Kipling by Martyn Lawrence Bullard Design | martynlawrencebullard.com

“One wallpaper that I particularly love for a powder is my own design: a leafy midcentury, tropical extravaganza called ‘Kipling,’ named after the author of my childhood favorite, The Jungle Book. I like to cut around the leaves and bring them up onto the ceiling for added oomph.”

Lunaris by Calico Wallpaper | calicowallpaper.com

“My go-to wallpaper for powder bathrooms is Calico Wallpaper. For this particular project, I wanted to create a setting that felt like an exploration of nature, and this print reminded me of cave diving in the cenotes outside of Tulum amid the tranquil beauty of natural stalagmite and stalactite formations.”

Good Fortune by Ferrick Mason | ferrickmason.com

“Good Fortune by Ferrick Mason is one of my favorite wallpapers. Its original hand-painted pattern by Alex K. Mason comes in a ton of colorways that range from soft and subtle to bold and colorful, so there’s always an option for every style of room or setting. The large intricate scale works perfectly for a smaller-scaled space like this pool bath.”

Acquario by Cole & Son | cole-and-son.com

“Since the powder room is a smaller space, we encourage our clients to have fun there—it’s a moment to try something different and to create something unexpected or surprising for guests. This paper tells you a little something about the people who live in the home: They love animals, so it reflects that fact.”

Microcosmos by Calico Wallpaper | calicowallpaper.com

“I’m incredibly drawn to the soothing, organic motion of this wallpaper. It has an inherent liquid-like quality that really felt right for this powder room, which leads to the pool. The room itself has a lot of soft, filtered light that gives the mural an ethereal element—totally living up to its name. Plus, it’s vinyl, hence, splash-friendly!”

Zebra Palm by F. Schumacher & Co | fschumacher.com

“Schumacher’s Zebra Palm is a wallpaper we love because of its scale and visual impact. It’s crisp and fresh and has a casual vacation vibe. And it’s perfect for a powder room, a space that should be the epitome of style. ”

Fig Leaf by Peter Dunham Textiles | peterdunhamtextiles.com

“It’s a completely emotional response, so it’s hard to explain precisely, but this is such a happy representation of fig leaves–it’s sort of transporting. The scale is generous and the greens are spot on, as if you’re almost engulfed in a garden. And a powder room is a very small space that really needs that wow factor, even if you go plain in the rest of the house.”

Quilt by Kathryn M. Ireland | kathrynireland.com

“Quilt was my first design for textiles [it launched in the designer’s debut collection in 1997]; years later when working on wallpapers, this pattern just seemed like it would work. Adding in gold and silver accents to some of the designs gave it a subtle finish—which is why it works so well in a powder room. ”

Ore Studios, Seattle

Arbre de Matisse Reverse by China Seas | quadrillefabrics.com

“I love that this particular pattern feels dense without being overwhelming. You can use a lot of it, take advantage of its impact, but still have a calm room. The scale of the pattern is interesting close-up, and you only sense the repeat when you’re much farther away. It’s also a lovely wink to design lovers since it has been used in many classic rooms by great decorators.”

Blooms by Rebecca Atwood | rebeccaatwood.com

“This paper comes in a variety of colors and its vibe changes drastically depending on the colorway. In a powder room, it can be the star of the show but can also really enliven a space that may already have walls tiled halfway up with very basic tile—which happens often. Our rule is, have fun with it!”

Miami by Cole & Son | cole-and-son. com

“For powders, I’m drawn to the prints Cole & Son create. They have a wide range of styles that appeal to and complement modern, contemporary design. When I’m designing a powder room, I want bold prints that transcend trends, catch the eye and feature a design that feels unique and special.”

Outside the Box by Porter Teleo | porterteleo.com

“Porter Teleo is a company I go back to often for its distinctive hand-painted papers. Its paper is non-repeating, so you get a special made-for-the space bespoke quality, but the pattern isn’t derivative. While many non-repeating wallpapers have a historical context or origin, like a chinoiserie, ikat or toile, these papers feel fresh and of our time—right now.”

