Wood

Sometimes, it’s hard to make a small space feel styled and put together, especially in an area like a bathroom. One way to make your bathroom look and feel more luxurious is to update the space with a few accessories. The easiest idea is to make a cool wooden bathroom mat that will add a natural touch and a chic feel to the space. The hardwood used for this wooden bathmat is actually re-purposed slats from the headboard. Get inspired!

This simple and modern bath mat brings a spa-like feel to your bathroom and is an easy enough project to tackle over a weekend! Take cedar because it’s an affordable water-resistant wood, that’s also soft, so it’s great for stepping on; teak would also be a great choice if your budget is a little higher. Wood bath mats might take a bit to get used to, but the clean, modern look definitely wins us over!

This creative and patterned bathtub is made of IKEA outdoor decking, yes, it’s not only a bathroom mat, it’s an IKEA hack project, which we all love. To make the bath mat all you need is 6 squares of the pre-assembled outdoor decking. The wooden squares are created in a way that allows air circulation below the mat, so the water drips through the mat, and then the air dries it quickly. Genius!

Pebbles

Such a bathroom mat will bring a spa feel to your space like no other because it’s covered with pebbles! It’s a usual rubber mat covered with smooth ocean or river stones – make sure they are porous, not slick and polished. The amount will vary on the size of the mat and can be found near rivers, oceans, or your local craft store. You may also collect some pebbles during your beach vacation, and this way you’ll remind yourself of it each time you’ll be stepping on it. Get inspired!

Grass And Moss

If you are in mood for a naturalistic and very unconventional bath and shower mat, then this one tops them all. This is a moss bathroom mat, and moss is a great material for making a mat. Moss gets its moisture and nutrition from the air around. They thrive on damp air which makes bathroom the perfect place for the moss shower mat. Not only that, moss is known for collecting harmful particles like smoke and bacteria and absorbing them.
