3 Steps to Designing a Powder Room with Personality

Powder baths are a great opportunity to give your home some real personality. They are typically smaller spaces, but that doesn't mean you can't go BIG with ideas. Here are three ways to do exactly that!

1. Powder Rooms are Prime Spaces for Color

One of the easiest and best ways to make an impact is to bring color into the room. Adding wallpaper, using a textured or colored vanity, painting the walls and even hanging the right art can give the area a “wow” factor. It can change the whole feeling of the space. Imagine walking into your powder room covered in a patterned, bold wallpaper.

Imagine taking your white vanity and painting it a dark green or even black. Imagine painting the room a bold color. Imagine covering all of the walls in framed art so the entire space becomes a gallery. All of these ideas make an impact!

2. Add Statement Lighting for Some Pop

A second way to make your powder bath more beautiful is to add some great lighting. Lighting goes a long way in creating an ambiance. Using a hanging chandelier in a small space is a great way to not only make it brighter, but also make a statement. Having sconces flank a mirror is a great way for people to get a better look at themselves and also frames out the vanity and mirror.

Lighting enhances the style of the entire space.

3. Use Finishes to Elevate the Elegance

Lastly, making sure you have the right finishes in your powder bath complete the look. Using a nickel faucet and mixing it with gold sconces and a mirror create an elegant look.

Taking a reclaimed wood vanity and mixing it with black or bronze finishes in the faucet, mirror and lighting creates a more relaxed and comfortable look. Using a floating vanity with a funky mirror creates a modern feel. The list can go on forever, but choosing the right finishes to go with space will complete the look.

Tackling your powder bath is a fun and easy project that can add some real zest to your home. Now is the time to go for it and get it done! And don't forget to have fun with it!
