You love relaxing at the Spa. but these day's the budget isn't working with the extra expense of going to your favorite Spa. Well that doesn't mean you have to deprive yourself. Just turn your home bathroom into your own private spa. Make your bathroom a sanctuary where you can relax and get away from it all. Remember the old calgon commercial? "Calgon take me away." That was selling plain old bath salts. But the idea was right. we all need to relax some times.With a little effort you can have your own personal Spa right at home.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • soft heavy cotton towels extra plush.
  • a bubbling bath mat.
  • comfy slippers
  • fresh flowers
  • candles and candle holders. fragrance diffuser with relaxing blend of scents.
  1. Step 1

    All the best Spa' s use the heavy cotton " Turkish towels." You can too. just go to Walmart, K mart or Burlington coat factory and find some great buy' s on super plush, extra heavy cotton towels. They are so soft and extra absorbent.

  2. Step 2

    Now if love soaking in a hot tub or whirlpool, but don't have the cash or the space to put one in your bathroom, just pick up a thermal spa bath mat. you love the soothing bubbles that relax you from head to toe.
    You can pick one up at most mega stores and / or department stores.

  3. Step 3

    Don't forget your plush robe and comfy slippers they just are so much a part of the whole relaxation theme. Oh and don't forget to float fragent fresh flowers in the tub with you. This just adds a hint of elegance.

  4. Step 4

    Now just put on some soft music as you relax in your bubbling tub of water and breath in slow and deep to catch the wonderful scent from your fragrance diffuser and the flowers floating in your tub. It's like a little heaven on earth.

Tips & Warnings
  • be sure to set aside time to relax and enjoy an uninterrupted home spa experience
  • This could become habit forming!

on 10/9/2009 Sounds heavenly, unfortuneately due to a knee injury I can only take showers as my knee won't bend enough to let me lower into the tub.
