A Bathroom Update: The Chartreuse Outhouse

We recently updated our powder room.  I am starting to feel like our house is a little too serious so I thought I'd try something a little more playful in the bathroom

There is zero natural light in the bathroom... sorry for all the harsh shadows!  I had an idea to make a faux outhouse door out of some old pallet wood.

I just used nails to hold the whole thing together and then painted the moon and star on it.

I used to be a big Phish fan; the inspiration came from their Farmhouse album cover.

I found a tutorial online to show how to make a pendant light from a turbine roof vent

I really love it, I wish it gave off a little more light though.  My husband was joking about the overall look we were going for in the bathroom... he calls this style "industrial outhouse".  Maybe it's a trend that will catch on!

The whole look is a little bold and took some getting used to, but I really like it now.  I found the cutest hooks at Hobby Lobby; they were only a little over $2 with the 40% off coupon.

I made little loops from ribbon to help the towels stay on the hooks.  It just helps a lot when there are little kids using the towels regularly.  The tutorial for that can be found here.

What do you think?  Too bold?  Too "outhouse"?  Thanks so much for stopping by!

Blessings,

Jamie
