Self Pampering Ideas at Home: How to Create a Spa Atmosphere
Before we dive into our tips, the first thing you’ll need to do is jot down some notes about the things you love most about your favorite spa, then use those notes plus these top tips to begin your spa-at-home transformation.
Tip #1. Embrace minimalism + organization. Just like our products that feature clean and minimal ingredients, your home should follow these same standards. Less clutter = more freedom—freedom to experience greater peace, tranquility, and relaxation and less chaos and stress in your home.
Think about it: Your favorite spa isn’t cluttered with too much “stuff,” and everything has a place and a purpose. The same can be true for your home. Include only the essentials, and make sure that every essential is organized too.
Tip #2. Aim for balance. Combine various heights and shapes of objects to create visual interest. Need ideas? Visit your spa and take advantage of their service offerings while noticing what’s included in the overall environment. It’s all in the name of research, right?
When it comes to creating a great space, gather your items and follow Jess’ top tip: “group items in odd numbers (we love the number 3) and start with the largest pieces first. It also helps to place books first and then add in other decor.”
Tip #3. Choose comfort. Your home is your safe haven, so make it feel like that from the moment you walk in the door and into any room. And don’t forget to add the personal touches that make your home…your home. For comfort we love adding candles.
Remember that there’s no rush to transform your home, and it’s actually best to take baby steps to ensure you get the results you’re dreaming of. Now go dream up your perfect spa day whether it’s at home or in the spa.
