how do I make this tile pull pink/iridescent?

Hi! So I just got my bedrosians cloe tile set up today, grout to follow.

I saw a post here once about somebody who was upset that their cloe tile was looking very pink/iridescent. I hope that person knows how LOVELY I think it actually looked!

Any suggestions on paint colors to highlight that pink/iridescent color in the tile? I was planning on going with BM Pale Oak or BM Nature’s Essentials.

    I think if you love the pink a very pale pink wall might work I sure hope you did not do that floor tile with that shower tile Maybe explain the tile pic.

    Patricia while I do appreciate your advice when you give it, you pretty much always find a way to criticize another aspect of my design that I didn’t ask about lol

    The gray tile is the TUB surround and the flooring?



    What is the vanity? Show the remainder of the bathroom. If you want "pink" why did you not DO pink?: )

    Paint the walls, don't even think about pink grout.......: (

    Jan the gray tile I posted is just the flooring! Honestly I don’t know what they’re doing with that wood surrounding the tub, I expect it would just be the same wall tile I am actually going to ask them about that now.

    Pink grout! Can you imagine 😭. Don’t worry the grout is a standard warm bright white that the tile manufacturer recommended.

    I don’t really want pink, I just liked the pinkish hue of the tile when set against certain colors 😊 and actually the paint swatches you posted (I think those are paint swatches?) pull it out quite nicely. I’m surprised they are calling Pink Bliss pink- it looks much more like a warm white to me!

    What fixture color will you have? doing a gold or soft french gold..would be beautiful. look at a soft beige with pink undertones…no Pale Oak it has green undertones.

    Home interiors so the fixtures are polished nickel and [although some will cringe] I am planning on including an unlacquered brass light fixture.

    Ok so here is where my color illiteracy is showing. I thought that the green undertones in something like Pale Oak would make the pink in the tile pop by contrast 🤣 it sounds like I am totally off base lol

    Pink Bliss is Ben Moore.

    The wood is their "Leveler" which UNLESS you specified other? Is going to be tiled. Look at the top line in your shower...is he repeating the install as that?

    You don't guess, you ask, and before you have to ask? You TELL

    Ok good that’s fine. Jan I’m not very good at TELLING unless I’m talking to my husband 🤣

    Yes green is a contrasting color for pink…it can enhance pink but your tiles have such a subtle pink barely there so not sure it would do what you would hope and you end up with neutral walls that have a green cast…polished nickel is beautiful but again will not necessarily bring out any pink..but is a beautiful combination….mixing metal finishes will be lovely…..polished nickel is considered a warmer metal....I love polished nickel…. have it in my kitchen and love it…

    Forget green : )lol

    And WHAT is the vanity and where is the rest of the bath?? What is the counter on the vanity?

    I would do white walls (a white like the one in you tiles) and bring pink accessories.

    If you want it to look pink, put some green in there. You were totally ON base when you thought putting the complementary color (green) next to it would enhance the pinkness. On the flip side, putting pink next to it could actually make it look less pink, depending on how pink it actually is.

    Sorry but I am a toatl visual person and often see things that make no sense to me and that was one . i still think Pink Bliss is the color to go with and maybe those tiles are more gray than brown in real life . Then add some breen for small things like the acessories for soap and a water glass , you know thta kind of stuff or even a live lant if it will survive since you have awindow , but really if pnk is not your thing then do a nice gray
