Bravo! What a beautiful transformation.
I don’t have the courage to try wallpaper anywhere , but you did it and it comcompletely changed the bathroom from generic to fabulous!
Awe, thank you so much! That means a lot to me. I was nervous about trying wallpaper too, especially for a whole room. It felt like a huge step! But once I found the right one, it really brought the space to life. I’m so glad you like it!
If you ever decide to give wallpaper a try, I’d suggest starting with peel-and-stick. It’s easier to work with in my opinion, and you can remove small sections at a time if needed. That made the process way less intimidating for me.
Looks really lovely, congrats! How were you choosing an actual wallpaper, what was the process for you?
I am curious about both 'ideation' and a finding an actual item to purchase
Thank you so much. I really appreciate that! When it came to choosing wallpaper, I kept things simple and budget-friendly. I went with a store selection that had discounted options and landed on a near-neutral design that felt calming but still added personality. For me, peel-and-stick was the way to go. It’s the easiest to apply and forgiving if you need to reposition. I’ve used it twice now, and it sticks really well! I browsed places like Etsy, Home Depot, Lowe’s, and Target, each had some great options depending on your style and price point. The process was more about finding something that felt right for the space and wouldn’t break the bank. Hope that helps if you’re thinking of trying it out!
Thanks for sharing! It's quite hard to get to the "feeling right though", you must. I personally have to start on a high level (mood, feeling), then more practical (can it work here) then pricing… or sometimes pricing comes first
You're welcome, and I totally get that! Finding what feels right can be tricky! I did this guest bathroom as part of the One Room Challenge (a biannual event that challenges participants to transform a space in six short weeks).
Having a tight timeline helped me quickly figure out what would actually work. Afterwards, I fought hard to stay within budget.
Do you have more shots? I am considering building a similar bathroom!
Absolutely! If you click on the "Head back to this before and after" link at the top of this page, it should take you to the original post. Good luck with your intended bathroom redo!
The wallpaper is great, made a huge difference. I did the same, hooks for towels in lieu of towel bars.
Thanks so much! The wallpaper really changed the whole feel of the room. Towel hooks instead of bars is such a small switch but it works so well. Glad we had the same idea!
