    Designer Christy Mancera envisioned a fairy tale when pulling together the look for a Nevada bathroom shared by two young girls. “We wanted to make this bathroom a sweet dream space for these little girls,” she says. Butterfly wallpaper, a pale pink vanity, scallop motifs and bow-shaped drawer pulls are a few key pieces that pull together the delightful room.

    Bathroom at a Glance
    Who lives here: A family of six
    Location: Henderson, Nevada
    Size: 50 square feet (4.7 square meters)
    Design-build firm: Cera Construction

    Before: The existing bathroom was functional but the plain look was far from inspired.

    After: The bathroom’s 5-by-10-foot footprint remained the same. The room has a door on either end of the vanity. Each door leads to one of the girls’ bedrooms.

    One of the first ideas Mancera presented the girls’ mother with was a light pink double vanity with a scalloped edge along the bottom. This custom touch was a motif she carried through on other elements in the room.

    “This was the first time I’d tried using a scalloped edge along a toekick,” Mancera says. “At first I designed a fuller scallop, but we wound up lifting it up a bit so that if something rolled underneath the sink, my clients would be able to retrieve it.”

    Mancera and the rest of the design-build team used Houzz Pro software during the entire process, from the beginning of the design phase until construction was complete. “It helped us keep all the communication between the clients and all the team members organized and efficient,” Mancera says.

    Mancera searched high and low to find just the right sinks. These have edges with a scalloped look. “They are Victorian-style sinks,” she says. “They really helped to pull in the fairy-tale feel.”

    The faucets and handles have simple silhouettes, which keeps them from distracting from the scalloped motif. The finish is brushed brass.

    “The butterflies and flowers on the wallpaper make these such happy walls,” Mancera says. She plucked a pink hue from the pattern and had the vanity painted to match.

    The mirror is a simple sheet mirror. However, Mancera elevated the look by creating a frame with brass Schluter strips, which are commonly used to edge tile.

    Across from the vanity is a toilet on the left (not shown) and a tub-shower on the right. Mancera presented her clients with a scrumptious pink glazed ceramic wall tile. The subtle variation in pink tones works beautifully with the wallpaper, and the white grout picks up on the white background of the wallpaper. “We used a vertical grid composition to minimize the impact of the pattern,” the designer says.

    The existing tub and window were in fine shape, so Mancera worked them into her design. Other ways she helped stay on budget were by using porcelain countertops instead of natural stone, using luxury vinyl tile flooring instead of hardwood and using a sheet mirror instead of two separate vanity mirrors. The latter move also meant the wall over the vanity didn’t need to be wallpapered.
