candicane Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 White. White/White/White just looks better to me, in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProudGrandma Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 it doesn't look bland? you must have lots of other color in the room from other things, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiMi 4under3 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Ours are also white on white. So is the tile... and the walls... and the kitchen... and the curtains... and all the furniture! :lol: it doesn't look bland? you must have lots of other color in the room from other things, huh? Nope! It looks fresh, clean, light, bright, and energizing. (to me and DH at least) :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoobie Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Kohler White sinks, Kashmir White granite counter in master bath. Kohler White sinks, Specchio White Hanstone (quartz) in the kids' baths. The painted cabinets aren't WHITE white. Ours are Benjamin Moore's Swiss Coffee, kids' are SW Eider White. If your toilet and sink and tub will be different manufacturers, you can google for the right color white if you want them to match. It's crazy that there are so many options!

angela in ohio Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 White. I have a thing about white in a bathroom. In every home, in every bathroom, I always do white cabinetry, white counter or sink, white trim, etc. with a pretty shade of green or blue on the wall and cream flooring. Then I add artwork and such to add interest. I think it looks clean with all the white, and it makes the job easy; I just have to pick out the wall color and then go shopping for accessories when it's done. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candicane Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 it doesn't look bland? you must have lots of other color in the room from other things, huh? Nope! My shower curtain is a design of purple, yellow, blue and green. Then the towels have the same colors that I change out (so I have a set of two out at once (mine and guest cause my bathroom is also guest bathroom)) and then my rugs are blue. It works great!

Mrs Mungo Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Sink, counters, tub and shower are all white. The walls are dark gray, my towels, rugs, etc are green and blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbgrace Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Ours is white, as is the tub. The color in the room is blue (walls are a lighter, floor has darker blue in it). I like a light and open feel in a bath. My favorite bath towel/accent type color is actually light yellow, but it must not be popular. I can't find things in that color anymore.

ProudGrandma Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 wow...really, white white and white. I will start rethinking this. If you didn't mention it, what color floor do you have? this bathroom will will be small and tight...so I don't want it to look smaller, however, I want it to look nice because it's on the main floor of our home and that is the bathroom where all guests will use. But it's also the kid's bathroom....but I don't want it to look kiddy either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zoobie Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Master bath: Cararra marble hex tiles (gray and white). BM Titanium (warm, light gray) walls, SW Sea Salt (pale turquoise) ceiling. Kid 1 bath: Nantucket Oak Core-tec (a gray-ish, beachy wood tone) vinyl plank with navy wall paint and SW Topsail (turquoise/aqua) ceiling. Kid 2 bath: Kingswood Oak Core-tec (dark brown) vinyl plank floors with a pale lavender paint on walls and Topsail on the ceiling. Both kids' baths have white subway tile on the walls of the shower/tub area with a band of colored accent tile, but mostly white. The counters in their baths have some aqua-y flecks and silver sparkle from recycled glass and mirrors. The main interest in theirs is the wall color and (as yet non-existent!) decor because I wanted them fun. Our master bath counter has a white background, but there are grays and mica and little garnet-y pieces. The colors in there are subtle but show up in the light space. I wanted a light, relaxing room. What do you want the look/feel to be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie12345 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 White vanity, white sink/top, white medicine cabinet, white toilet, white shower curtain (hiding the ugly pink tub, lol) and white tile floor with some gray in it. Walls are a bluish-gray. It is the one and only room capable of looking spotless for 10 minutes at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Four bathrooms, four white vanities. All came with cultured marble tops. Not very exciting. We bought this house from the builder, who lived in it. Some things he did beautifully--oak fireplace mantle and stair handrails, crown moldings, some other things--but it looks as if some things he just did contractor grade, such as identical bathroom vanities and cultured marble tops, even in the master bath. And they look fine. :-) We've remodeled two bathrooms, but the other two sill stay the way they are because they are in good condition and they look fine.

bolt. Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Same as our kitchen counters: kind of cream with subtle, cloudy beige and grey-blue effects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trinchick Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 If you're looking for inspiration for colors, maybe spend some time on houzz.com . Designers will have posted every color combination imaginable. Be warned, though, hours slip away like nanoseconds.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 it doesn't look bland? you must have lots of other color in the room from other things, huh? Our bathrooms are wallpapered, and we match towels, bath mats, and shower curtains to the wallpaper, so there's plenty of color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMJ Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 White bathrooms here. We were only allowed to pick our floor tile (close to white, as it happens) and we opted out of wallpaper. By the way, having lived with "pale" floor tile grout for 10 years now I highly recommend dark grout for all floor tiles. It's going to get that way eventually (though unevenly so), so have the grout stained dark at the start and make it part of the overall look of the place!

Ewe Mama Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 White with pinky beige tops, white trim and walls. Very colorful towels and shower curtain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFSinIL Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 White. The countertop and sink are all one piece and sit onto of a white vanity. The sink, in fact, is one of those that jut out over the vanity section. It is all small, but fits our tiny bathroom in this old house.
