A half bath or powder room may be the place to indulge your decorative fantasies..
This can be especially true in a busy household with young children.
Consider who will be using your half bath or powder room before you begin. If it is not primarily for family overflow, and will be utilized mostly by guests, a powder room can be the place to indulge a few decorative whims until your children are older.
The half bath or powder room is a good place to put a little extra luxury and special or fancy decor.
