Do you have a favorite bathroom style?
I love the country cottage look. Whitewashed walls, antique claw foot tub, painted wood floor. Billowy soft curtains. A lot of antique white!
I am considering redecorating a small bathroom, however, I have stained wood Amish made cabinetry that I probably should not distress or white wash. But, we only live once, right?
This is the type of thing I love:
I would probably go with a light sage green instead of robin’s egg blue, or perhaps caramel or a deep sand beige.
Simple, rustic, country cottage feel…and, of course, I have to add, I can see a large bowl of goat milk soap sitting somewhere in the room, along with a claw foot tub, great for the aromatherapy bath treatment!
By the way, this photo came from Valspar.com. I had a load of fun picking out colors, and using the “digital painter.”
Seeing as soap is your trademark and passion, the bathroom SHOULD be the one room your decorating reigns supreme ( to quote Iron Chef). Love the bathroom, and whatever color you choose it would be a nice bathroom!
I love the rustic look, this particular cottage look. But, from experience, parts of my home are older, I do become more aware of the imperfections. It is also the beauty of it.
I can’t wait to see how you decide to paint and accent your bath.
You know I’ve redone my small bath and I still love it. I’m thinking of re-doing the big bath. I’m not sure whether to go with the same color scheme, since I love it so much, or find another. Guess I need to go stand in front of the color wheel a bit.
Becky, I did think about your and your sea foam bathroom when I posted this. My walls in the bathroom are not ancient, nor torn up, but they are a peach with sponge paint white on top. I am ready for a change. The bedroom is another story, it is definitely 1980’s peach and country blue. Nothing wrong with those colors, but wallpaper tends to look old after a number of years. I might as well do it all at once. Now, finding the time is another issue!