Inked by Jeff Andrews for Astek | astek.com

“I love the organic, graphic quality of this pattern and its mix of matte and metallic finishes. The metallic finishes bounce light around a room, which is even more dramatic in a small space like a powder room. It even looks great on a ceiling!”

Jefferson Tartan by Scot Meacham Wood Home | scotmeachamwoodhome.com

“We often create custom wallcoverings designed to capture the essence of our clients. It’s a fun exercise to turn someone’s passion or heritage into a bespoke pattern. In this case, we gathered a collection of plaids that feel familiar and playful and mixed bespoke hand-painted plaids with more traditional plaids, like this Jefferson Tartan from Scot Meacham Wood Home.”

Umbra by Casa Branca | casabranca.com

“Our Casa Branca faux bois is such a modern take on the print, and we have two patterns and a number of colorways. We design around the things that we can’t find, and this is a faux bois like no one else has done before–it’s different and fun. It’s great for one space in the house where it’s safe to go outside of your comfort zone.”

Lyrebird by Osborne & Little | osborneandlittle.com

“This wallpaper, specifically, has a Moroccan tile quality that picks up on the marble mosaic floor but with more color and intricacy. In general, we love to use bold papers in spaces we only experience for moments at a time rather than live in. It’s easier to be bold when you don’t have to live in the room.”

Palm by Hermès | hermes.com

“When it comes to choosing wallpaper for a powder room, my philosophy is, the wilder the better. Even with the most conservative clients, the powder bath is consistently a space where they want to have fun with color and patterns. Specifically, the Hermès Palm paper was so much fun to use in this lake home. It’s very beach chic!”

Powder room wall decor – how to choose wallpaper for a powder room? |

Beautiful powder room wall decor can turn a small space into a special one. 

Powder rooms – the British cloakroom – may be small but they can still pack a decorative punch. Color and pattern can make these ground floor rooms spaces both family and guests can appreciate.

The room’s other elements pick up shades from the wallpaper, giving the space a cocooning atmosphere.

‘I wanted to have fun – compact spaces are ideal for experimenting with all-out glamor,’ she says.  

Follow Elnaz’s lead by swapping white sanitaryware for alternative shades. Here, it’s a black WC, along with a delicate plaster pink basin. The mirror’s a showstopper from the 1950s with a lit frame. 

7. Go for glamor

This powder room by Vani Sayeed Studios is as visually striking as the rest of the New England home. Intricate pattern and bold colors give it both glamor and a sense of playfulness, but they’re combined with classic furnishings and white sanitaryware as a cozy and grounding counterpoint.

The powder room of this colorful San Jose home designed by Carmit Oron is brought to life by the exuberance of the wallpaper.

'Despite its size, this room was a glorious opportunity to utilise color and pattern with added playfulness,' says Carmit. 

'I began designing it with a rather cool Beverly Hills Hotel wallpaper in mind – one that showcases lush, oversized greenery. I was delighted when my clients gave me the green light on this particular design element. 

'To tone down the grandiose wallpaper, I used horizontal shiplap for wainscoting on the bottom half of the walls, and classic herringbone Carrara tile on the floor.'

9. Create intrigue with a map

If you've seen a little too much blue and want to try a different color, stick with subtle, powdery shades for powder rooms – as the name suggests. 

David Shell, Founder and CEO of a home design and construction publication TradesmenCosts, recommends taking inspiration from pink and gray bathrooms for powder rooms. 

'Gray is a great choice because it pairs up with almost every other shade and is easy to clean. Make sure to use contrasting shade/s on your floor and ceiling.

'Pink has more of a dramatic impact,' he says, and 'will make anyone feel prettier than ever'. 

Marjorie Tornatore , a licensed real estate salesperson for Douglas Elliman, is also betting on gray as a great value-adding choice for powder rooms, especially warm dove gray shades that will 'make spaces appear larger and brighter'.  

10. Bored of pastels? Try a jewel tone

If pastels just aren't your thing, however, there are some beautiful powder room wall decor ideas and bright colors, as shown above, that will work. 

The best color to try is a deep, jewel-toned green: there is just something classic about a deep, heavy green in a smaller bathroom which makes it work.

