With a tiny room like a powder room, every detail is important. When selecting accessories for my One Room Challenge powder room, I have tried to make every detail special and unique. Can toilet paper be a beautiful design feature? Why not?
A few year's ago, I saw a photo of a beautiful Chinoiserie powder room with black toilet paper and did a post on it. I showed the powder room with white toilet paper and another photo with black and the black looked so much better. Research for that post almost four years ago led me to the discovery of Renova - the world's first luxury toilet paper available in gorgeous colors shown above. Their advertising campaign is the world's sexiest toilet paper - some examples of their sexy and suggestive ads are below. This ad campaign is pretty wild by American standards, but I much prefer it to Charmin's toilet paper ad campaign which you will find here.
Designer toilet paper has become a chic trend all over Europe in swank hotels, restaurants, and bars. It has now hopped the pond and is popping up here in trendy spots and in homes of the rich and famous like Simon Cowell who uses black toilet paper in all of his homes.
Since I am doing a very small powder room where every detail counts, I thought using this toilet paper in my One Room Challenge would be fun. I will be using the black toilet paper on a beautiful nickel faux bamboo toilet paper holder. This paper can be found on their United States website here and on Amazon. Although it is a bit pricey for everyday use, it is perfect for a powder room.

Now go see what the One Room Challenge crowd has been up to besides toilet paper.

I have never heard of colored toilet paper. I love how you found it for us. I also really love your taste in toilet paper holders. I have wanted one that you could just slip the roll off it, like yours.
ReplyDeleteWho knew you could do a whole post on wallpaper :) I agree when you have a small room it is definitely all in the details.....and dang aren't their adds just so sexy!
ReplyDeleteThose ads are hilarious. I did not think TP was sexy until this colored version--Love the black in your bathroom. This is a very fun source, thanks for sharing!

Too funny! The ads gave me my morning giggle. Who knew???
ReplyDeleteHoly crap!!! Sorry..... Love this. Just used Meg Braff's Sampain in my powder room & the white TP really stinks. SO ordering this! Thank you, thank you!!! Those ad made me giggle out loud!
ReplyDeleteThat's toilet paper? I was looking and wondering, I had no idea what it was.
ReplyDeleteTheir ads are working for me. :) Europe always has the great ideas.
ReplyDeleteWhat a statement. Your powder room is going to be so chic. Those ads are hilarious.
ReplyDeleteI have NEVER laughed harder!! LOVE, LOVE the hot guy diving into the TP!! Holy moly!! Just came back from Spain and was obsessing on their black TP. The best. GREAT post!! xoxo, K
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of coloured toilet paper - crazy! And that ad.....gah!
ReplyDeleteToo funny, Beth! I thought it was a wall of ribbon ~ tres chic!
ReplyDeleteHehe! Getting a little risqué and naughty with the graphics on CC today. Love it!
ReplyDeleteWho knew? Of course it would be you Beth. Thanks for leaving no stone unturned. PS I blushed a little at a few of those ads!!

Wow, I learn something new every day! Thanks for the tp tip.
ReplyDeleteWoah, I never would have guessed they made this stuff. I'm in love. The black TP is the perfect choice for your bathroom.
ReplyDeleteAnd HOLY $%^& those adds sure are racy! But I, like you, would take them over those awful Charmin commercials they have here.
Who knew TP could be so sexy! This could be a fun house warming gift (for a close friend). I want some.
ReplyDeleteThey sell that at Wegman's. I remember the blue and pink TP from the '70s. It does look better in the black.
ReplyDeleteOMG! Too FABULOUS!!!
ReplyDeleteI've only seen colored toilet paper once at a friends house in Bulgaria. It was yellow but I didn't notice it until I was about to flush. I thought maybe I was super dehydrated-ha! Nope just yellow toilet paper. The ads are hilarious.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea that I was looking at toilet paper in those first 7n photos! White TP looks terrible in my powder and I didn't know I had options! So interesting and good to know!
ReplyDeleteHa ... who wouldn't love these better than the Charmin Bear Family!! although I did feel a little like i was Reading Fifty Shades of Gray while looking at this post!!! Love the color ... and a truly dramatic touch that I would totally expect from you!! xo
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun post! Artistic images with T.P.! I've never seen anything like this before. The black paper is very chic;)

Renova ads - who knew? Can't wait to see the reveal!
ReplyDeleteomg, this just cracks me up...i first scrolled your post for the photos before reading and I was wondering what in the heck you could be talking about based on these photos. I NEVER would have guessed it would be colored toilet paper. This is the best ever! (And I agree! The black is so fab in your bathroom).
