    All that you expect after a long hard day’s work is to draw a nice bath and rest yourself for some time. Bathtubs, originated from the concept of mini pools that can fit in your bathroom according to the dimensions of the room and can provide you with the best of times you spend to clean yourself up and take a hot bubble bath after being extremely exhausted.

    There are basically two ways to install your bathtub; you can use regular car jacks to fit in your bathtub by the standard framed bathtub installation process. The length of your tub depends on the size of your bathroom. You obviously have the option to choose your bathtub from the store according to the dimensions or you can even go for a freestanding bathtub installation process that needs much less space than the standard bathtubs. Before buying one, obviously you need to know the exact dimensions of your bathroom and how you want your tub to fit in keeping the plumbing points intact.

    Each décor item in a bathroom is very important due to the small space availability. It is very imperative to choose the right accessories that complement each other because all fabrics and fixtures in the bathroom are very close to each other. The importance of rugs lies in the fact that they offer warmth and comfort to the small bathroom space and also helps in unifying the decoration.

    When choosing the rugs you first need to determine if your bathroom needs one or two rugs. Ideally there should be two rugs, one in front of sink and another one outside the bathroom when you step out of the shower. When placing the rugs measure the space it takes. Measuring the space makes it easier to shop for the rugs. Select a color palette for your rug which unifies with the other bathroom color schemes and make it look big.

    A multi hued colored rug works best as it combines colors of wood, flooring and the bath curtains in the bathroom. In case of the pattern select a plain or muted design as it will balance the design in the bathroom.

    Converting your Shower into a Sauna

    Posted In: Bathroom & Accessories by carbonfreehomes

    Instructions

    1. A bowl of ice water should be kept in the bathroom next to your tub in case you feel too hot.

    2. All doors and windows in your bathroom should be shut off.

    3. Your shower door must be closed most of the way. The shower drain should be drained and the tub should be filled with five to six inches of the hot water.

    4. Sitting on the edge of the tub for 15 to 20 minutes, you can lean over the water slightly to feel the heat rising with comfort. Breathing the air deeply you should try to relax your body as much as you can. If you feel the heat is too much, the washcloth and ice water should be used to dab at your face and body to cool yourself.

    5. The sauna should be finished by draining the tub and rinsing with a lukewarm shower.