11. Combine traditional prints with bold paint colors

If you want to give traditional style wallpaper a contemporary twist, picking out the brightest of the accent colors in the design to paint wainscotting with is a characterful powder room wall decor idea. Here, the character is given a further boost with the use of period-style furniture housing a bathroom basin.

12. Pick practical panelling in a family space

The cloakroom idea above is fabulous for families. Knock- and splash-proof, panelling is tough and durable, but also adds texture and character. Which color to paint wainscotting?

Real estate agent Chuck Vander Stelt, founder of website Quadwalls says: 'Light blue is always a winner for kitchens and powder rooms. Light blue is subtle, crisp, and clean. Also important is the versatility of blue. Blue easily matches with many other colors commonly found in powder rooms.'

So, think a light blue combined with chic copper fixtures, for example, for an elegant and classic look. Charles McMillan, founder of Stand With Main Street , agrees: 'In a tiny bathroom, a soft and airy blue provides a sense of tranquility to any area and produces a pleasant, spa-like feeling.'

13. Pick a bold, fun theme

A powder room is a space to have fun with your wall decor, so why not choose a wallpaper that you'd never dream of hanging in a larger space, in bold colors or with a striking design. This one, designed by Studio Indigo , is reflected in a large wall-hung, frameless mirror, and enhanced by gold light fittings.

What is a good color for a small powder room?

A soft light blue is, in our opinion, the best color for a small powder room. It is the color most likely to add to your home's value, it reflects light, looks clean, promotes a spa-like feel and enhances space.  Eric Nerhood of Southern California's Premier Property Buyers helps with the numbers: $5,400 is the extra price buyers will be prepared for for a beautiful blue or periwinkle powder room. 

The colors to avoid in a powder room

Although powder rooms are safer for experimentation than other rooms due to their small size, there are a few colors that won't do your home value any favors. Eric Nerhood recommends avoiding a plain off-white powder room – it can decrease the value of your home by approximately $4,000.

The other extreme – overly dark and dramatic colors – is also to be avoided if you are trying to sell your home, according to Vander Stelt: 

'Avoid yellow, red, purple, and browns in powder rooms.  These colors in these areas are not as appealing to homebuyers. A homebuyer who right away thinks he or she will be doing work to the home will offer the seller less for the home.' 

Marjorie Tornatore also urges homeowners to avoid on-trend bathroom color ideas, 'such as orange, because they tend to go out of style and lose value over a short period of time'.

So, keep a powder room soft and light, but don't settle for white.

The advantages and disadvantages of wallpaper for the toilet should be considered separately, since the conditions of the room are different from the usual ones and have more requirements for the material.

tiles
Pros Cons
Aesthetic appearance Limited material selection
Large variety of colors Short service life (compared to tiles)
Cost effective finish compared to High risk of fungus and mold
Drawing can visually increase the area of ​​the room
Much easier finishing and dismantling work

In the photo on the left, the toilet is finished with tropical-style 3D wallpaper. The room seems more spacious due to unusual lighting.

Pictured is the toilet design in black and white. The decoration is made with wallpaper with a large pattern.

What is the best wallpaper for a toilet?

Liquid wallpaper

The cover will be a good choice for finishing the toilet. The material in its original form is a powder, which is diluted in the required amount of liquid and applied to the wall according to the principle of plaster.

In the conditions of the toilet room, this nuance is convenient because there will be no seams on the walls and those places that are difficult to reach for pasting with roll coatings can be neatly trimmed with liquid wallpaper. The surface fixed with varnish will last longer and will have water-repellent properties.

Wall mural

Spectacular, but not the most practical way of finishing. Wall murals can make the interior much more interesting, while being more spacious due to the optical illusion. Small toilet rooms can be finished with images with a perspective, this technique will visually move the wall away. For example, the wall behind the toilet is decorated with wallpaper with a picture receding into the distance, and the side walls are finished with a plain coating. For greater reliability, you can use varnished photo wallpapers, they are covered with a protective water-repellent layer.

