A Jack and
Instructions
1. Start with a neutral color if the Jack and Jill bathroom is linking two very different color schemes. If you have pastels in one room and primary colors in another, a neutral beige or light yellow will be your middleground palette.
2. Be creative when it comes to themes. Think about the themes in each adjoining bathroom and come up with a way to link them. If you have dinosaurs in one room and flowers in another, green leaves or other tropical, non-floral vegetation meet these themes in the middle. Take advantage of any shared elements from both bedrooms.
3. Consider the ages of the people sharing the bathroom. Children of both genders can enjoy unisex themes like the alphabet, animals or the beach, while teens or adults living on either side of a Jack and Jill might be better suited to a simple color block pattern, dots or stripes.
4. Consider designating "his" and "hers" sections of the bathroom. A neutral base can be accented by pinks on one side and blues on another. Each child could get their own gender-specific station at the vanity. If kids of the same gender share the Jack and Jill, you can still use different colors and styles for each child. While you vary the colors, keep the overall tone the same--doing ultra-contemporary on one side and formal Victorian on the other will be a weird clash.
