Do you have one for your guests?
I LOVE remodeling a powder room!
I look at each room in a house as a place that gives purpose beyond the obvious. A powder room is a space that I love to make a cozy retreat with unique attributes while still blending into the home's atmosphere.
And here's why …
A powder room is a guest's haven.
A powder room is a place where your guests can excuse themselves, whether in the most matter-of-fact manner or as a haven to regroup their thoughts. Either way, providing a calm space where your guests have permission to retreat is a kind gesture.
I have been to gatherings in acquaintances' homes and needed just a moment to refresh from the many new conversations I was having. I was grateful for the slightly dimmer lighting and smaller space that made me feel cozy and ready to mingle again.
It's a great place to show your personality.
A powder room is great for moody walls, fun wallpaper, and unique sinks. Maybe not all of those elements together … and yet … maybe?
I like to blend the main aspects of the powder room with your home for cohesion while adding specific parts of your personality.
For instance …
Wallpaper might not be something you want throughout your home, but a small room is an excellent canvas for it! If you're not a wallpaper fan, then utilize a paint color that is pulled from the decor in your home.
If you're more drawn to the accents in a home, then focusing on choosing a unique sink, faucet, and lighting is a great way to show your personality.
My ultimate goal will always be to provide a quiet place for my guests.
I've been having fun pinning powder rooms on Pinterest and included the board below.
Have a great week, and don't forget to drop me an email to chat about your remodeling plans!