In the photo on the left, a compact toilet room finished with photo wallpapers that expand the space due to the perspective image.

Bamboo

Completely natural version, made from different parts of the bamboo stem. The coating has a limited color palette, from sand to wenge. For a small toilet room, this is not the best option, since visually it will hide a lot of space with its texture. But the material tolerates high humidity well and is easy to care for.

Glass fiber

One of the most durable types of finishing material. Glass fiber has a natural composition, breathes, is maximally resistant to mechanical damage and high humidity. The coating has several standard textured patterns, and can also be made according to an individual sketch. The coating is suitable for painting and has a long service life.

Cork

Like bamboo wallpaper, a natural material. The coating can be uniform and with multi-colored patches. The palette does not differ in variety, but allows you to choose a shade for a room of any area. For the toilet, it is worth using cork wallpaper with a wax coating, it protects against the absorption of odors, prolongs the service life and allows wet cleaning.

Paper

The most impractical type of wallpaper, although it is considered the most budgetary, it has a lot of colors. Paper does not tolerate changes in temperature and humidity, and also has a short service life. For the toilet, it is better to use laminated paper wallpapers, they have a water-repellent layer that is so needed.

Vinyl

Practical and beautiful. Vinyl wallpapers are produced in different variations, by embossing or with a foamed top layer. The latter option is not suitable for finishing the toilet, but silk-screen printing, on the contrary, will be a good choice. The surface can be washed, will not react to temperature changes and high humidity.

Pictured on the left is the toilet interior finished with vinyl wallpaper silkscreened in pink.

In the photo on the left, a toilet with silk-screen printing in golden wallpaper. A tall mirror enhances space with reflective properties.

Ceramic wallpaper

Not the most popular because of its novelty, but very practical material. Combines the qualities of tiles and wallpaper. The ceramic particles present in the composition make the surface durable and waterproof. At the same time, a huge selection of colors and textures is presented.

Interesting design ideas

Tileable

An interesting way to decorate walls. Wallpaper with imitation tiles "win" in price and space in work. The drawing can be under an old cracked tile or with a beautiful and unusual stylized pattern. This method of finishing allows you to quickly finish in an unusual style and just as quickly, if desired, change it.

Brick effect

Wall decoration with wallpaper imitating brick saves space, time and money compared to natural material. With "brick" walls you get a great design in the style of a loft or Provence. The interior will be complemented by stylized plumbing and decor items.

With flowers

Flowers will decorate almost any style and can look completely different. For example, photo wallpapers with large flowers on the back wall can be combined with plain coatings, or a small floral pattern will decorate the room around the entire perimeter.

Geometric patterns

For a small toilet, it is better to use wallpaper with small geometric patterns, such as a small check. They will not be clearly conspicuous and hide space. The proven technique with horizontal and vertical stripes remains relevant, which, depending on the direction, “stretch” or “lengthen” the wall.

Variants of wallpaper combination in the interior of the toilet

By color

The combination of several colors will look advantageous and allow you to correct the perception of space. A darker shade will "pull" the wall. For a small toilet, it is better to use a combination of a light palette. You can also combine plain and multi-colored coatings, with a pattern or 3D image.

Tile combination

Combination with tiles will be convenient in a toilet with a washbasin. It protects the places of the most frequent contact with water and other objects. The combination can be done in different variations, for example, in a horizontal way, tiling the lower half of the toilet room and wallpapering the upper part, or tiling one area and wallpapering the rest of the space.

The photo on the left shows a toilet with different finishes. A combination of wallpaper with a large floral pattern and tiles is used.

Combination with painted walls

Combination with painted walls is not only beautiful, but also comfortable. A wall covered with paint will be more protected from moisture and the appearance of fungus, as well as easy maintenance. Thus, the combination is best done according to the horizontal method, the lower part of the toilet is painted, the upper part is wallpaper. The place of separation of materials can be decorated with wall moldings.

In the photo: The interior of the toilet in a classic style. Finishing combines for the way: wallpaper and painting.

Color options

Black

The bold color is more suitable as a complementary color, for example, for partial wall decoration or as a wallpaper pattern. Finishing with abundant use of black color will look spectacular, but it is likely that such an interior will quickly get bored.

