Decor/Art for Bathroom
Comments (58)Thanks for the opinions ... Yes, the turtle wall hanging, or it could be a bowl or platter (but with the flaw, it's not food safe). I do really like turtles, but it's more of their a happy association with the trips I've taken to Hawai, not like a decorating obession or anything. My house is small, so I only have a limited amount of space, so no place for the turtle except this one place in my bathroom. The whale triptych (actually 4 pieces, not sure what that is called) behind it is absolutely gorgeous, and what originally caught my eye. But too big for the space, and way out of the range I'm willing to spend (and overpriced, to be honest) 1 hr until the craft fair closes down ....hmmm .......See MorePainting & Decorating my bathroom
Comments (12)I agree with justerrilynn about the wall color The previous owner picked the wrong shade..a cooler lilac. Throws everything off. Warm cream, slightly peach-y undertone will make this mistake go away. Bonus: we people tend to look good when surrounded by these types of colors..:) We don't always like them, but oh boy, do they love us:) Now. I realized when people say "modern" they often mean different things when you say "modern" you mean "modern" as in style (cleaner lines, colors either more muted or more bright but with a lot of presence so to say..florals -if one loves florals-tend to be big, love for geometry..lots of natural materials but also not shying away from plastic etc)..or do you mean "modern" as in "more updated"? Because for example light fixtures-what you choose will depend on it. Oh you can mix and match these of course-but if you like more modern as in modern, you need to take it there ever so slightly with light fixtures since the bath is not modern in its nature. Mirrors-if you decide to go for different ones-will depend on it. Accessories..you're freer there..as well as with art..you can be reserved in both, in some as justerilynn suggests, or go to town so to say, when you figure out what speaks to you of course. I'm personally fine with the vanity and countertop..these are also bigger items so to say in terms of budget so will depend on how far you're willing to take it. Then you'll see how you'll want new sinks..:) and then you might like less your tub surround..in short won't stop there If you want to keep it simpler I'd choose a) paint b) lights c) new faucets? and maybe adding handles of your preferred style to the vanity? d) accessories(towels, storage thingies etc) and art-never underestimate art..it has the ability to transport you places like very few things do Ah, and I wouldn't be true to myself if I didn't say "and a plant", lol If you want a bigger change-then I'd look into changing the countertop etc knowing that's the "creeping elegance" waits to jump on you ..like a puma hiding in a tree..:) Unless you really hate the vanity Otherwise I'd let it be, make small changes, work around it...See MoreMaster bathroom- decor help
Comments (26)I would do art above the toilet. I personally think the shelves make the area look too (top) heavy and cluttered. With your cabinet and it looks like medicine cabinet do you need more storage from open shelving? You can find pretty framed at a lot of places. I would go with a silver leaf. For art try art.com. There are also several shops on Etsy that have some beautiful framable prints. Often they will customise them for you by color. I would do a nice matting within the frame of white....See MoreNeed help decorating apartment bedroom, attached bathroom
Comments (67)I also vote no to the plastic liner. hard to clean and wasteful to just replace them all the time. Nylon curtains can be thrown in the wash and bleached (it's easier to wash them routinely though, before the bottom hem gets moldy). I use this kind of hook which makes that chore super easy. I used to have two curtains doubled up on regular hooks and that worked just fine, btw. double sided hooks or double rods are not really necessary unless you just like the way it looks....See Morejoaniepoanie
