25 Stunning Powder Room Makeovers

Last Updated on March 5, 2022

Powder room design can be a challenge, but these half bath makeovers are stunning! Make the most of your space with these amazing powder room ideas for a stylish makeover.

If you have been around a while, you know that we recently gave our downstairs powder room a total makeover. I loved the original makeover we did a few years ago in that half bath, but I was so ready to freshen it up and try out some new design elements!

There are so many amazing powder room ideas out there, so I pulled together a list of my favorites. These stunning spaces vary from bright and bold, to moody and dramatic, to open and airy, but the one thing they all have in common is an awesome design that is full of style. Powder rooms are the perfect spot to try things that scare you a little–think bold wallpaper or a painted ceiling. I took a chance and painted a mural in our powder room and I love it SO MUCH. Don't ever think you have to sacrifice style because your space is small. These powder rooms prove any space can be stunning no matter the size!
