You know what the world needs? A little more positivity. Right? Who’s with me? Let’s practice right now. Rest your eyeballs on this bathroom’s before photo and say nice things about it. I’ll go first.
Wow! The toilet is soclose to the sink! One could wash their hands before they’ve even finished their business! What an efficient design.
How about that ultra-high, super-small mirror? No more wasting another minute of time obsessively examining after-dinner belly bloat from every angle. Not possible here, no ma’am. Out of sight, out of mind!
Sponge paint! What a delight! So nostalgic! Takes me right back to my youth in the ’90s. A simpler time, we can all agree on that.
Now it’s your turn. Let me know if I missed anything. But first, give your eyeballs a break and scroll down to the magnificent after ….
You thought I was being dramatic with the ‘magnificent,’ but no. It 100% deserves the superlative. From Laurel at Laurel Home who positively worked magic in this little jewel of a powder room.

June 14, 2018 at 5:40 PMThat’s not the after! It was just an inspiration shot. The after still has the toilet in the same place, bottom of this post. https://laurelberninteriors.com/2016/04/27/blah-powder-room-transforms-jewel-box/

June 15, 2018 at 4:05 AMWell, thanks LOR – for one moment I thought they had to pee in the sink.

June 15, 2018 at 9:44 AMI come to sing the praises of the tiny bathroom for the sick, pregnant mom. There is something to be said at having a sink close enough to vomit within whilst upon the throne. Or at least being able to grab a cool moist towel.

June 15, 2018 at 12:57 PMhaha – I was confused too – WHY would they pull a toilet out of a powder room?!?! 😉

June 15, 2018 at 2:15 PMI just figured they moved it to another wall?! Haha, I was too busy giving heart-eyes to the floor!

June 15, 2018 at 6:13 PMWith my shortness, I would not even be able to see in that mirror. No more bad hair days in that bathroom! 🙂

June 15, 2018 at 11:35 PMMeh, who cares if the pic is not the right one for the ‘after’ shot. I personally prefer THAT photo than the room at the end in Laurel’s webpage! I find her client’s makeover a little too dark for my tastes, but that is just me!

July 8, 2018 at 11:30 AMAmazing !!! The toilet is actually so close towards the sink. You could wash their own hands prior to they’ve actually finished their particular business! Exactly what an efficient style. Thanks for this amazing content !!
