I have plans!

I "decorated" the powder bathroom downstairs when we first moved in. Basically, I just went out and bought some accessories to feel like one space in the house was done. It was when we have moved in, but didnt own the house yet (it took longer than we expected to close so we had to move in before purchasing) and I was feeling overwhelmed with decorating but not fully owning the house yet. Anyway, now that we have been here for a year (crazy!), I am feeling a little more accomplished and ready to make some bigger decor decisions. I still feel like I have so much to do in this house, but I guess I really dont. Its come so far, but I will always have projects and things changing, because thats who I am.

Anyway, I wanted to spruce up the powder room downstairs and make it a little funkier. 

Right now, the walls are still gray from when we first moved in, and theres a jar pendant from west elm. I have told this story a hundred times ad nauseum, but the sink was created by a craftsman from concrete and pieces of glass found in the yard before the house was built. I think its a cool, unique addition, and I dont want to replace it. The sink rests on a wooden shelf/countertop, which I think balances the cool concrete really nicely. BUT- I do want to girly it up a little and make a little crazy in there, per my usual. :)

I had mentioned last week that I bought the Rifle Paper Co. wallpaper sample from Hygge and West.  I still love and adore it, and I think Ive come up with a better solution for using it. As you may know if you read my blog a lot, I like to CHANGE things up quite often. Paint colors, furniture, accessories -- nothing is safe. So, the idea of using wallpaper might be a little nuts for me, but I think I am going to paint all the walls in there black, then only use the wallpaper on the back wall that the toilet is on. Toilet accent wall. Hah. the ceilings are really tall, so it will be impactful, then the pattern will reflect in the mirror to bounce off of. And since this paper is pricey, Ill only have to get one roll, and only one wall will have to be papered, so it will be much more cost effective for my mind-changing self.

Heres the paper:
