Mine, but I love it! I was trying to locate a before picture(prior to the wallpaper going up), but was unable to find one. Nonetheless, it was a boring beige space and was screaming out for something delightful… I purchased this Seabrook wallpaper from a local design store. Though I am not a floral person, the colours and the mod vibe that this wallpaper exude really appeal to me.  I pulled out my paint brushes and rollers over this Labor Day weekend and painted the ceiling and that little hallway that leads to the powder room. I matched the green in the wallpaper and I think it brightens up the hallway beautifully.  There is no natural light in that area of the house so a pop was needed. The paint colour is Benjamin Moore Jive Clive #7766. </div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcSGKG84l8IWY6DjhYD3Ygt46DjPMApM8_jrDVRLdzren7dKHdHRArzcsyChoHSEfbMVPWrKChuzUStst4hHX_5sTXKa2jBMA6BsfBSiQpwobVd5CN31YlcttxMsQxhvbhnU90rPVryMIN/s1600-h/IMG_1682%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img alt="IMG_1682" border="0" height="777" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-Tj1deqLczdn87JK5wZShwvd_qiRdy2UeA7KngplQgZWYazcXdPBmqLRGxaCv3VaeBhC7eyEe6nczvPJ7U-IKOpLzGEfEZwjTbWhyxo3fotIXD0B9016-K2rM0kBv3NIUMHfUrCmuMzGY/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="IMG_1682" width="584" /></a></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size: large;">a <strong><u><span style="color: #9bbb59;">before</span></u></strong> pic of the hallway</span></div><div align="center"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWhXaJlcMiItHPpTFtJwmZiM8G_VCUlOtduzb6a0_9k0smxNJuk8FC8_GPAvBykocb7v7kFGk5g_27Jxe6bio9JTLCi5OGtT4o68soPIvH3R0SqrOvSQ33I0xIB6L9cQRp7w_OVsM20TvB/s1600-h/IMG_1683%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img alt="IMG_1683" border="0" height="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFf76CHHRoybwI6QHvRZ1TggweLG4GoCXExB3KWQWIAa7RnxTi8StwxikyhG3FEj650mh9Vo-uqEalQzzXrZxgvMkC0QyWs7m4WfOIfkxpD89oxSrb0CLVqYuIJSjYobwju8YaucGbUW6k/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="IMG_1683" width="600" /></a></div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRfOZcqo4cfUaF1Rl74ELuy2PCO-JWo7B8BobxCYzL749hhzWFO4yIPup1bPm_fa2vdS_w0GbgPU7M7G9rHu-Kb5sI0-fFCQojOcm9XYU88YokaShoxUm0u46mPFC9FshhTNJfatIG0g5S/s1600-h/IMG_1702%25255B19%25255D.jpg"><img alt="IMG_1702" border="0" height="849" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgraCGdtuzQewezrmUM8p3FqaWnnJHyfwcgax1v-SSofJh-BboReV2q_yN8Mye59ZdwAzaA7fe82_JV6vdPgb0rVpF2am7_QB5Sn1ER1szs8LK3-iZg8anDfLZThd_Yk5nAzTnT6fixKcLW/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="IMG_1702" width="572" /></a></div><div align="center">The makeover is still in progress as I would love to accessorize the space starting by replacing this builder’s basic mirror. However, the space is so small that it has proven quite difficult to find a mirror small enough to fit this space. I wanted something with a little bit of a wow factor, but I am still uncertain about what finish the frame should be? All the pieces in the powder room have a nickel  finish, but the light fixture above does have some brown in it. So, would a mirror with a gold frame be too contrasting OR should I stay in the nickel family? What about a mirror with a white frame? </div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAc6KqOyTUeYQuFOgHF9NpOyNx-7d2hc1xkdAh56stYsVi-2uTKFURKufygJC6Xmt_BxommB13ZAMnIJvo37lA5XCSjxBeDbXWYMd5ZA6nnsMXTB3RQok3NmRp91J3Gx-4gMqR50KUW6VZ/s1600-h/IMG_1706%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img alt="IMG_1706" border="0" height="499" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8uYDbPUgasX8sYkYW_uf_ICKRK9WU1Yj_9LBb4QC_3T6g2zJjWLS8hQcpG20aGYXelhtum55Jy2EN_NXzfv6WksFznhrFtWmj72PxgSdzCVCmcvSR9Q4uiDkpZGrDTXEmkchMm3ZZECav/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="IMG_1706" width="664" /></a></div><div align="center">a close up of the light though the pic is leaning…</div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhM5bQGWeEiuPCyvBPGbkvAiJHpM1xhmHwMd37VJxEaL5RvnMqsHDchs3sCoSE4nFmLZ4-f_avNglNo7Eb_XpfxN2LePua3vOS1iwKToCI3d4c1ndISIX7aS1Se43TVDG5vAawfRjSAoUA/s1600-h/IMG_1712%25255B8%25255D.jpg"><img alt="IMG_1712" border="0" height="837" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSDh2yu80NnU8JdYyeGvFDLwMGrYQcBEJRamaCf3tIP83Gho5iL1k9xp686hSWbwDzpVTGBBBjWgj76z52rdwNbV7BHy4fNqoyFSZEtsM0WC4SdngJYg1pMk303R9ofnR7oB2yeM24RCkZ/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="IMG_1712" width="579" /></a></div><div align="center">I never paid much attention to pocket doors until we built this house.
