Powder Room Wall Mural
After years of working on this powder room (okay, most of it was "in my mind!"), it is finally finished. I just wish my photos did it justice. The Susan Harter wall mural is amazing. Everyone says it looks like handpainted in place. The magnolia chandelier came from The Grand Hotel in Point Clear, AL. The sconces are two of four, originally from our first home purchased in 1985. I purchased the antique mirror yesterday.

5 years ago(Can we still not post more than one photo in the OP?!) I'm going to have a talented friend paint the outlet. In hindsight, I should have fought harder to have it removed. Not sure what, if anything other than hand towels and soap, will go on counter.

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.

Comments (7)Are the mirror and those scoances staying? I would do the whole space but I have really no clue as to your style . You will need to address the lighting before choosing wall paper and I see a very modern toilet but with the mirror and sconces not at all that style. I need info....See MorePowder room mirror & wall color help
Comments (15)You def need both recessed lighting and wall lighting especially if your style is coastal which is light and bright. On that note do you have any other bathroom styles you like? Because there are no windows here which really goes against coastal design (hard to execute without windows) Coastal design is inspired by beach homes in warm places that tend to have tons of bright natural light pouring in. Another thing I almost think keeping your old vanity and repainting it would lead to a better look sorry if I offend you but the vanity you included looks like a bare minimum standard cheap rental bathroom vanity that's in stock at the hardware store. Your current one has symmetry at least and you can change out the top. I agree with another commenter that the items you picked don't seem like a cohesive look. I don't know your time frame for this but I'd take a step back and think all the choices through from the knobs and pull colors to the trim colors. Bathrooms are one of the hardest areas to design there's a lot of things in a small space and you have to think about all of it together. I made this mistake on a bathroom and to this day I'm still trying to make it work 🙃...See More

5 years agoThank you for all the kind words. I'm so glad you all love it as much as I do! It is such a beautiful room. In case you don't remember, or haven't seen, here is the before:
During, with socket light/bare bulb so you can see the mural better:
After, I just had to take more photos this morning!
I had to laugh at your cot comment, alex9179, as I thought it was better before the commode was installed and had second thoughts about doing so. ; ) I can finally leave the powder room door open and have another beautiful "view!"
