PRO8 years agoHey Rachel! You have a myriad of options - a photo wall, a more elaborate dresser, a bigger mirror or even a mask formation to join that mask (just kidding).
You may wish to consider a chic painted decorative wall to greet you when you get home:

What kind of professional should I contact for powder room reno?
Comments (3)The tile person should be able to demo and replace the tile. Most should know how to do drywall sufficiently enough to clean up their own mess. Most wallpaper people also patch walls and paint. There will be other things that need to be done, but between those two people they can lead you in the right direction. Just make sure to get this information before you start with a clear understanding of what those two are willing to do, and have it all planned out ahead of time. They may, for instance, be willing to remove a toilet to wallpaper behind it, but then have a plumber put it back....See MoreWhat sink & cooker colour should i buy, i have an all white kitchen

Comments (3)I would definitely consider an off white colour as this will be a safe, and probably more attractive option with the colours your stated on your bed. However the sheen may not go well with the green and white laminate, if the chandelier go well with the decor of the room then I think going for a sheen finish could easily finish off the room! However if not it could really make your room have two contrasting style schemes. Off white would also look good, but if you like a bit a glam, then a sheen finish is a fantastic option! What other stuff do you have in your room? Is it possible to upload a picture as many 'minds' can make light work lol. We cannot really comment on adding things to brighten it up but I am sure there are designers on Houzz that can help. :)...See Morewhat color should we paint the wall?
Comments (0)Hi, I would like to get some suggestions on the color of the wall. We love the wood panelling. Our bed is wood so would like a lighter wall color. I’m thinking of a cream but I don’t want boring cream. Please help as I’ve had bad experience in paint which looked light on the chart but really dark once painted....See More
PRO8 years agoHi Rachel,
This is quite easy to fix. Firstly I would brighten the space up with a white paint such as Nippon Violet Whispers (warm white), this will give you a good base to work from. Then I would replace your table with one that is larger. This table is too small to be useful and is making your entrance feel small. I recommend using teak and keeping this console table simple in design. On the wall I would place artwork - the bigger the better as this will make a dramatic statement. Then add some lighting (table lamp on console table) and decorative items and voila your entrance will be instantly chic!
I have mocked up two options for you - one is based on blues, the other pinks, so depending on your preference you can go either way.
This is the blue version with hints of tropical
This is the pink version.
I would love to work with you, so if you are interested in my ideas, please contact me via my website www.atelierlane.com

PRO8 years agoHow about considering putting a Waffle Console Table with Handcrafted SARI Square Mirror. On the table top, you could put any kind of decorative pieces.
Or, this handcrafted Hanako Console Table with an art work. This picture show "Against The Wind" by Davide dall'Osso.
