Colorful bathroom needs help

3 years ago

Got a wild hair, and decided to turn one of my downstairs baths into an art gallery of sorts. I’m LOVING how all the colors and shapes vibe together, so far. However, I know there are several elements needed to pull it all together— and that’s where you beautiful people come in lol. I’m tossed as to a paint color(s), and what to do as it pertains to linens and accessories. I was thinking of these Missoni towel sets, but am still on the fence.

    I would do that for the walls and IMO solid colr towels ne print at all choose color from the art IMO do not add anymore pateern

    I love what you want to do, I am very into art myself. It would be relatively easy to paint the walls white which would showcase your art, but the vanity top looks like an old yellowish color. How does it look in person? Is it going to fight with what you're trying to do in this room?

    I agree white would look good for the walls. Or I know this sounds crazy probably, but could you do a bright color for the walls? Like yellow or red? Or even dark blue? One of the colors that isnt as prominent in the art.

    I think the walls need to move away from the current dull neutywhuch doesn’t go with the art colors. White is classic but I also see the vanity top color as clashing and might be more is a sore thumb with white. If vanity stays then you could consider a deep bright color as suggested above. I’d be thinking in the deep rich blue family as might go with vanity better than pinks/ reds.

    Solid towels- no prints.

    You and I have the same color scheme going on in our bathrooms. Even our wall paint and countertops look the same. I would pull from the deepest colors in your artwork and select one solid color for towels. Paint the vanity black, and add a black towel bar and accessories.

    Your art is fabulous!

    If you are looking just to paint I would not go with a white or very light color. The countertop will look like an old tooth next to a clean white or pastel.


    Mother Nature pairs bright warm colors with green. I would follow her lead. Not too light or it will still fight with your countertop.


    This is too light with the counter SW Filmy Green



    But I am really liking the greens with the same hue, but darker.


    SW Coastal Plain


    SW Jade Dragon (my favorite with the counter and art)


    SW Privilege Green



    I like Navy as a towel color - doesn't compete with the art.

    I’m loving all the fresh energy 😀 Keep it coming lol! The biggest takeaway, so far: ditching the Missoni towel set— and really, anything with a distracting print/pattern, for that matter. That would have been a HUGE, not to mention, aesthetically offensive lol, mistake 🫣 Also, I’m leaning toward a rich blue hue for the walls… for now 😂

    (Feeling navy or deep indigo for the walls)With pops of hot pink and golden yellow

  • 3 years ago

    Maybe haha

  • 3 years ago

    Wait, not indigo lol that’s way too purple

    Something, along these lines, for the walls 😍

    Can you post photos of all the walls in your bathroom?

  • 3 years ago

    Other walls and angles; she’s on the narrow side

    IMO you should change your towel bar to a hook and put it on the narrow piece of drywall between the bathtub and shower. It distracts from the art. Also, when the bathroom door is open, the art will be able to be seen with an unobstructed view. Right now, I think the view might be of the towel as well. Will you paint every wall or just the back wall? How will you add pops of hot pink and gold?

    I love the idea of ditching the rack for a “hook” and putting it on the narrow wall!! I plan on painting all the walls the same deep blue and adding pops of golden yellow and bright pink with towels and accessories. You’re awesome! Thanks for the recommendation!

    I'm so happy to see this update! Did you paint the ceiling too? I love that shade of blue.

  • 3 years ago

    Yes, you know it (painted the ceiling to match) lol 😊Vent covers come today! I fell in love with this blue-violet the moment I laid eyes on it 😍 it’s called “midnight navy” by Benjamin Moore (pearl finish). Thanks for sticking around and being patient with me lol

    It looks amazing! It also looks like you have been busy creating fabulous artwork. I think the quantity in the bathroom has doubled. You also moved the towel bar.

    The space looks more sophisticated.

    Thank you!

    Remember to paint ceiling vent cover and fan cover in the blue so they visually disappear

    I figured if I was going to create a functioning art gallery, I’d better go big or go Houzz… 😜😂
