do not disturb

Phone down, door shut, hands busy. These are the small projects and pastimes we bring into the tub, each one sized for a bath tray and made to stretch a soak out for as long as we like.

A bathroom features a white freestanding tub, olive-green tiled walls and floor, rust-orange curtains and robe, and a cream towel.

HOW-TO

A Spa Night at Home, the Stresscare Way

A spa night at home, step by step: the bedroom at 65°F, a soak at about 104°F for as long as we like, the playlist as the clock, and socks for after.

A bathroom features a cream bathtub, chrome faucet, pink tiled walls, and blue towel, with an open book, pencil, and yarn beside the water.

IDEAS

Things To Do In The Bath for a Long, Calm Soak

Things to do in the bath that make a soak run long: reading, a playlist, small handcrafts, a tray snack, a to-do list and hand shadows and the research behind each.

A small bowl of red seed beads and a beaded bracelet on a green towel on a white tub ledge, against striped pink tiles.

TUB PROJECT

Bracelet Making, One Bracelet Per Bath

Bracelet making sized to one long soak: how many beads fit a real wrist, which stretch cord to buy, keeping beads on the tray and the knot that holds.
