“For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him”
John 3:17
In a sea of white, shiplap, and farmhouse decor, I guess you could say I am a little different…ok, maybe a lot different! This girl right here loves color, and if you’ve been around Everyday Living for very long, you know this about me! Now, don’t get me wrong, I love that look as much as anyone! But in staying true to my style, I do keep it colorful! Each year, I look forward to learning what Pantone declares as the color of the year, and for 2017, it just so happens to be greenery…the shades of my powder room! I realized I had only shared a couple of photos in the past of “my little jewel box”, so I decided it was time to give you, my sweet readers a look!
Most powder rooms are small…it is the perfect space for thinking outside the box, maybe add a little drama to create a jewel box effect!
I love the antique Art Deco chair that I found several years ago and what’s not to love about a little leopard in a room!
An English corner shelf was a perfect find!
I have always chosen gold accents in our home and only wear gold jewelry (it seems to work best with my skin tone)!
A small brass tray table fills a corner.
A little bunny, a bird nest, and a Rose Chintz plate add touches of spring!
The orchid is living happily in this corner!
I love the detail of the chair!
Peacocks have such beautiful color!
The Details:
Walls – Hand-painted by an artist
Silk window treatments -custom made
Chandelier – Schonbek
Vanity – Ambella Home
Vintage tole towel stand

Love it, Pam. You sure had that little jewel tucked away, didn’t you?! And that chair……!
Thanks so much, Rita. Have a wonderful weekend!
I love it! I also love color and while all the whites and creams galore are very pretty, this girl needs color and a little animal print tucked in here and there!? I love your “jewel box”! A beautiful room I bet guests love too!
Rebekah, thanks so much for your sweet comments. It seems we have much in common. Have a wonderful weekend!
Wow, this is gorgeous Pam! Do you ever lose guests for a while? I would go in there and just sit on the leopard chair and gaze about feeling like a princess!
Jenna
Jenna, you are too sweet…enjoy the wonderful weather at the beach!
Now this is what I call a jewel box! I LOVE the green wallpaper and the gold faucet and mirror is wonderful. I couldn’t get a good look at the vintage towel stand but would have liked to see it also. And that chair? Drop dead gorgeous. Would feel like I shouldn’t use this beautiful space other than to look at it.
Oh, and there are silk curtains re in the lady’s room!!!!!!
Yes, they are silk!
Alice, thank you so much for your encouraging words! I decorated this powder room in 2003 and haven’t changed one thing…it might be time! Happy Weekend!
This is really gorgeous! Belongs in a decorating magazine! Pam, you have such a knack!
Jeanie, you are so kind!
Pam, I love your style! As you know, I am a color girl, too! I wouldn’t be happy without it! Your powder bath is absolutely stunning! I agree that it belongs in a decorating magazine. You are such a talented decorator. I really enjoyed this post this morning! Have a beautiful day, sweet friend!!!
Shannon, you are so kind and encouraging! Wishing you a wonderful weekend!
Pam your powder room is very pretty . Love the green . Hugs and blessings , Cindy
Thanks so much, Cindy!
How did I miss this before? This is a room I could live in, small or large, bathroom or not! The lush window treatments are stunning. The painted mural feels like an island retreat. I do think of you when I see leopard print! Love the unique chair and all the details of this bathroom. Thanks for sharing your “Pantone” green room. 🙂
Aw Kim, you are always so sweet and encouraging. This powder room was done in 2003 and I haven’t changed anything, it might be time!
Please. Don’t change a thing!
Pam, where you educated in interior design? You must be, because that room is stunning.
Ginene
Ginene, thanks so much. I am self-taught in design and had my own company until I retired! Have a wonderful weekend!
What a stunningly lovely room! I love the colors, the details and the way things “flow”. Very nice. 🙂
Joy, you are so kind…thanks so much! Blessings~
Beautiful, just beautiful!
Thanks so much, Julia…wishing you a wonderful weekend!
Your style is so beautifully accented by the colors you choose. So many people are intimidated by color, and they don’t know what they are missing.
Thanks so much, Linda. I always appreciate your encouraging comments!
It is a jewel box, indeed. Beautiful!
Thanks so much, Susan! Have a joy-filled weekend!
Thank you! Thank you! For COLOR!!! I am a color girl too, and get so bored with all of the white! Your jewel box is just beautiful! Thank you for the inspiration ! Kelli
Kelli, I knew I wasn’t the only color-loving girl! Thanks so much!
You are amazing. A deep well of creativity?
How sweet, thanks so much! Have a wonderful weekend!
Love, love, love, love, love!!! I am so tired of white rooms and the word “shiplap”. Your jewel box is absolute perfection.
Thanks so much, Roxanne. There are still those of us who love color!
Pam, I live in Colorado and my style is more Colorado rustic, but no matter what style of decor a person cherishes…..if it is done well, I appreciate it. You obviously have a great eye and a smart decorating sense….KUDOS for a beautiful bathroom! Blessings, Patty from Colorado
Patty, thanks for your sweet words. I love Colorado and rustic as well! Wishing you a wonderful weekend!
Pam, this is such a gorgeous room! It truly is a jewel box! You know that I absolutely love your style and use of color! It’s beautiful!
