Increased Visual Interest

The toilet. Not much visual interest to write about, am I right? It’s not really the prettiest of objects in the home. But some people (husbands) spend a lot of time with it. I prefer the toilet to be out of sight. I love that ours has its own room. We’ve one other house that had a water closet and that is when we lived in Alabama. Did you know they put crown molding everywhere…even in the water closet.

Creating a Unique and Stylish Water Closet

I chose a pretty bold wallpaper design. It’s definitely modern, but I fell it still gives a cottage vibe. I tackled this project by myself, while Andy and Noah were on a camping trip. I know it took me longer to do it than it would have if Andy was there to help. But I promised myself that I would finish it in one day. The wallpaper I’m working with is the paste-to-wall wallpaper.

Design Ideas and Tips for Choosing the Perfect Wallpaper

I wanted to go bold. I think the water closet is the perfect space to experiment in. Most of our home is pretty neutral with some muted colors (besides the theater room). I browsed Pinterest for moody bathrooms, and I was hooked. I didn’t know if I wanted to commit to a full moody room, so opted to start in the water closet.

I think the bolder, the better in this space. You’ll get just a pop of that bold pattern when the door of the water closet is open. But you can always close that door. You can go with a bold floral or a stripe. You could try a smaller scale pattern with bold colors. I took in account the colors in our Master Bedroom. Because the wallpaper I chose had so many colors, it definitely works.

There are so many wallpaper companies out there these days. I like European influence for patterns. I do think that a bold colored wallpaper is more of a modern style. I really like mixing modern with vintage/cottage vibes. If you choose a more traditional pattern in bold colors, you’ll get that modern traditional vibe that’s so popular right now.

Added Personality to Your Space

I was originally going to hang shelves over the toilet, but after seeing the wallpaper up, I didn’t want to cover it up. I added a vintage frame with vintage art. I also changed out the toilet paper holder. The back of the toilet has some necessities for, ya know.
