Ten Home Décor Ideas Inspired by April Showers

Pluviophiles (aka lovers of rainy days) rejoice. It’s April, a month synonymous with showers — not to mention, the perfect time for freshening up your home décor.

In the spirit of the season, we’ve rounded up a slew of rain-inspired merchandise, from uber-relaxing showerheads to covetable new lighting from master glass designer Alison Berger.

Omega Jacuzzi Steam Shower Cabin

Touted as one of the most expensive showers in the world, this stunner from Pininfarina sports four hydro-massage jets, a steam generator, and a raindrop-fixed shower head. But what we love most of all is the sexy curved wooden seat which creates a gentle cocoon effect.

Chromotherapy Shower Head

Set the appropriate color (choose among nine LED lights) to suit your mood. Purple, for example, helps reduce anxiety by encouraging the problem-solving part of your brain to take over. Other hues increase happiness (orange), impact circulation (red), and promote circulation (blue). Colore’s rectangular-shaped enclosure is made of soft silicon material and features an anti-drip system.

Saint Kitts Steam Shower Room

Aquapeutics’ decked-out steam-sauna combo comes complete with six acupuncture body massage jets, aromatherapy, and rain forest shower head. There are also some techy features including a wireless media center for streaming songs, shows, and even sporting events. 

Rain Round Chandelier

This swoon-worthy lighting fixture is the handiwork of Los Angeles-based glass designer Alison Berger. Part of a collection for RH, this dramatic chandelier engages the viewer in “an ever-changing pattern of expansion and compression — much like the rhythm of a rainstorm itself.” Choose vintage brass, bronze, or satin nickel.

Rain Multi-Light Pendant

LED lights shine through glass diffusers to create the effect of falling raindrops. Fully customizable, LODES offers a variety of lengths and finishes.

Rainy Days Wallpaper

Perfect for a kid’s room or powder bath, this whimsical wall covering is from Australian design studio Love Mae.

Scattered Shower Rug

Made of 100 percent recycled fiber, this ethically-sourced, hand-tufted rug features a freeform spot pattern on a backdrop of smudged blues.    

Make It Rain Cerulean Fabric

This cheery, colorful print is from Kelly Ripa’s Outdoor Collection. Offering 500 hours of UV protection, it’s mold, mildew, and stain-resistant.

Pluviophile Rain Candle

This eco-friendly Haeckels candle captures Petrichor — the scent of dust after rain — with notes of earth, ozone, salt, moss, and concrete.

Vintage Prince Purple Rain Poster

Considered to be one of the best albums of all time, Purple Rain is highly regarded as the rock legend’s “Magnum Opus.” Warner Bros printed this rare vintage collector’s poster in 1984 to accompany the album’s release. An added bonus: It’s in perfect condition.