Thanks so much, Shenita! Your comments are always encouraging! Have a wonderful weekend!
This surely is a Jewel Box room!! I so love color myself and elegance. Classic Beauty! Thanks for sharing this with us.
Nancy, thanks so much! I have certainly enjoyed my little jewel box! Have a wonderful weekend!
I have always loved the idea of making the powder room an elegant jewel box and you certainly did. It looks so classy and one of a kind. It is a lovely room.
Thanks so much, Debra…have a fabulous weekend!
I am with you! Although I like the all white, sparsely decorated look, I am all about color and embellishment. You have captured both in your stunning powder room! I live in an 1870 Victorian home so your room would fit perfectly there.
Ann Marie, thanks so much. There are a few of us who love color! Blessings~
Sencillamente espectacular!! querida Pam.
Es un conjunto de colores muy agradables que hacen un todo maravilloso y elegante. Te felicito, me encanta…Cada pieza es una joya.
Dolores
Simply spectacular!! Dear Pam.
It is a set of very nice colors that make everything wonderful and elegant. Congratulations, I love … Each piece is a jewel.
Dolores
Dolores, muchas gracias por tus dulces y amables palabras! Deseándole un domingo maravilloso mi amigo! Abrazos, Pam
In love with your beautiful jewel box!!! Love everything about it from the color to those gorgeous drapes to that wonderful wall treatment. I love color too and your decor is so beautiful and has so many exquisite details!! Thanks for sharing your little jewel box. Great things come in small packages!
Shirley, thanks so much sweet friend!
A jewel box it is! And might I add that your jewel box is full of gorgeous jewels from the chandelier to the silk drapes to the chair to the smallest of appointments. Truly exquisite! Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks so much God your kind words. Wishing you a wonder-filled week!
Hi Pam! What an interesting and unique little powder room! I love it! Thanks for sharing at Dishing It & Digging It!
Thank you Lori for the opportunity to share!
Hello from Kansasland. Glad you stopped by the other day. LOVE your special powder room. GORGEOUS!!!
Blessings,

Thank you, Deanna! Have a wonderful Tuesday!
Oh my word, this is beyond amazing. I love it all. Absolutely stunning.
Marty, thanks so much! I appreciate your visit!
Pam, Your powder room is beautiful. Lovely embellishments and artfully decorated. Love your mirror, gorgeous drapes, brass tray with charming seasonal items and the corner shelf.
Funny, I had a vintage shelf full of collectibles in my powder room and one night in the dark a guest bumped into the shelf and several things were broken so sadly I took it down. You should turn on lights! LOL!
Thanks so much, Bonnie! Stay safe today when such bad weather is predicted!
Beautiful room. The hand painted walls are stunning, but my favorite is the chair!
Kim, thanks so much. Have a beautiful Thursday!
I am so envious of this fabulous room. I fell in love with it all, the chair, the wonderful painted wall, chandelier, and that vanity.. and mirror, and lamps…wow, wow, what a great job. Jewel Box in all of it’s glory..Love,love,love!
Bonnie, thank you for your sweet words. Wishing you a beautiful Thursday!
I am just like you Pam, I love color. I think I would go a little insane in a sea of white for too long…I enjoy it on a vacation now and then. This bath is lovely! I think that chair is just amazing and to have such a beautiful window treatment in your powder room must make your guests feel like they are on vacation! Thank you for posting this in TADA! Thursdays
Debbie, thanks so much! I love the opportunity to link up with TADA!
This looks like a fancy bathroom in a very expensive hotel, it’s beauiful!
Thank you, Sandra!
I absolutely love this room!! I love color and so enjoy the few blogs that use a lot of color and yours is one I look forward to seeing. This room is gorgeous and oh, that chair! Love it, and love the animal print. Love your dining room also.
Bonnie, thank you for your sweet comments. There isn’t much color out there in blog land! Have a great week ahead!
What an elegant and beautiful powder room Pam! The artwork on the wall is amazing. Pretties everywhere you look. So perfect for the color of the year! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
Jann
Thanks Jann, I have always loved the color!
Wow Pam that is truly a stunner! I saw you said earlier it was completed in 2003- this is truly a testament to good design! I would have to visit this room each time if I was a guest at your home! Looks like something out of one of the designer’s books!
Liz, thanks for your extremely kind comments. I had thoughts of changing the powder room, but I have not tired of it, so I may leave it as is. Wishing you a wonderful Tuesday!
OMGoodness, my heart just skipped a beat! This room is exquisite! I am SO tired of white everything, I am a girl who loves my colors. The wall treatment is gorgeous! I wish I knew someone who could do this, I thought it was wallpaper and there is no way my hubby will do wallpaper again. The candle holders on the sink are beautiful, EVERYTHING is beautiful. I adore the chair!!!
Pinky, your comments are so sweet! I know wallpaper is once again the rage, been there, done that and I refuse to do it again. Happy Wednesday
That room is so beautiful!!! I love the hand painted walls ,just gorgeous! Too beautiful to change!! I also, love the colors. I have always loved peacocks and think they are beautiful. Love it, Pam!!!
Thank you so much. Have a wonderful weekend!
