surge for tech-based home appliances has been skyrocketing, with a sizeable percentage of the millennial population seeking such attributes. From interactive LED mirrors that keep you updated on the weather and latest news to smart showers with temperature control, flow rate, and shower duration, embrace the power of technology and make your bathroom experience a convenient and hassle-free one.

3. Towels

Textiles are the unsung heroes of bathroom accessories, and their role in enhancing the aesthetics and comfort of a bathroom may often be overlooked. Consider investing in high-quality soft cotton towels, which are not only durable but also absorbent and quick-drying. While you may feel grabby around more premium options like Egyptian, they have been found to have an effect on softness and absorbency. It is also important to be mindful of the color scheme of the towels to go with your bathroom interior. You can also invest in embroidered His & Hers towels to turn every bathroom experience into a special and memorable one for you and your significant other.

4. Bath Salts & Candles  

Transform your bathroom into a haven of relaxation, and set the mood for unwinding by drawing yourself a bath with some scented candles on the side. A surefire mood enhancer, soak in the delicate and soothing notes of citrus and say goodbye to worldly worries. Many studies have also shown that watching the flickering light of a candle helps promote better sleep.

You can also incorporate bath salts and bath bombs into this immersive self-care routine. Not only do bath salts alleviate muscle cramps, but they are also widely known for promoting better sleep. These two elements will take your bathroom beyond being a transient place of coming and going and turn it into a hub of tranquillity. A glass of wine, some music, candles, and a fizzy tub - the perfect self-care routine!

5. Use Color-Coordinated Soaps & Toothbrush Holders

In the pursuit of a well-decorated bathroom, it is the little things that count. Bathroom items that are typically kept in close proximity create a visual appeal as a whole rather than as individual pieces. Imagine the serenity of stepping into a bathroom where the soap, soap tray, and toothbrush holders seamlessly blend with the towels, shower curtains, and overall decor. You can either make your own DIY marbled soaps or purchase them, and place them right next to Nestasia’s refined marbled bath sets.
