28 Inspiring Ways to Use Wallpaper in Your Bathroom
Up your bathroom's style quotient with the charm of wallpaper.
Annie Schlechter
Your bathroom may be the smallest room in the house, but with the right wallpaper it can easily be the room that packs the most personality. Whether you choose a romantic floral, a modern geometric, or a playful toile, wallpaper is a great way to give your bathroom a stylish look full of color and pattern. From coastal to farmhouse modern, and all styles in between, the wallpaper possibilities are there to help you set the scene. Plus, because of its small square footage, you can easily transform your bathroom without much investment or, better yet, go for a guilt-free splurge on that favorite wallpaper pattern you've been coveting. In a powder room, you'll only need a roll or two. Still have a fear of commitment? A whole new world of peel-and-stick removable wallpapers means you can go ahead and take the risk.
The shopping is easy too. You no longer have to order wallpaper through a designer or flip through countless wallpaper books searching for the just right pattern. There are many great online sources such as wallpapersdirect.com, wayfair.com, and serenaandlily.com that offer pretty wallpapers at all price points. And don't overlook big box home improvement retailers such as Lowe's or Home Depot—they also sell wallpaper. A bathroom is also a manageable space to try out a weekend DIY wallcovering project such as decoupage or a stencil.
With your new wallpaper in hand, complete your bathroom's fresh look with these ideas for a stylish new bathroom vanity, dreamy clawfoot tub, and pretty and functional bathroom lighting ideas.

Brightly Blooming Powder Room Wallpaper
Choose a wallpaper boasting a blooming display of specimen-style botanicals for a garden-fresh bathroom. Crisp leafy greens paired with petite colorful blooms pop against a white background, making for a bright and welcoming space for your guests. Here, in her family's Michigan retreat, designer Chenault James converted a vintage cabinet into a cheery vanity and wrapped the room in a colorful botanical wallpaper.

Botanical Peel-and-Stick Bathroom Wallpaper
Peel-and-stick wallpaper delivers all the style without the commitment—and the price tag. For an even more economical choice, consider adding a paint "wainscot" (the trim can double as a peg rail!) to cut the amount of wallpaper needed. In this farmhouse modern bathroom, homeowner Jenni Yolo (@ispydiy) spent just $40 for her tree-covered toile wallpaper (Tree Toile; chasingpaper.com), which she paired with a grounding deep blue base (Blue Metal by Behr).

Powder Room Wallpaper with a Punch
A powder room is the perfect place to make a statement with wallpaper. The small space means less walls to cover (read: less wallpaper needed) and, in close quarters, a bold pattern actually has more impact, instantly turning a plain box into a charming jewel box.

Sunny Pastoral Toile Bathroom Wallpaper
Singer-songwriter Holly Williams created a dreamy and relaxing soaking spot in this Kentucky farmhouse by wrapping a guest bathroom in a pretty golden yellow-and-white wallpaper (Chateau du Loir; thibaut.com ). Painting the room's original wood floor, window trim, and beadboard ceiling all a crisp white (Cloud White by Benjamin Moore) ensures the wallpaper remains the center of attention.

Sophisticated Blue-on-Blue Bathroom Wallpaper
From flowers to fronds, nature provides all the best patterns. And while they look beautiful in their natural color palette, when presented in an unexpected colorway, the organic shapes gain an artistic quality. In this sophisticated tone-on-tone blue wallpaper, the wispy trees take on the graphic look of a reversed silhouette.

Toile Bathroom Wallpaper with a Twist
Pictorial "toiles," shortened from the full name "toile de Jouy" which translates as cloth from the French town of Jouy-en-Josas, are often synonymous with their picturesque pastoral scenes. While traditional in nature, today's playful takes on the historic pattern—such as this water tower- and truck-boasting "Country Living Toile" wallpaper by Spoonflower—are far from fussy. In her farmhouse bathroom, singer-songwriter Holly Williams turned up the pattern play by pairing the petite toile wallpaper with a bold black-and-white tile. The key to successfully pairing patterns is to choose two different scales so they complement instead of compete.

Subtle Tone-on-Tone Bathroom Wallpaper
For a subtle hint of pattern, choose a neutral tone-on-tone wallpaper design. Keep remaining surfaces minimal and white to keep the look serene, or to add some pop, choose a color accent, as designer Emily Henderson did here with bold cobalt blue wainscoting.

Romantic Rose-Covered Bathroom Wallpaper
Lush cabbage roses are always in season when it comes to creating a pretty vintage-inspired bathroom.

DIY Bathroom Wallpaper Made of Book Pages
Create your own wallpaper with pages from your favorite books. Choose from specimen-style catalog drawings of botanicals and animals, pages of poetry for high-brow bathroom reading, or even nostalgic illustrations from your favorite children's books. Crack open the spine of the book to easily remove the pages, then use wallpaper glue to apply the pages to the wall.
When designing your wall, pick pages that are all the same size and line them up in neat and tidy rows for a uniformed, modern look.
