When renovating or updating your bathroom, a lot of thought will be given to the choice of colors to use on the cabinets, the flooring, the paint, the rugs, the shower curtain, and even the towels. The bathroom is a room in which we spend a surprising amount of time, so the look, and overall feel are very important and the choice of colors deserve particular attention.
If you are completely renovating your bathroom you’ll need to start considering colors right away. What color will you want to paint your bathroom walls? Will the sink, the vanity, and tub or shower you are installing match with this color or contrast it? You’ll also need to think about how versatile these pieces are if you decide to change the color of the walls in the future.
If you are putting in new flooring, a neutral color is often the best as this will allow you to easily change the color of the walls in the future. As far as paint goes, light colors help create a clean appearance. Many bathrooms are painted in light blues, pinks, purples, and even greens because these colors help to bring color and character to the room while giving it a clean feel that is most appreciated in the bathroom. Light colors also help brighten a room, especially if there is not a lot of natural light that fills the room. Dark colors tend to make the room look smaller, and since bathrooms are generally the smallest rooms in the house, light colors simply make more sense.
Although wood grain vanities have always been popular; white wash varieties have become very popular in recent years. Pedestal sinks allow for space and make the room appear bigger. Lighted mirrors above the sink make the room look larger as well and help to highlight the wall color.
Choosing the color of the towels and the rugs is a lot of fun. You may choose to match the towels and rugs to the color of the paint on the walls, or you may choose a color that contrast with the walls. Towels and rugs can be expensive, so plan your color scheme in advance and be sure that you really like what you do choose. If you go light with the paint colors you can go dark with the towels and other accessories.
When you are done, your bathroom will look quite colorful and lovely!
