mirror and pendant choices
Comments (16)I love the mirror. You can't go wrong with an arch top bevelled mirror, especially paired with a china pedestal sink. I love the sink. I'd put money into high quality, pretty faucet, but I'm sure you are going to. Unlike the others, I'm not loving the pendants. It's just me, I guess. But they seem a bit of that rustic style that is so popular these days (altho the rustic is usually bronze), with metal guards around it. A bit bulky looking for the delicate looking china sink and arched mirror. But maybe they look more delicate in person. I'd never thought about it before, but what I notice when I walk into a new bathroom is the sink/vanity and faucet first, the mirror (if it's eye catching; otherwise, I don't notice it, I think).

Comments (9)Along the lines of the comment above mine, I was going to suggest that, if you are using paneled wainscotting, that you put recessed shelves behind one or two of the wainscotting panels across from the toilet and have hidden hinges and a pop-out-when-you-push-in system for opening the wainscotting to reveal hidden storage. It can be recessed into the wall cavity if you do not have room to bump out the wall in the next room. That will hold regular rolls of TP, bottles of cleaner, the brush for the toilet (hang it on a hook and put a plastic tray under to catch drips), and stacks of folded washcloths and hand towels. Be sure to have the other wainscotting panels milled just a bit thicker to match up to the extra depth that the hidden doors hang....See MorePowder rooom renovation
Comments (10)I think the current layout is awkward in that you walk right into the toilet practically as you enter the room. If you can, I would put it to the left of the vanity and have a shorter vanity. Do you need the cabinet space or can you down size it? Your kitchen is lovely and I like the colors. However, I appreciate it when there is a distinct difference between a powder room and the rooms surrounding it. It lends a greater feeling of privacy, which I think is desirable. I would go very dark on the walls and walnut on the vanity. It will still feel relatable to the kitchen but quite separate....See MorePowder Room Renovation
