God is in the DETAILS

Fresh flowers, mirrored boxes and framed art in a powder room, all in white, black and gilded- it's always a delight to unveil. While displaying more accessories such as sketches, handsome hand written poems and artistic plates in front of a chicken-wire-like bookcase is a nod to "everything is in the details"

sorry don't remember the sources.

A lush powder room

Simple details can express a lot about your hostess manners. Things like delicate embroidered towels, scented sprays and soft and lush paper napkins for retouches are a way of making your guests special and welcomed. Of course, a bathroom like this, designed by Miles Redd, would say much more about your sense of style.  I really love the exotic black and white marble top and the sink base with lucite or maybe glass and chrome legs.

Sometimes...

And only sometimes, a powder room doesn't need a mirror. In a powder room like this where there is so may fabulous things to look at; who is going to be using a mirror to be looking at oneself?

Today's powder room

You didn't think I was going to do a series of powder rooms this week and NOT include J Crew's? I mean...look at those stripes.

A daring powder room

Simply beautiful. This powder room some how reminds me of this Kitchen. Right...? I wanted to include the bottom image because it's amazing how much resemblance there is between them.

Powder room of the day

Last week I did a series of post called Kitchen of the day. This week I'll do Powder rooms. Only because it's probably the space where we can be more daring to decorate and this powder has forever been one of my favorites. Having a room in your house with mother of pearl tiles, mirrored vanity and a shell functioning as a sink your guests for sure won't want to leave.

Was it always there?

I've mentioned before how important it is to me for a room to reveal itself slowly in order to keep its allure, and Katie Ridder is an expert executor at this. The more I look at each of these rooms the more I find something new I didn't see the first or second time. I can't really put my finger on what makes these spaces enchanting. It could be the different elements and textures used or perhaps it's the small details that at first are almost unnoticed such as the lighting fixtures in the kitchen ceiling or how Katie creates an element of surprise by combining gracefully a general wall sconce with an exotic fish wallpaper (last image).
