It's a pretty small room, but the joke may end up being on me, since the stencil will have to work around a doorway, window, toilet, pedastal sink, light fixture, mirror, and switches/outlets. hmmm...rethinking...
Here's my hall bath inspiration photo again.

Our bath will be painted a base coat of a taupe-y gray. The color swatch I've been carrying around is from Wal-Mart. Dutch Boy/Better Homes in the color Creamy Pebbles. No photo. I still have a few weeks to decide. Anyone know the perfect taupey-gray color?
But then what? Do I buy a stencil, make one? What pattern? Geometric? Intricate?
Here are some of the photos floating around my desktop:
(from centsational girl, jones design company, Graciela Rutkowski Interiors, houseandhome.com, and the rest are from pinterest)
But I have since stumbled upon the idea of DRAWING my pattern on the wall. A quick search on the interweb shows that several people have had great success using paint pens or Sharpies to add a pattern to their walls without all the hastle of paint, brushes, cleanup, messy patterns, etc..
No mess, count me in!
