any suggestions for our decorating of the bathroom?
my friend and i jst found an apartment, we are 18, and we know how to decorate every room but the bathroom. we have the colors we want (blue,green, and a lighter pink) and we want a kind of tropical outlook but when it comes to painting the walls we have no idea how we want to do them….any suggestions?
i’d stay away from painting the walls pink – light pink is very gendered (as opposed to, say, fuschia, which can come off as bold and modern). blue or green would be good choices, but don’t assume you have to paint all the walls. one fun thing to do is use tiny nails to mount a piece of trim about 36″ up, parallel to the floor, all the way around the room. paint either above it or below it a color, and leave the rest white. if you’re feeling dexterous, using masking tape to make blue and green stripes could be really striking. or paint one wall completely as an accent wall, and leave the rest plain. or just paint the tub alcove. or paint patterns of squares or rectangles on the wall behind the vanity mirror.
no matter what color paint you chose, be sure to use high-gloss paint to deter mildew.
another cool decor trick: wall decals. there are some amazing ones here: http://www.fermlivingshop.us/stickers/index.html if you can’t afford the decals, use them as inspiration for creating your own stencils.
