Soaks' Bathroom Aesthetics

It is easy to think about the normal bathroom appliances, like your toilet, shower, sink etc but to make your bathroom yours you must consider the other bits and bobs. Soaks Bathrooms have a few ideas that can make your bathroom aesthetically pleasing to you and your visitors.

Bring outdoors inside

The use of plants in your bathroom is a newish trend that has been sneaking its way into a lot of bathrooms. This bathroom trend came along with earthy colours' rise in popularity. Although this is a growing trend you cannot just put any plant in your bathroom. Bathrooms tend to fluctuate in temperature so they require certain plants. We have found the best plants for your bathroom

The Bird’s Nest Fern is a leafy green plant that is arguably one of the easiest ferns to keep alive indoors. Air plants are perfect for bathrooms as they are able to soak up all the humidity created in your bathroom, the Tillandsia is a perfect example of this plant. Aloe Vera is one of the most well known indoor plants. As well as this plant being suitable for your bathroom it includes beauty benefits, its gooey insides can be used to help soothe skin, heal minor burns and reduce itches. Finally, the snake plant is known as being nearly impossible to kill, which if you're not the best at keeping house plants - this is the plant for you! This plant tends to grow faster in bright light but can still grow with a little less light if needs be.

Relax & Unwind with candles

Candles always prove to be a lovely addition to any room, and your bathroom is no different. Many people just bring candles in when they are having a bath but if you leave your favourite candle in your bathroom all the time it will not only look the part it will leave a hint of your favourite smell. 

Soaks Bathrooms top candles picks of 2021 begins with Jo Malone Peony and Blush Suede candle. This candle is warm and comforting with a floral hint, perfect for a relaxing feel to your bathroom. The new August & Piers Socialite candle not only has a beautiful scent, its packaging is a chic, ceramic pot that will add to the beauty of your bathroom. Our last pick is the Liha Beauty Queen Idia candle. This candle has a very simple style that is perfect for your bath time. Inspired by the famous Yoruba Queen Idia, who was a symbol of female empowerment, not to mention its light dreamy smell with hints of lavender.

Bathroom Artwork

Putting up artwork in your bathroom may not be the norm but in 2021 it has become a bathroom trend. When it comes to choosing artwork for your bathroom you must decide what type of vibe you are going for. Paintings can add an elegance to your plain bathroom as well as something to look at while enjoying a relaxing bath. Some of Soaks Bathroom top picks include wood art, abstract paintings, acrylic print and simple imagery prints.

Mirror Mirror

Every bathroom must have at least one mirror… they are an essential. Stand alone mirrors are not the usual pick for a bathroom mirror but they do look good! If you have the space in your bathroom a long stand alone mirror can really bring your bathroom together. We think they work very well with modern and simple bathroom designs. If you do not have the space LED mirrors are another wonderful bathroom trend of 2021.

Shelving

The norm for bathroom storage has always been a cabinet either above or below your sink, but 2021 is changing this. Instead of hiding everything away in a cabinet, storage shelves are on trend for bathrooms this year. These shelves came in different forms. This trend has wall hanging metal shelves and stand alone wooden shelves. Other trends are objects that have been refurbished as shelves i.e. bar stools. This trend does not just look cool it is also super eco-friendly!
