Comments (20)Oh I'm so glad you appreciated the site! With the 10' ceilings, it could look amazing. I DO think of these as pieces of art. Unfortunately, saddled with 8' ceilings as I am, I haven't been able to fit this in...except in my wood burning stove room (hmmm.. maybe?). Please do post with pricing info once you receive. I may have requested and forgotten (as I tend to with unpleasant things). Anyway, absolutely love your wallpaper and color scheme. I guess I haven't been following. Is this a new build for you? How very exciting! If you have links to a blog or other posts with more details, I'd love to read more. Many of your choices just resonate with me....See MoreHelp me finish the powder room - I need tile help.
Comments (3)I love the godmorgan sink for their clever plumbing moving the ptrap to the back so that you can have drawers. I got one but my plumber threw up all over it for the cheap quality of the plastic in the plumbing. He did agree about the design and is building ours with the ptrap in the back so that we can do drawers using better quality stock parts. Mirrors.. I would suggest picking this first as this will drive much tile you need. Have you looked at IKEA mirrors. They are a good price point. Also home goods etc.. Faucet.. Online prices are much better.. Do you like the look of the faucet in the picture? I went with a simple version from a good quality brand for my regular bathrooms with a single lever. For powder room, I also wanted it to be fun and did wall mounted in antique copper....See MorePowder room accent wall ideas?
Comments (10)There is a relatively new product called Motion by AKDO (a tile maker). It's a slate composite that is engineered and adhered to a backing (similar to wall paper). Has the advantage of being able to wrap corners or cylindrical surfaces, and is of course quite thin compared to real stone. It does need a pro (not wallpaper installer) to install it but installation is a fraction of the cost of a tile or stone install. I think we did this one below for about $400 (not including the cost of the product). We've done a few fireplace surrounds with it as well. Interesting look. Something different....See MoreNeed guidance on lighting for a powder room remodel
Comments (7)I think you can have a pendant that's 10 inches in diameter whether it'll give enough light-depends on how strong lamp, in terms of wattage, it can take, and what design/material it will be..say non-clear glass will give you nicer diffused light, than going open bulb, or metal that will make the light more directed if you're completely rewiring..for example a pendant goes in the middle of the ceiling..then if you can, install a wall light /sconce on the wall where the switch is..you''l need to check with an electrician whether possible..I'm just talking about pleasing proportions and sight lines currently. No idea whether doable in your room. I remember being very surprized myself when I learnt the light cannot just magically hang in the space I want it to be, but has to connect to the box that has to be attached to a stud that has to be in such and such distance from the corner stud etc-but you're probably smarter than me (even just because it's hard to find somebody dumber than me in everything concerning electricity). Or. You can try and do pendant where you currently have the opening in the ceiling..but you might need to go with a smaller pendant. Then the sconce goes on the left to the future mirror. Obviously they sould complement each other. Won't be very easy. But would be an interesting challenge Or. You can find a very interesting light that's flush mount to the wall(celing)..and install it over the mirror...you'll probably have space because the ceiling's high. Many of such (often vintage, or vintage-inspired) lights are free-shaped..they imitate branches etc..and they usually have several light bulbs, so you'll have more light and maybe better distributed. But you need to love the idea.. and for it to go with character of your bathroom Or you go with simplest thing ever-do an over the vanity light. You can think of wallpapering the ceiling, or painting it different color, to show it off more. When hunting lights-don't forget to check out Etsy, eBay, Chairish, besides regular stores. You might not save time, but you'll save money, for better quality, and might give you ideas and show things that weren't even on your radar before. some shops on Etsy-the ones that actually make lights- customize their light fixtures per your request. You can ask for a certain size, etc. The customer service is usually very good. Sellers do care a lot about their repuration and feedback.,...See Morefifamom
