Just because you have to share the bathroom with your husband and kids, it doesn’t mean you can’t splurge a little on some really cool accessories to create a special place to retreat. This goes way beyond a new shower curtain or a fancy paper towel dispenser or a handy automatic soap dispenser. Check out some of these luxury items to make the time you spend in the bathroom every day a pleasant and entertaining experience.
Awesome new mirror and light combinations are available in different designs that get the light where you need it, especially for applying makeup perfectly. Some of them even have heating elements that prevent steam from forming on mirrors after your shower so you don’t have to deal with constantly wiping off your reflection.
Turn your running water into a kaleidoscope of light with a nifty gadget that fits onto the end of the faucet and light up with an LED. Good for more than just making your guests oooh and ahhh, it’s a great safety feature for kids because the light turns to red as the water becomes hot and then turns blue for cold water.
Begin your day by getting ready to relaxing music or listen to the news on one of many splash-resistant radios that are available for bathrooms. There are even models with clocks and speaker systems so your MP3 player can stay dry in another room while singing along with your favorite tunes. If you want to get a little more high-end, a flat-screen TV can be installed into a tile wall or you can choose from a more portable model while you enjoy your bath or shower. No need to worry about having electronics near the tub because the speakers and remote control are totally waterproof and the screen is heated to prevent the condensation from forming.
Even toilet seats aren’t safe from modern technology. There are seats that have motion detectors so that a light which is stuck on the toilet turns on when you wander into the bathroom in the middle of the night. If you think you can handle more, then you’ll love the toilet seat light that turns red if the seat is left up by your inconsiderate hubby and turns green when the seat is put back down. Better yet, forgo the fancy lights altogether and keep the boys in your house out of trouble forever by treating yourself to the seat that lowers automatically when the toilet is flushed.
When cold weather arrives, you’ll be glad you have your very own luxury towel warming rack to keep your towels toasty and mildew free. Some models have multiple bars to accommodate the entire family and the whole rack may be mounted to the wall which will save valuable space in the bathroom.
If you like to keep a close eye on your weight, you might be interested in a body scanner that analyzes additional aspects of body composition such as muscle and bone mass, body fat percentage, body water and suggestions for daily caloric intake.
So, now you don’t have to take that weekend getaway to the luxury hotel with the fancy bathroom and spa. With these products, you can have your own little haven to visit whenever you want.
