Wallpaper for powder room thoughts?
Comments (23)Cindy - thanks for the info, the back of the paper does state it's washable, so hopefully they mean it! Shermann and Andrea - I have my challenges with little boys but this is our powder room, most of their cleanup happens between the basement bathroom or their upstairs bathroom. i can see the light switch being an issue, the paper states it's washable, so hopefully that will help. Treasure - you did not post your room in my other post so now worry. It's gorgeous, I was leaning towards #2 until I saw your room. Wow! thanks nutmegxo and caminnc- The wallpaper looks much more blue on the screen than in real life. In person, it's almost a blue/gray or even a hint of green to it. My house is pretty much a blank slate right now. We painted the foyer and the family room when we first moved in almost 4 years ago. I'm not a fan of the paint colors and will repaint. This mirror is right off the powder room and I love it. Since they are so close in proximity, do they work together ok?...See MoreBest Wallpaper for Powder Room :)

Comments (17)Thanks everyone! @Jinx That is the right one! Ive seen it in person and the colours are more like the picture I posted. @tartanmeup I never considered how it would look with the flooring. Maybe you are right that the contrast is too stark. I know the paper is dark and so I also have samples of the two. below. Do you like these better? Which one? One wall? All walls? What paint colour with it? Like the blue one above, the scale on this is bigger. I have samples of both and the colours (on my screen at least) are pretty true to the real thing. This is why I LOVE this site. You are all so so helpful! :)...See Morewallpaper powder room
Comments (26)Complicated wall paper patterns have the potential to visually shrink a small space even smaller. Could you add a high horizontal "chair rail" on the wall above the countertop / sink level and wallpaper only that back wall behind and above the sink and toilet with the mirror covering part of the wall over the sink and open shelves over the toilet. See how you like that before doing the other two walls. If you do only above the "chair rail", you get the pattern you like added without having the design over power your small room. You could pick a color from within the wallpaper for the rest of the wall. You might even consider a vertical "wainscoting" or paneling for below the "chair rail". You might even consider a faux window on one wall. Lighter colors -- white door and trim -- and pastel walls are going to give off a more open vibe than darker colors. https://www.houzz.com/photos/wallpaper-powder-room-ideas-phbr1-bp~t_713~a_3406-20866...See Moresas95
