My husband and I moved into our new home last summer; and slowly but surely (with the help of a very handy father-in-law) we are making this house our own.
Now it was time to update our first floor powder room. It’s a small but useful room, that needed a color boost and new accessories. The room was too small for dark paint; and the mirror was very overwhelming and ornate.
I decided that a bright yellow for the walls was the perfect color to brighten up this blah room. Then, we were on the hunt for room accessories to coordinate with our yellow walls. At Lowe’s, I found a wonderful oval white trimmed mirror. In our upstairs master bathroom hung a little shelf above the toilet; and immediately we knew it should be in this bath and it was painted white.
However, I needed an accent color. After long hours on Pinterest, orange became the color of choice. I found orange ribbon at Joann’s Fabrics; and the orange towels plus the potted plant and picture frame/print came from Ikea.
The end result was magical. What a huge difference!! Plus, this powder room was extremely inexpensive to update.
