Sparrow | Guest Bathroom


............

My Mom is re-designing her Guest Bathrooms,
so here was my idea for the main Guest Bath, designed
around a favorite of mine, the Daydream (Sparrow) Wallpaper {18}.

I hope to put the Daydream Wallpaper {18} in our hallway
or in our laundry room, I think it would liven it up a lot!



PS.  Using these wall sconces {found here}
might be a perfect match for this space!

LET'S TALK TILE
I have given you lots of tile choices that match this bathroom design,
{2, 11, 14, 15, 16, 17}.  
The blue & marbled subway tile {2 & 11} I threw in just to mix it
up, since it matched the design and I love it!  

Let's focus on the bottom four tiles: 
{14 & 15}
These are my choices for the shower, my Mom wants a white
tub and little to no grout, so I suggested slabs of marble or marble-look
for the walls {15}.  I love awl coves!!  The Vine Mosaic {14},
which is rather expensive, would be a nice touch to the back of a small awl cove,
this idea would let you use a gorgeous mosaic, but keep the cost down!

{16 & 17}
These are my choices for the flooring - {16} being the main floor tile
and {17} being a gorgeous accent running about 2"-3" from the edge of the tile.

Those are my ideas, but feel free to stay in the palette and mix and match!

LET'S TALK PAINT
My idea for this room!

One wall with the Daydream Wallpaper {18}...

...then either one wall in "Sapphire Mist," and two in "Bright White
OR
...all three Walls in two Tone with "Sapphire Mist" on top,
 and "Bright White" below, giving it a feeling of moulding.

Using solid blue for all walls just blah-ed
things out too much, and white seems way too clean,
so those were my solutions.

A WORD ABOUT MARBLE
Just to mention it, if you pick a marble counter-top or wall slabs,
be sure to have it sealed and periodically seal it!  It stains,
so it can be very frustrating to use. Not to mention it's very pricy!
If you don't think marble's for you, get a marble look or go with
another material all-together, but stick to the palette.


Here's a smaller version, so you can see the overall-look better:


Enjoy!
