Examples Of Bathroom Decor And Color Schemes

Decorate your bathroom with colors and accessories that you enjoy.


Bathroom decor is often overlooked during the home decorating process. The bathroom is, however, one of the rooms you will spend quite a bit of time in. Decorate your bathroom in a relaxing, elegant way so it is fun colorful room that gets you excited to start your day.


Red


Red bathroom walls will contrast with white bathroom fixtures.








Red bathrooms can feel romantic, exciting, formal or help create other moods using a theme or decorating style. Using small bursts of red with neutral colors, sleek tile, interesting fixtures and absolutely no clutter will create a modern bathroom. Deep red walls with plants, flowers, fluffy towels and many candles can spice up a romantic bathroom. Create a nautical theme by pairing the red with blue and white, hanging an anchor boarder on the wall and placing a small sailboat on the counter or using a sailboat-themed shower curtain.


Blue


Cool colors, such as blue, can create a refreshing feeling in a bathroom. Blue and white work for a modern, romantic, country or traditional style bathroom. Combine other colors with the blue, such as black, yellow, green, pink or cream to make your style work with patterns you like. A blue and yellow color scheme works for a rubber duck theme. Blue also works with any color you could imagine--or a few different colors--if you want to create an underwater scene with fish, mermaids and other under-the-sea creatures.


Green


Some shades of green and pink can work together to create a garden or flower themed bathroom.


Lime green works for a modern bathroom if you use it sparingly with white. Create a summer-fresh bathroom with citrus colors including lime green and yellow. Use lime green paint with lemon yellow accessories, such as towels, bath mats, lemon-scented candles or tall cylinders filled with faux lemons. Create a country garden using a subdued, earthy shade of green with white or light-colored flowers. A green frog theme allows you to use green with purple or white for a whimsical bathroom.


Pink


Pink works for a romantic, country or Victorian bathroom. Bright pink and chocolate brown works for a modern bathroom or cherry blossom theme. Turn your bathroom into the ultimate primping room with various shades of pink and soft, fluffy accessories for a diva theme. Mix hot pink and bright orange for a sweet or carefree look. Use a candy theme and paint the walls with stripes or circles.
