We’ve been in our new residence for over 6 months now and I don’t assume I’ve actually proven you something however the pantry (which wants an up to date image as a result of it now has a whole shelf of home made pickles that makes me puff out my chest massive time each time I see it).
I assume in my head I image all these residence design blogs (which I’m not) with gorgeous earlier than and after photos. I maintain ready to get my areas to the ultimate “after” with all of the touches earlier than sharing and due to that, I’ve nothing to point out.
However I’ve modified my pondering. Our properties are speculated to be ever evolving areas, aren’t they? I’ve been including to ours, but additionally being cautious to solely add issues we love. I’m a agency believer that residence design ought to mirror the particular person dwelling there. I like after I stroll in a pal’s residence and it simply feels like them, you recognize?
With this objective in thoughts, I’ve tried to grasp type ideas, but additionally go boldly within the route of issues that make me really feel pleasure. In any case, my household and I live our lives on this area and I would like it to really feel like us and serve us, with in the end perform trumping kind in some areas (like our espresso desk that almost all would say doesn’t “go” with the lounge however serves as a sturdy base for our chess board, shut the field, and children sitting on prime of it.
With that prolonged rationalization out of the best way, I’m excited to share with you an area that I’ve been most enthusiastic about transforming- our powder room!
I used to be excited to personalize this area as a result of it’s a room everybody will see and it’s sufficiently small so as to add loads of persona to pretty rapidly. Right here’s a take a look at what it regarded like once we moved in:

I liked the bones of this room. It’s massive window letting in loads of pure mild. The sunshine flooring and the impartial cupboard and counter tops with a champagne bronze faucet. Nonetheless, the Greek Villa partitions made the area really feel so sterile. One may argue that sterile is sweet for a loo, however I used to be excited to essentially lean into this area and go daring.
And daring I went! I discovered a wallpaper I liked and received on the set up schedule of Mike Bradshaw (who was fantastic to work with!), and shortly sufficient, my powder room reworked into this:
.
This area now makes me smile each time I stroll by it! I like the colours, the daring floral sample, and the heat and persona of the area.

Is it utterly “completed?” Most likely not, so. I’d like to get a framed piece of some form of artwork to go over the bathroom, however artwork is one thing I’m having the toughest time with in our residence. I would like and wish it on the partitions but additionally don’t need to go select random items that don’t converse to me not directly, so I determine a few of that must include time.
Okay, one final earlier than and after for enjoyable; and thanks for stopping by my powder room! 🙂
