I see that your shower surround has black trim, or at least it looks black. Would you consider painting the vanity black? And I don't see any pulls or handles on the vanity. If you paint it and add some handles, that would change the look quite a bit. Maybe some brass colour handles to make it look and feel a bit luxe?

Then for a wall paint I think I'd find a warm ivory colour, moving away from gold, but still tying to your floor tile colour.

It is hard to tell your floor tile colour - I'm wondering if a colour like BM HC27 - Monterey White might work. I think it would play well with the black and also with the tile colour. Or maybe AF20 - Mascarpone

I know, not the blue you were talking about. What do you think?

benjamin moore green tint, colorado gray, galaxy. abalone. I would consider painting the vanity a Java color.

I don't think painting the vanity is a big job. I hear you about having a lot of jobs on the go and it can become overwhelming.

Take the drawers and doors off and paint them outside or in the garage, where you can lay them out.

Look for a paint that is made for bathrooms and that has a self levelling finish, so that you aren't left with roller or brush marks.

Tape off the floor and edges against the walls and go to it. If you can use a small roller, it gives a nicer finish than a paint brush.

You might need to give it all a light sanding before starting, or at least clean it with some water and TSP, to remove any dirt of oil before starting.

If you are going black, then you'll need to choose a different rug and unless you need the long length, I'd look for a smaller one for just in front of the vanity or stepping out of the tub.

And I see you have a piece of art on the wall with a black frame. That can stay and will look good pulling the black in a bit more.

What do you think of this pull? This one might be a bit too large, but I'm thinking some thing rich looking would add quite a bit to the vanity to make it look less 80s.

your main problem is the florescent lighting. it's going to skew any color you choose, as nothing will look like the paint chip when you get it home. You have a horrible green/yellow hue. I sure hope you don't do your makeup in there!

at the very least, can you redo the light issue? it isn't that difficult or expensive to do yourself.

then I wouldn't pick a color with a yellow or green base. find something in the blue like you want and try it. bring home samples to try on the walls because nothing will end up looking like the paint chip.

navy and a black? no. It's going to suck up all the light! I like this, but you need some lighter elements. maybe if you could do a white floor ? you can paint vinyl or tile

how about a black vanity, that one wall black (window wall) and white (a blue based white) everywhere else?

or do a dark blue vanity and gray/blue walls.

blue vanity and light blue. ( this was a design challenge w/a builder basic oak bathroom. everything you see was redone for under 1K. including flooring)

what if you guys removed that light, took out the fixture, quickly patched and painted and replace w/something similar to this? or even an LED light bar? shouldn't take more than an hour and would really change the overall look. anything is better than what you have! For two more years!

VanDeusen is a very nice blue. I've used it. it can be a little on the dark side.
