    remodel or re decorate?

    it's a tight space, I would remove the plant stand.

    The vanity seems too bulky. If you did a pedestal sink you might have room for a small storage cabinet against the inner wall (to the right as you enter) for toilet paper, etc. I agree with Lyn the plant stand doesn't add anything, if you want "greenery" maybe a small artificial plant in a nice planter on the floor in that corner.

    Thank you!! Yes, I am almost positive we are going to do a pedestal sink because everything else seems bulky. thinking to get rid if stand, add wainscoting and wallaper

    I presume that moving plumbing is larger than the scope of this project. It would be nice if you could put the toilet to the right of the sink where the plant table is (rotate it 90 degrees to the left). Then there would be no dead corner space, and the current sink, with all of its storage, would actually feel like the accurate size for the space. I'd get a quote and see what is involved in that.


    If this is beyond your scope of work, I agree that a pedestal stink would look less cramped. But it would also need to be a more shallow depth than your current vanity to really make an impact. How deep is your current vanity? What do you store inside it and would you miss having storage in this room? You could have a basket on the floor for toilet paper in the current plant stand location.


    Work out function and spacing, then think about paper and decor.

    I'd run the vanity to the wall.

    Depending on what you want to do in there, it would be fun to paint it with a little bit more of a bright color. I also love the wallpaper idea. I also think you could change the art on the wall behind the toilet to be more encompassing of the wall and in a landscape size that draws your eye to that whole wall.

    I like your bathroom.. What is your budget? If you are looking for a new vanity, I love BeverlyFlAD has a great solution.


    Paint or paper could do wonders...

    Will always advise if you are going to go out on a decorating limb the powder room is the place to do it. Being a small space it's a place where you can get wild with color, textures and patterns.

    Some wallpaper, or a tiled wall, should help liven up the space. Here are some powder rooms we have done for clients, which might help you more.