White

White tone is beautiful in a single version and in a company with other colors. The main advantage of white is the visual increase in space, a great way for a small room. Finishing can be combined with other, brighter colors. For example, decorate the wall behind the tank with white wallpaper with a pattern, and the rest with plain structural ones.

Gray

The gray color is multifaceted, it can start from a light shade of white and end with a graphite tone. Finishing with photo wallpaper, a combination with other shades and different textures will look spectacular.

Beige

A calm classic shade, a good choice for both large rooms and compact toilets. Finishing with beige wallpaper with a noticeable texture, a beautiful plain or color pattern will look good. Beige is suitable for classic and modern design.

Green

Pleasant green hue combined with white and beige, the interior will be calm and not defiant. Another option for finishing can be walls pasted over with photo wallpapers with green vegetation or a beautiful landscape.

Wallpapering in a small toilet

In standard city apartments and Khrushchev apartments, toilets have a small area. Using some tricks will help increase the space without spending large sums.

Pictured on the left is a modern toilet. Finishing is done with gray tones using photo wallpaper. Despite the dark shade, the room seems more spacious due to the image on the wall.

Peculiarities of wallpapering

Before proceeding directly with wallpapering, it is necessary to prepare the room for this, namely, to complete all repair work, hide pipes and, preferably, remove plumbing fixtures, including a sink, bidet and toilet, for the duration of wallpapering, as it will make it difficult process.

Photo gallery

Decorating a toilet with wallpaper is not the most common way. However, that doesn't mean it can't be practical. Properly selected material will last for many years and will please the eye. And if you want to change the situation, there will be no problems, since dismantling the wallpaper is much easier than tiles. Wallpapers are presented in a huge selection, which allows you to repair in any style.

Wallpaper in the toilet: photos of the interior, views, pasting

Wall cladding in sanitary facilities in houses and apartments is usually made with ceramic tiles. But given that such material and work cost a large sum, it is time to radically change the design decisions. For many, the way out was the wallpaper in the toilet, which simplifies the finishing work. The use of rolled canvases allows you to move away from this ingrained stereotype. Thanks to the huge range, the material is much easier to match to specific requirements than ceramic tiles.

Wall papering in the toilet has both positive and negative aspects.

Benefits include:

Negative aspects include factors such as fragility. But if you choose the right wallpaper for the toilet and the adhesive composition for them, then you can forget about the next repair for a long time.

Attention! If the butt joints on the wall begin to diverge, then this indicates a violation of the installation technology. Therefore, before starting work, you should carefully study the instructions that come with the rolls and follow all the recommendations.

Which wallpaper is better

You can imagine how a toilet with different wallpapers will look if you know the characteristics of each type of finishing material. A mandatory requirement for finishing is resistance to difficult conditions, including high humidity. Such canvases can be used not only in the toilet, but also in the bathroom. When choosing wallpaper for a bathroom, it is advisable to consider each type.

Toilet wall murals

Photo wallpapers are canvases of different sizes, which display the most realistic scenes. The drawings and photographs applied to the base are distinguished by the saturation of colors and clear contours. In small toilet rooms, you should select drawings and photos that expand the space. It can be abstractions of geometric shapes, nature in the form of a green lawn or snow-capped mountains. The "underwater world" plots with sharks, dolphins and other representatives of the deep sea, geographical maps or an imitation of a home shelf library with books are popular.

Washable wallpapers

Traditionally, inexpensive and practical washable wallpapers are used to decorate sanitary facilities. The top layer of such canvases consists of a waterproof film that protects the pattern. The washable surface is easy to care for. Simply wipe with a damp cloth to remove dust, dirt and mildew. The base is paper, so the canvases are well glued to a flat surface. The range is extensive, so everyone will find the best option for themselves, both in color and design.

