What Should Your Bathroom Decor Be According to Feng Shui?
Feng Shui fans know that there are some crucial rules to be followed for better luck in every room of the home, but when it comes to decorating bathrooms, they really do have a bad Feng Shui reputation, mainly because bathrooms are associated with water. However, there are some things you can take into account in order to keep the positive, clear and fresh energy in your bathroom.
As we already mentioned, bathrooms are viewed as a feng shui challenge as they are considered a place that has the power to drain the energy and money of your home/office, so the first step towards having a feng shui organised bathroom is to clear all the clutter. Taking a very good care of the bathroom’s cleanliness is of vital importance so cleaning it (and getting rid of all the unnecessary things) on a regular basis is a must.
Another important step towards creating a feng shui approved bathroom area is to understand that each bagua area has an element that needs to be supported and taken care of in order to create perfect feng shui in it. So, when talking about the bathroom, wood is the element you need to focus on since bathrooms have a strong water element which means that the more wood you bring into the décor, the better. That way you will create the perfect balance that will bring you wealth, happiness and serenity.
Regarding the colour, these types of bathrooms are all about brown and green colours that can be added with both real wood elements and plants. When it comes to plants, bamboo is the ideal plant that can thrive in a place like that, and when speaking about bamboo, you can also add real bamboo bath accessories that can meet the wood element rule. Soap container, brush container, toothbrushes and hairbrushes are just some of the many bamboo bath accessories you can add into your bathroom which except for keeping your money inside your home will also bring you lots of health benefits.
What’s more, bamboo is considered environment-friendly which means once you throw the item, it will break down, causing no environmental damages at all. Wooden chimes, figurines and even wooden mats are also another interesting options you can add to your feng shui bathroom. All of these things work wonders in balancing the energy of your bathroom, and the best thing is that they are pretty affordable, which means that you can get the best of both worlds.
