Mixing Bathroom Light Fixtures with Bathroom Fixtures?
Comments (5)no, it wouldn't I mixed finishes in all my baths..looks pretty natural. I don't even think people notice..they just see bigger picture. Don't mix brushed nickel and polished nickel, or chrome and nickel, these are too close to mix successfuly. ORB is different enough from brushed nickel, and also gives that very neutral feel, it being dark..you should be fine. but you can also cross post your question in Home Decorating forum..there's usually where questions about colors etc. go. Or Bathrooms one..but Home Decorating has more traffic..you 'll get more responces...See Moregold bathroom faucets and gold trim around shower
Comments (37)As others have posted, get rid of the toilet seat cover and any other "cute" stuff that makes it seem "grandma" - meaning no disrespect to grandmas who can be stylish. Any towels should be very modern and hotel/spa in feel. Make sure everything is clean clean and more clean. Investing in a professional cleaner for all areas in the house is money well spent. Otherwise leave it as be because remodeling a bathroom for sale is a slippery slope and given that your bathroom tile is lovely and the fixtures look well with it, I doubt very much that a serious prospective buyer is going to reject the home based on it having "gold" fixtures. I just finished a remodel of bathrooms and my bathroom style is completely unlike this bathroom. However, if I were in the market for a new home, I wouldn't pass on a home if the bathroom wasn't the style that was my personal favorite so long as it was clean and met my functional needs in terms of having a comfortable shower; adequate storage (hate hate hate pedestal sinks because no place to put things. Your bathroom is a perfectly find bathroom - attractive to most people even if it's not the height of trendiness - but I think most people don't have bathrooms that are the height of trendiness anyway - after all how often do people actually remodel a bathroom - and if you change the color of fixtures - that starts a chain reaction - it's not the same as painting or putting up wallpaper or even changing the sconces or mirrors....See Moremaster bathroom lighting - scone or 2-light fixture?
Comments (19)Shrina, the color is fine.(Although Polar White is a cool white w/more of a blue undertone. Since you have the brown tiles, I might have gone w/a warmer white. But you can work around it) once you get the mirror framed out, it will start to take shape. (maybe do a warm wood frame?) Add some cool hardware to your vanity. (maybe something w/decorative knobs) You don't want to paint the vanity? What you need is life on that large, blank wall! you could also do a shelf or two above the toilet to add a few accessories. here are some examples and all of them would perk up your space. do some inexpensive wood shelves. have some wood cut at Home depot, sand and stain them. get the brackets there too. (you can spray paint them silver, gold, white, whatever) then bring in some warm elements like the baskets, rolled towels, etc IF you paint your vanity white (or another color) it will revive the entire look ideas for the back wall,,,, this one you can cut a piece of peel and stick wallpaper, frame it, paint the frame, and voila! While on this one below, they did the entire wall. (you could do the peel and stick, regular wallpaper, or a mural). maybe some glass shelves over the toilet w/a picture or something. paint it a bold color (the one wall) and do some photography art or do a few picture shelves bold color, focal accessory (here they used a map, but any large picture or two would work) but look at the other items in the room. the rolled towels, a basket, nice rug, etc maybe a few pictures you can do something like this w/faux succulents. so a few shiplap boards, paint a darker color above it, add art or shelving and if you want to go full out, paint your vanity, add some wainscot around the bottom (you can DIY this) and whatever else you like get yourself a better vanity tray RL,4000K is hardly hospital-like. it's natural light. 2700 is really dim and really yellow. I think the lighting is fine. The glaring cool white walls are making it brighter. any reason why you picked white for the walls w/all of your brown/creamy tones?...See Morebathroom vanity light with gold interior
Comments (3)IMO bathroom lighting needs to be really good lighting first and the style after. I think the gold will affect the way the light looks and I think it won’t be good Pendant lighting in a bathroom really does not do a good job of lighting the space, the mirror or the counter. Take some pics of the bathroom post them here so we can see what you have. No matter what you choose it needs to be LED 4000K in both kitchens and bathrooms....See MoreBeth H. :
