My bathroom redo…..

My hubby and I recently revamped our powder room. I wanted a quick fix to what I felt was to dark of a room so we (hubby did most of it) painted the walls a crisp white, wallpapered the ceiling and painted the mirror a sunny yellow. I am happy with the results. Its bright, chic and cheery!

   B-T-dubs: When I saw this on D*S I told my husband about it. Then I told my mom about it. That's how much I loooove it. It's genius, Grovey. Plain and simple.

   nice! the yellow is such a popper – good choice! and the ceiling wall paper? I love it! My mom once did the same in our powder room, with wallpaper that had a cloud feel to it. It was very cool… thanks for sharing. I'm inspired!

    Thanks everyone for the sweet comments! xxCallie and Krissy- I got the mirror at Target a few years ago. It was apart of the Global Bazaar section.bagfashionista- It is the same as my bedroom. I had so much extra that I wanted to use it somewhere else. I purchased it at a local wallpaper store. Here is a similar design…http://www.designyourwall.com/store/Elizabeth-Neutral-Faux-Flocked-retro-modern-damask-wallpaper-GB17528E-pr-2811.html
