Half Bath Redo

Feb 11, 2013 By Layla

Now that the sunroom is at a good stopping point (for the time being), we’ve decided to move on to a itty-bitty space that sits right next to it: our half bath.

As you can see in the first floor layout above, it’s the only bathroom on the main floor of our (1728 sq. ft., 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath) house, and since it’s the one that gets “visited” the most, we’d like to make it an extra special little space. #SmallSpacesAreMyFavorite!

Here’s what the room looks like right now…

…and here’s an inspiration board I put together that shows what we’ve got in mind:

(1- Daydream Wallpaper, 2- Sky Chief Barn Light, 3- Dresser (ours), 4- Wainscoting Photo, 5- Hex Tile)

We’re excited to start pulling the whole thing together (on a budget!), and we look forward to sharing each step of our “renoventure” here on our blog!

PS- Speaking of small spaces: the folks at Bedrooms & Baths magazine featured our old reading room in this month’s issue!

I stopped by the old house (to picked up some mail) yesterday and it was so neat to see that the new owner is having just as much fun with the house as we did!

    hi layla,

    your bathroom plans look beautiful! i’m a huge fan of anything bird printed. and anything green!

    can i ask a question? how much do you spend on decor per month, would you say? i’m asking because i, too, have a relatively new house and i’m at a total loss as to how much is a reasonable amount to spend. right now my house is a giant empty space, a clean slate. you should see it! it’s truly hilarious. you’d never know anyone lives here. i can’t wait to get the ball rolling but i’m intimidated by so many things! mostly where to start!

      Hey Ashlee!

      I’m not sure I could ever put a number on how much I spend on decor per month. It totally varies from month-to-month. Sometimes nothing, sometimes something! It all depends what’s going on, and if we can afford to do anything. 🙂

    I love the mint green accents and the birds in flight wallpaper! It will be an adorable scene in the small space!

    Layla, I loooove the wallpaper! Well I love it all, but the wallpaper caught my eye! My husband and I are re-doing our office and we were looking for something whimsical for the ceiling – you know to help us want to go into the office 🙂 !! May I ask where you got the wallpaper? Thanks for your wonderful ideas and your help!