Liquid wallpaper

Liquid wallpaper is a dry powder of various shades containing fillers. The composition is prepared by combining the dry component with water. The main thing is to follow the proportions indicated on the package. The finishing mixture is applied to the wall with a conventional plaster spatula. After drying, the coating is no different from roll analogues. Lacquer is used to create a protective moisture-resistant layer. This wall cladding lasts a very long time. It is characterized by good sound insulation, moisture resistance, elasticity, low price compared to tiles.

Bamboo

This wall cladding is environmentally friendly and has high aesthetic values. This is a "breathable" base, therefore, to reduce the vapor permeability, it is necessary to apply any paintwork material to the surface. Another advantage of bamboo sheets is the use without prior preparation of the work surface. This way you can save time and money.

Glass fiber wallpaper

Glass fiber wallpaper suitable for bathrooms. Decorative material is durable, resistant to moisture, aggressive chemicals and high temperatures. White canvases with different textures, intended for painting, go on sale. Pasted walls can be decorated in any color scheme or several colors can be combined at once.

Cork

An interesting way to finish the walls of the toilet room is cork wallpaper. The base (substrate) consists of paper and non-woven fabric, on which crushed cork oak bark is applied. Products are produced without a substrate, but they are characterized by increased fragility.

Consumers are offered 2 types of cork lining:

  1. Self-adhesive.
  2. Impregnated with wax or special varnish.

Due to its soft texture, this coating is not very suitable for walls, as indentations remain on the surface from indentations. Another disadvantage is the absorption of odors. This drawback can be avoided by creating good ventilation in the room, and using refreshing agents.

Paper

Paper rolls are an inexpensive design option. Laminated paper-based wallpapers with a top water-repellent layer are suitable for the toilet.

Vinyl

Leading positions are occupied by rolled vinyl wallpapers on paper, non-woven or fabric basis. The three-dimensional effect on vinyl canvases is achieved by hot stamping. Analogues - non-woven wallpaper - are distinguished by a greater thickness of the canvas. This type of cloth belongs to the category of detergents. The top protective layer consists of smooth or foamed polyvinyl chloride.

Ceramic wallpaper

Ceramic wallpaper looks good in the toilet. Decorative cladding has practicality, a harmonious combination of the properties of ceramic tiles and wallpaper is observed here. Particles of ceramics contained in the composition of the cladding increase the strength and moisture resistance of the coating. The range of ceramic wallpapers includes a huge selection of colors and textures.

With synthetic backing

An interesting decorative finish is obtained by using synthetic backed textiles. Thin foam rubber is used as a substrate. This structure has good heat and sound insulation. The surface is resistant to direct sunlight. The thickness of the canvas with a synthetic base is up to 5 mm, which makes it difficult to make the joints invisible.

Choice of colors

Wallpaper can be combined in an original way with the help of color. By combining several shades, you can achieve a better perception of space.

Each color gives its own result:

Choice of wallpaper for a small toilet

In most cases, the plumbing unit in apartments has a small area. To visually change the parameters of the room, different methods are used. You need to be able to choose the right wallpaper by color and combine.

Features of wallpapering

Compared to other rooms in the apartment, the toilet has the smallest area. Limited space makes it difficult to work with canvases.

In order not to have to start all over again, you should know about the peculiarities of wallpapering:

Recommendation! It is easy to glue wallpaper in the toilet, where there is no toilet bowl, bidet, sink. If there is such an opportunity, then it is better to remove the plumbing so that nothing interferes.

Interesting design ideas

Wall cladding can be done with tile-look canvases. The advantage of this choice is the design in the usual traditions. The area of ​​the room is completely preserved. If the dimensions of the toilet allow, then the interior can be supplemented with furniture - shelves, wall cabinets, and a pencil case. Decor elements look good: vases, artificial flowers, geometric shapes, a round or rectangular mirror in a frame. You can achieve harmony in the environment by combining different materials.

Ways of combining in the interior

The most common design of the toilet is the combination method, where ceramic tiles are combined with roll material. It is not easy to make such a finish with your own hands. Therefore, the help of specialists is required. A similar combination can be used in a toilet combined with a bath. The tile is laid in the area where the sink is located. The main purpose is to protect the wall from direct contact with water.

Location:

Combination - wall painting and vinyl sheets - performed in several positions.
