Grey Bathroom Rental - Help!

11 years ago

I'm moving into a very modern building with an all grey tile bathroom. I have a variety of colored towels (white, ocean blue and butter yellow), but not sure how to make this area brighter and lighter. Would love any suggestions!!! I feel like I'm limited considering it's Tile and a rental. Thank you for your help!

Another idea, take a large piece of foam core or solid insulation and wall paper it hang that on the wall across from the mirror. you can put a mirror or pic on that. the wall paper will reflect back and the whole room is brighter.

I knew someone who always changed out her light fixtures in her rentals, just pack theirs away in the linen closet. you can have a chandelier, or bring in gold

In addition to your towels, the right shower curtain could add some cheer to the space! Crate & Barrel has some bright, modern curtains...and if you're on more of a budget, you can find a very nice variety of curtains at Homegoods & Marshall's. Also, mix in a few bright colored accessories and possibly a piece of art. Good luck.

It looks clean, newer and neutral. I agree with a bright, modern shower curtain to coordinate with your towels. Canvas art is light weight and could easily be hung on 3M hooks/hardware on a tile wall or drywall above the towel bar. A fun floor mat & accessories and you are set. Good Luck!
