Today I’m sharing some before and after images from my personal home’s powder bath and boys’ bathroom. My husband and I bought our 60-year-old house in 2022, and have been making it our own ever since. I hope you enjoy!
Powder bath
I had the honor of working with Zoffany for our powder room—an absolute dream. I wanted something to play with the antique vanity and slate floor tiles, and complement the rich blue grasscloth and trim color in the hallway.
I landed on Emperor’s Musician in Charcoal. This beautiful chinoiserie scenic paper is inspired by oriental draughtsman Jean-Baptiste Pillement. The textured finish adds the warmth the room needed—and it’s even better in person. I also lightened the space by painting the interior trim, door and ceiling Farrow & Ball Old White No 4. I love how it pops against the slate floor tiles.
boyS' BATHROOM
We made some big changes to this small space, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. We created more square footage by pushing the tub back 5 inches into the closets behind it, and replaced doors with pocket doors to save even more space. We also took the bathtub tile all the way up to the ceiling, and put in a framed mirror that matched the detailing and color of the cabinets to make the space feel bigger.
We went with Benjamin Moore’s White Dove for the cabinet and mirror frame, and Farrow and Ball Chappell Green for the trim and door color. The wallpaper is Farrow and Ball Closet Stripe 357 from Celedore. I love how cheerful the green is, and how playful the stripes are.
