Powder Room Upgrades!

Whether you call it a half bath or a powder room…you can’t deny that this little nook with a toilet and a sink has been getting personalized with some stunning upgrades lately!  Ever since I picked out this light fixture with a client for her powder room I have wanted to revisit some of the very distinct and different extra touches I have seen trending recently!

Here are my favorites:

Wallpaper:

Wallpaper has been making a comeback and the smaller out-of-the-way space of the powder bath is the perfect place to experiment with something bold!

Tip- Try choosing a larger scale pattern for a small space.

Lighting:

Add in a stunning little gem of a chandelier, like my inspiration for this post, and you have a real focal point in a room where there really isn’t much else to look at!

Tip- Keep in mind that the wattage of the bulbs doesn’t need to be as bright, since the purpose of the room is for guests and not getting ready.

Vessel Sinks:

Available in almost any style and color nowadays- this one in royal blue has a matching faucet designed to eliminate the splash most commonly associated with vessel sinks.

Tip- Choose a faucet that compliments both the style and the height of your vessel, in some instances you might mount the faucet to the side.

Stone Walls:

The cost of a stone or mosaic tiled wall can be a pricey upgrade in any space, so the smaller square footage of the half bath allows you to splurge on the look for less!

Tip- A furniture piece vanity and a simple framed mirror will allow you to see more of the stone, since it is almost a sin to cover any of it up!
