Powder rooms are small spaces where you can go big on style. These half-baths, most often set off of your main living area, are rooms that give guests a taste of your home, and can welcome them in with luxury, comfort, or a display of modern surprise.While aspects of the half-bath should blend seamlessly with the rest of the home -- perhaps the same flooring or cabinetry as rooms nearby -- this room is also the perfect place to make a big statement of its own.Here are three enticing ideas for creating a powder room with style:1. Go bold on the walls. In such a small space, it's difficult to go overboard with "too much" pattern. Thus the powder room is a great place to use that gorgeous large-print wallpaper you've fallen in love with, but maybe don't want covering your entire living room.
2. Include glamorous lighting. Don't be afraid to use something extravagant, like a chandelier or wall sconce, that will provide upscale ambiance. Just make sure that whatever lighting (or lighting combination) you select allows enough bright light for real life "nose powdering" (or other makeup touches).
3. Don't shy away from modern. If the rest of your home has a modern flair, incorporate this into the half-bath for a fresh and chic look. A stone or brick wall is a great way to bring an unexpected edgy vibe into the powder room that will have all your guests talking.
