What is a half bathroom?
In this modern time of small half bathrooms which also can be called powder room, is smaller in square footage and often located on the main living core of a home. It typically contains a single vanity and a single toilet which is perfectly accessible for guest and family members. Now I am going to share some ideas about a small half Bathroom or Pretty Powder room from my own experiments.Disclaimer: All reviews are from my personal experience 1. WALL AND FLOOR DESIGN:
When someone opens the door of your powder room to use, the first impression can be the wall and floor color and texture.
- You can decorate your half bath with a theme and patterns such as octopus pattern, jellyfish or ocean blue paint that takes on a serene vibe.
