Alicia's Pretty Powder Room: nostalgic and nautical

I was asked by a fellow blogger and neighbor here in Newport Beach to help with a face lift on a dated little powder room....

Of course I said Yes!

 Alicia and her family live in a wonderful neighborhood near the beach called 

"The Port Streets" by locals.  

Most of the homes were built in the 70's 

And most have been remodeled at least once or even twice at this point.  

 Alicia has fabulous personal style and her home is a mix of fun beach chic with a bit of the contemporary.  

She has young children so keeping things simple is a priority. 

 Don't you love the pelican print!

 This bathroom gets used quite a bit by the kids as well as guests and it sits right off of the living room and near the kitchen.  

We wanted to tie the colors together that Alicia has used throughout the main floor.  We also wanted something with some pop.

 Somewhere is a photo I took of the original bathroom...but I can't find it.  

Oh well, you get the idea....

 The room is ready for its makeover. 

Below is my great friend Barbara.  

Barbara has been hanging wall papers for over 30 years!  

Sorry for this terrible shot Barbara.

 If you think hanging wall paper is easy...try it.  

Especially with a giant print like this one.  

Getting the repeat and seams to blend flawlessly is a real art.  

Barbara has hung tons of wallpaper for me and she does it so beautifully.  I will share a few of those projects on another post.

 I think this room took Barbara about 3 hours, 

with about an hour to set up and prepare her paper.

 This print called Na Pali is from Thibaut.  

It happens to be one of their most popular papers.  

The cost is about $70 dollars per roll and this room took 8 rolls.

 Almost all of Thibaut's papers have matching fabric and usually come in 8 to 10 different color-ways. 

We are using the matching fabric on some pillows
and slip covers in the  breakfast room.

Here is a link to view some of their beautiful papers and fabrics

 One of the key elements in this room is the vanity which Alicia picked out from a company called J Tribble.  They manufacture these without the stone tops but Alicia chose a travertine just to make the upkeep easier.  It looks wonderful!

 The sconces are from Circa Lighting.  

This is called Ava.  I love the faceted glass

 The mirror came from Williams Sonoma Home and hangs from a knob and a leather strap...very fun.  

We actually got this on sale!

Here you can see how nice the travertine looks.  

Her faucet is from Brizo

This was a great collaborative project, which are always the best.  

Oh and Alicia has a wonderful line of jewelry which you can view here

at Good Witch Studio

Thanks Alicia
&
Have a great weekend
