Powder Bathroom Transformation: A Pinterest-Inspired Makeover

A powder bathroom, often the smallest room in the house, presents a unique opportunity to unleash your creativity and make a big impact with a small space. This blog post details how I gave my powder bathroom a stunning makeover, starting with finding design inspiration on Pinterest and culminating in a beautifully transformed space that perfectly reflects my style and flows with the vibe of the house.

Finding Inspiration on Pinterest:

The first step in any successful makeover project is finding inspiration, and Pinterest is an excellent platform for this purpose. I created a dedicated board for my powder bathroom makeover and pinned images that caught my eye. The chosen theme for this project was black paint with earth tones, gold accents, and greenery as the pop of color. Follow me on Pinterest and see some of my bathroom inspo pictures below.

Creating a Vision Board:

When motivated, I go the extra mile to create vision boards to help me stay focused on the theme and not overspend on other shiny objects. I didn't do that this time, so it took us longer to complete the project because I bought pieces that had to be returned because they didn't work with the original vision. So, I recommend creating a vision board once you have gathered your inspiring images. You can create a digital board using tools like Canva or physically by printing the images and arranging them on a corkboard. The vision board will be a visual guide throughout the makeover process, ensuring you focus on your desired aesthetic.

Sourcing Fixtures and Materials:

To bring your vision to life, you'll need to source the necessary fixtures and materials. Build.com was an excellent online resource for finding our bathroom fixtures, from the faucet and sink to the lighting and hardware. Take your time browsing your favorite online store or brick-and-mortar, and choose pieces that align with your chosen theme and budget.

Hiring a Contractor for Tile Work:

While some DIY enthusiasts may opt to tackle tile work themselves, we decided to hire a professional contractor to ensure a flawless finish, especially since we have no clue about tile work. If this is your sentiment, research local contractors with experience in bathroom renovations and request quotes for the tile installation. By entrusting this task to a professional, you can rest assured that the result will be beautiful and long-lasting.

Finding the Perfect Finishing Touches:

Once the hard work is done, it's time to add the finishing touches to make your powder bathroom pop. Home Goods is a treasure trove of unique and affordable decor items. We got the black framed wood shelve, accent towels and chain decor, and the small potted plant to bring in the desired greenery from Home Goods. These small details tie the entire space together, giving it a unique look with an elegant vibe.

The Wait and the Worth:

Undertaking a powder bathroom makeover requires patience, as it may take time to source the right fixtures, find a contractor, and gather the perfect finishing touches. However, the wait is undoubtedly worth it when you see the final result. I love my bathroom; the black paint with the gold accents and pop of greenery created a sophisticated and inviting atmosphere that is a hit with guests and family members.

It's a Wrap:

A powder bathroom makeover is an exciting project that allows you to transform a small space into a stunning oasis. You can achieve a remarkable transformation by starting with design inspiration, creating a vision board, sourcing fixtures, hiring contractors, and finding the perfect finishing touches. The process may require time and effort, but the result will be a room that reflects your style and leaves a lasting impression. So, roll up your sleeves, gather your inspiration, and have fun creating the bathroom of your dreams.
