Seven Years in the Waiting

Before shot.
The empty nesters lost their Braes Heights ( Houston ) area home during the unprecedented flooding brought by Hurricane Harvey in 2017. Over a year, they built a new home on the same site. Once completed, decorating was put on the back burner, and they moved in and set about trying to get back to “life as usual.”

But the homeowner always wanted wallpaper in at least the powder room, and so had the builder leave the walls untextured . Today, her dream was achieved!

Coordinates beautifully with the marble vanity countertop , as well as the brushed silver faucet and handles .

The wallpaper pattern has a modern feel and really brightens and freshens up the powder room .

It features a silver metallic finish on a textured / embossed vinyl surface .

More on how the arched window top was treated in a separate post.

The wallpaper is by Thibaut , one of my favorite brands . It’s on a non-woven substrate , and can be hung by pasting the paper (which I prefer, especially in chopped up rooms like this) or by the paste the wall method. With 20% polyester content, it’s more resistant to water splashes and stains than traditional papers . And it’s designed to strip off the wall easily and without damage to the wall when you redecorate .
This wallpaper was purchased below retail through Dorota at the Sherwin-Williams in the Rice Village ( Houston ).  She has 25+ years selling wallpaper and 300+ selection books – and she knows what’s in every one of them!  So she can easily and quickly help you find your perfect pattern.  Hours fluctuate, so call to make an appointment, and let her know what you’re searching for.  (713) 529-6515
