Christmas is a time for getting together with family and friends to celebrate the season and one room that will definitely be used by everyone is the powder room. Updating this room to be guest-worthy can often be done on a small budget. After all, it’s only a sink and a toilet.
Replacing the vanity will set the style of the room and updating the toilet with today’s water-smart technology will save you money in the long run. Because the powder room is a small space and people won’t be spending a lot of time in it, you can have some fun with the decor if you wish.
Go bold with the colour of vanity you choose or perhaps a patterned tile on the floor. Or you can play it safe with the more permanent features of the room and go for a dramatic colour on the walls. Adding wainscotting or shiplap to the walls will give your powder room a traditional look or go for stone veneer behind the vanity for contemporary style.
Other decor considerations include the light fixture, mirror, towel rack and faucet. Because it’s a small room, these items should co-ordinate with each other but not necessarily match.
Choosing one metal colour like trendy matte black or burnished gold will visually tie them together. Powder rooms are not prone to high moisture like the main bathroom so it’s a great place to display artwork on the walls.
