• A clean rag to apply the stain
• 80 grit Sanding paper- to rough up the wood prior to staining

Ta da!! The new view when you enter our powder bathroom! My favorite part of the refresh process has been walking down the hall seeing this updated room and knowing that I now have a clean and presentable bathroom. Gone are the days of bare walls and dirty beige tile!

After moving the light fixture we were able to hang the last strip of wallpaper over the sink and mount the mirror. The Smithhonig Shibori Peel & Stick Wallpaper was easy to hang and forgiving for a newbie like myself;) You can read my full review of the wallpaper and hanging process HERE

 It was fun to add all the little details to accent the room. I purchased these stunning embroidered hand towels on Etsy HERE. The shop owner shipped them super quickly and they are even prettier in person! I found the rattan shelf at Goodwill as well as the glass vase and candle. I used leftover wallpaper scraps to "pretty up" and old box of matches and brought in my asian man and dragon bowl for fun accents.

 We decided to spray paint the faucet gold so it worked with the hardware and mirror. I wanted to try spray paint since we were not ready to replace the counter top, sink and faucet. The Asian bust was an estate sale find and I picked up the floral vase at Goodwill today.

 The hardware, thanks to Liberty Hardware, was a huge facelift for the vanity. Wanting a piece with more character I was tempted to replace the vanity BUT the hardware really gave it the look it needed. The Delta Trinsic collection towel bar and tissue holder, from Liberty Hardware, are also a lovely upgrade for the room.

The paint by Velvet Finishes was also a dramatic update for the vanity. Find the paint HERE and more info on how we used it HERE

A last minute addition was wallpapering the bathroom door. It's a pocket door and was stained a brown 1970's oak color. I loved the idea of the door flowing with the room and thankfully we had just enough wallpaper to make it happen.

A few weeks ago I found these fun Giclee signed prints on sale at Home Goods and framed them in some leftover wood Ikea Ribba frames.  The plant is also from Ikea;)

1. A clean wall, with minimal to no texture, is key for adherence when using stick & peel wallpaper.
2. Hanging stick & peel paper is different then regular wallpaper! So I recommend having help if you have not used this style paper before.
3. Stick & Peel is great for easy removal, temporary spaces and regular spaces-the main difference from regular wallpaper is in the hanging process and glue. There is no water, gooey mess or heavy smoothing out to do with stick & peel and it is much more forgiving over time.
4. We found the best way to hang the SmithHönig stick & peel paper was too remove the paper backing completely from each panel versus slowly removing one section at a time. Once the paper backing was completely removed we gently started to adhere the paper starting on the left side. We then smoothed the paper from left to right while allowing it to fall naturally into place top to bottom.
5. When we tried to adhere the paper quickly and all from all angles the more bubbles we incurred. Hence letting the paper stick to one side and naturally fall into place as we smoothed across and down the each panel created less bubbles. 
6. Since there is no water/glue the bubbles are trickier to smooth out. I found it requires pulling back the panel to readjust versus using a flat edge to smooth out the paper like you would with regular wallpaper.
7. SmithHönig peel & stick wallpaper was very forgiving. I haven't used other peel & stick papers to compare it too but this paper was easy to pull off and on. We had to do the normal amount of repositioning to get the pattern to align correctly and this paper was a champ! We did not have issues with it stretching, losing shape, wrinkling or creasing. All things I was worried about having never used stick & peel.
