Our main floor powder room has actually been mostly finished for quite a while now (considering all we did was wallpaper and put up shelves) but since it took me foreeeever to find, order and receive the shelves, it's been hanging in Loo Limbo. Until now! Behold.
Before, yellow as heck:
 |
| Hieeee! There's me and my big fancy camera that I don't know how to use. |
And After:
(seriously, some one teach me how to take pictures. Although the room is like only 8x3 or something so it's a little hard to get up in there.)
 |
I found the glass box at Home Sense, the Voluspa candle was a gift, and I found the little framed picture for $5 at the St. Lawrence Antique Market in Toronto. It's of this Victorian lady stepping out of a carriage. It's cool.
And of course, a basket to hold extra rolls of toilet paper. Because you wouldn't a simple trip to the bathroom to become awkward for your guests. I'm a practical sort of host.
And here is the light fixture, from Royal Lighting (in Toronto).
And finally, this is my failed attempt to capture the entire room in one photo. You can see my arms holding the camera in sideways blindly firing off shots. Whatever.
All in all, I think I created a really nice place for guests to pee in my home!

Oh it looks fantastic!! I love the wallpaper and the mirror, especially. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI really like it, and your commentary is hilarious! Awesome job! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you:)
DeleteI love the wallpaper...Home Depot you say...hmmm. The basket is great for the TP stash. Very nice! And good job on the pics. Really, a powder room is hard to get too many angles of. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that wallpaper and mirror - they absolutely make the room. I can't take pictures either, and my bathroom is much larger than yours :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Jan! I am just photo-challenged all around :)
DeleteWow! I'm going to have to go search for wallpaper at Home Depot! Great makeover!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I also saw some faux grasscloth wallpaper that was pretty nice on my last visit!
DeleteIt's lovely! The wallpaper really brightens up the room ans shows off the mirror and picture youu have hanging there. Seriously, I didn't even see the picture in the first photo. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!

DeleteIt is gorgeous! i just did mine too, if you have time, please check it out, though I haven't posted my decor yet, just the wall paper part. I am thinking of putting up Warhol Chanel ad in my powder room, but not sure if it will go with the wall paper. Great job!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI will, thank you!
DeletePretty pretty!
ReplyDeleteLove it! SO jealous...we have the worlds ugliest bathroom-pink and maroon from 1948. UGH. Good thing we are moving :)
ReplyDeleteI have beeen looking for that style of mirror for awhile. My HomeGoods offered a small one, but not your size :-(
ReplyDeleteSo pretty!! I love that wallpaper. I think we just installed the same mirrors in our master ensuite....loving how it looks in your powder room!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your powder room wallpaper...just gorgeous! I see it was purchased at Home Depot - can you share the pattern name/number and manufacturer? Thanks in advance!
ReplyDeleteHi Donna! Thank you! I just checked online and I'm fairly certain this is the paper (By the Wallpaper Company, 20.5 In. W Blue and Cream Mid-Scale Damask on a Moire Background Wallpaper):
Deletehttp://www.homedepot.ca/product/205-in-w-blue-and-cream-mid-scale-damask-on-a-moire-background-wallpaper/905312
I say fairly certain because it looks different online than it does in real life. But I don't see anything else on the Home Depot website that is similar. We purchased this paper in Canada, so depending on where you live it may or may not be available. Hope that helps!
I found it!!!!

Thanks so much for your help, Teresa....I hope my powder room can look as awesome as yours!
Wow I can't even believe how off I was! HA! I'm so sorry - apparently I don't even know what my own wallpaper looks like. It was late at night and I had had a couple glasses of wine...in my defense. Lame defense I know.
DeleteI'm glad you found it! I'd love to see pics when you're done!
Love!!! I looked up the wallpaper online at Homedepot.ca but wasn't able to find the product number. Would you happen to know the name or manufacturer?
ReplyDeleteHi JW...it's by The Wallpaper Company in Blue Pastel Sweeping Damask Wallpaper. Model # WC1282666
DeleteCheck out the link Donna provided above from HomeDepot.com's website (http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1v/R-100629508/h_d2/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10053&langId=-1&keyword=damask+blue&storeId=10051&superSkuId=203063921)
It's the US website, but maybe it will help you find it on the Canadian site? Or you can contact the manufacturer directly? Good luck! And thanks for stopping by my blog!
