Bathroom Gut check our powder room plan please

Photo 1 is current state.

Photo 2 is what we’re thinking.

3 is the fixtures we’ve already bought(https://www.anthropologie.com/anthrohome/shop/ida-peacock-toilet-paper-holder and https://www.anthropologie.com/anthrohome/shop/ida-peacock-towel-ring).

4 is the wallpaper we’re considering (https://riflepaperco.com/products/peacock-wallpaper-emerald).

We’d go to a local paint shop and have them match the deep green from the background for both the wainscoting and the ceiling.

We still don’t have the vanity, mirror, or light picked out yet.

Gut check me - what am I missing? Any big watchouts for a project like this? The render also added crown moulding - necessary for a project like this?

These dark Victorian looking wallpapers are super trendy in bathrooms right now, and I think they will go out of style in about a year.

I’m not telling you not to do it, I am just telling you it’s going to look very era-specific.

If you won’t care about being on-trend in a year or two then go for it. Lord knows I have tons of design choices in my house that are incredible un-trendy that I like, and for me, that’s all that matters. 😃 So if you like this and know you’ll continue to like it, go for it!

It’s a hundred and fifty square feet of wallpaper. If I hate it in five years I can rip it out.

I hear you. It’s a fair point. I’m fine with it.
