Need ideas for the bathroom/floor & empty wall.

I cannot seem to find the right picture for this bathroom wall. I want to put in new flooring.........should I go white tiles for the floor?

    Great job! Looks great too!

    It's really coming together. I think that the tile, the dark cabinet, the wall paint, and the artwork look great together. Once you paint the trim, all you'll need are the accessories to put the finishing touches to the space.

    The "pro" should read a whole thread before posting a "travertine" sales pitch.

    I dont think you should add white, because if you do, then it will camouflage with your sink, toilet, and carpet, i honestly think your bathroom is perfect

    Next the vanity. Not sure how dark to go? Suggestions?

    Are you using the gel stain I talked about before? Or are you stripping, sanding restaining? Or are you painting?

    I would go black vanity and mirror frame, if painting.
    I would go deep expresso brown if staining ;)
  • 12 years ago
    I agree Margo :)
    If the black is too dark for you, decorcrazy, you could also do a really deep charcoal, just a bit less stark. :)

    For vanity, I think I would paint gray from the wall palette, just a couple of shades lighter than the wall.

    Hummmm...now im really confused. I plan on painting.

    Hi Decorcrazy, I'm not sure I agree with painting your vanity black. I am leaning more toward sanding and staining in the espresso rub, which I think will be warmer. I'm having trouble finding Valspar paint chips on the internet - the best I can do is a match of the Vessel Gray you used on your walls on the MyPerfectColor site.

    Do you have any paint chips,showing the gradiation of co,ors - to whatever color is two shades lighter than the Vessel Gray? I think LB touched on this in an earlier comment - to go,up and down the color strip and work in the different tones of the color.

    I still kinda lean toward espresso stain on the vanity, and maybe a beveled mirror, then ORB for the light fixture(s) to tie in with the faucet.

    I did find you a cool shower curtain though - C&B:

    Decor, don't stress, paint is easily painted over. I think that the bathroom needs a bit of contrast. A black, charcoal or espresso color paint would be really nice and let all the new surfaces in the bathroom really stand out beautifully.
    Some great colors from Sherwin Williams are
    SW Tricorn black for a black
    SW black bean for an espresso
    SW grays harbor for a deep gray

    This is what they look like :)
  • 12 years ago
    This is a rough idea of what the colors would look like. Remember, it will look a million times better in person. This wasn't the best photo to work with :)
  • 12 years ago
    I think with the ORB faucets I would go with the Expresso;))
  • 12 years ago
    Black, especially with the grey on the walls! Black is classy and looks good in any room. You've done a beautiful job!
  • 12 years ago
    mforr what was the first color example? I like the first two.
  • 12 years ago
    First is SW Tricorn Black, the second is SW Black Bean :)
  • 12 years ago
    Ok Houzzer's I have been away for awhile but I am back and ready to move forward with the vanity. I have narrowed it down to 4 paint choices. It is Valspar paint. (Lowe's) 1) Volcantic Ash 2) Lincoln Cottage black 3) Chimney Smoke 4) Dark Kettle Black. I am leading towards the Chimney Smoke. Thoughts? I wasn't sure how to attach the colors on this website.

    I don't know what those colors look like : ) but I would use a paler gray than the wall color. With enough contrast with vanity top. Since the vanity is so close to the door and entry way into the room, I would not want to feel like it is blocking the path and jumping out at me. A dark color will feel more crowded.

    Our bathroom is a color I really like Sherwin-Williams Sensitive Tint, a greyed lavender. You could go lighter than this. We have it all trimmed in white, with dark grey linen texture plank tiles, a Calacatta honed marble vanity top, all trim and Shaker style vanity in S-W Dover White, and satin nickle fixtures. The shower curtain is actually grommeted drapery panels in silver with grey pattern, and I sewed a shower curtain liner on back. I have artwork in silver frames on one wall, and another trimmed in a gold above the towels. I like mixing frames rather than being matchy.

    This is from 2013. In case you don't know, Houzz has a key word generator that pulls up related old posts based on key words in the title, and displays them to the right of the page. If you read them, check the date as most of them are very old, and have been dead for months.

    I see you've switched to your Easter bonnet, Margo...dressing seasonally, are you?
  • 11 years ago
    Bubbas, it's Saturday. Still winter. What's to focus on?
  • 11 years ago

    Kare! So far... absolutely NOTHING! Oh wait... I did eat lunch. Maybe I should let the dog out?

  • 11 years ago
    The dog will let you know when it wants out lol. So.......is this Margo playing knock-a-door-ginger? Pings everyone, then runs away??
  • 11 years ago

    I kinda think so, ya. She did a bunch of early morning ding-dong-ditching, she may be napping now and planning out her next wave of knocking.

  • 11 years ago
    We did have a full moon the other night.....maybe that explains things?
  • 11 years ago

    Ahhhhh. Yep, that could sure explain things!

  • 11 years ago
    If her next post is a howl, we'll know for sure!
  • 11 years ago

    Mr. Mooz always made us HOWL.... I left a note for her (somewhere) that she should consider a new "Mr Mooz does Easter". I told her you would come visit. I think she's ignoring me...

  • 11 years ago
    Spring....mating season.....maybe a Moozz version of The Bachelor?
  • 11 years ago

    Hmmm? There ya go!

    I have been hanging light fixtures all day..... they were missing parts grrrrrr...... Karemore, bubbas, LB, Whooo hOOOOOOO. Do you think decorcrazy is around the Houzz?

    'I'M' not around Houzz much.... so don't know :)

  • 11 years ago
    Same for me, LB. I guess none of us is in the loop anymore.....if there have been any other dilemmas by Decorcrazy, I wouldn't know either.

    Decorcrazy, come out and give us a wave - we will behave, I promise! Well, can't speak for Margo.....:))
  • 11 years ago

    Well, I can not promise I will behave but I have put away the anger that has reared it's ugly head.

  • 11 years ago
    Do you recall if anyone had a back door dilemma? I feel like we are sneaking in the back door of Houzz.....

    Behaving is overrated, Margo. You've never really lived until you have misbehaved.
