How to set up a spa-like bathroom with sizzlers

  1. Place your wax burner safely: put it on a shelf or counter away from water and steam (but still in the bathroom).
  2. Add simmering granules: use 1 to 2 small spoonful's in your wax burner.
  3. Light a tea light: the gentle heat will release the fragrance.
  4. Add spa touches: rolled towels, candles, bath salts, and plants create the full spa experience.
  5. Enjoy: relax in your bath or shower and let the scent work its magic.

Tips for bathroom fragrance

  • Rotate scents seasonally: use fresh, citrus scents in summer and warm, cosy scents in winter.
  • Avoid overpowering scents: bathrooms are small spaces—use less simmering granules if needed.
  • Keep your wax burner away from direct water: place it on a high shelf or corner to avoid splashes.
  • Combine with other spa elements: soft lighting, candles, and plants amplify the spa feeling.
  • Use unscented products too: pair scented sizzlers with unscented bath bombs or soaps for a balanced experience.
