Please help with lighting and mirror for this tiny powder room
Comments (5)Allison - the detail on your mirror is just gorgeous! I'd like to find something similar, but perhaps in an oval shape, given the angles of the vanity. I very much like your sconces also. Thanks so much for posting pics. It helps me visualize my space much better. Thank you, brutuses. This little vanity was purchased on ebay and shipped to me last February! It's been sitting in a crate for most of the year waiting for my much delayed remodel. Was it you who was also converting an antique dresser into a bath vanity? If so, I remember your picture and it was just what I wanted, but unfortunately that style was too big for my space....See MoreIs this vanity a mistake in this tiny powder room?
Comments (117)squirrel~ The space under my stairs is the area straight ahead when you walk into the room. Is that the area you were also referring to? It did actually have an opening to that area that drywallers trimmed out. I had them cover it up, as it really looked awful. It was a huge eyesore to walk in the room and see it next to the toilet area. :o( It was meant to be a doorway for access to the heating vent. Well, let's hope that heating vent never has to come out, because it's now walled into that space. WE'll have to tear out drywall to access that now. LOL! I am fairly minimal in my decor. I like a few giant candle holders/candles. A few gorgeous small photo frames, a great iron knick-knack of some kind. That's about it. A few paintings on the wall, or in this house hoping to find tapestries. So for me, the shelving/display space does not have to be a great amount. I guess the real reason I wanted countertop space was I wanted to use "guest napkins" with our monogram on them in that powder room. One of our good friends' used to use those for their parties, and I always liked the idea. Couldn't wait to have a "powder room" to use those in! I've found so many great "guest napkins" on sites, and really want to utilize them in my new space. So... I've got to figure out a little shelf or something handy to hold those towels should I go with a tiny iron vanity like those I pictured. Do you have any ideas where I would find a nice glass shelf that could hold those little rectangular guest napkins? You all do know what I'm referring to, correct? I could google glass shelf maybe? Anyone care to point me in a specific direction? :o)...See MoreTiny vintage powder room needs something
Comments (39)It's all great except for the towel ring! (And the roller shade, but you've addressed that!) Very pretty room. I bet my windowless powder room is even smaller than yours ;) If I were you, I'd ditch the towel ring and put a very simple hook centered under the window, and use fingertip towels instead of full-size hand towels. We have little hooks for towels in all of our bathrooms. I wouldn't get too decorative with it, just a simple hook that doesn't come out too far from the wall. I am also a fan of window film. There are lots of options online, from basic etched glass to more decorative patterns. In your case, I'd go simple....See MoreHelp with my 1930's tiny powder room
Comments (64)I agree with the suggestions to retain as many of the original fixtures as possible. I love period bathrooms (especially early 1900s) so much that I bought 2 old medicine cabinets off of eBay, very much like yours, when we were having our house built. The mirrors aren't perfect, but that just adds to the charm IMO. And as already noted, in your case it wouldn't be the primary mirror in that bathroom. For above the sink, I think an apothecary mirror would look great. For a small bathroom, one toilet paper storage option is to put extra roles on the handle of a plunger. We keep a plunger in our powder bathroom, and I painted the handle (it used to be bright yellow) the same white as our walls and use that to store extra rolls. It tucks into the corner so kind of disappears unless you're looking for it. Just an idea that might work for some....See Morepurrus
