My peachy pink has an aqua/turquoise accent rope tile in it, so I've picked up on the aqua for towels or use the white ones I had. I have a rice paper shower curtain in there. Paint-wise, my friend's sister suggested a very pale aqua - I found one so pale that it's hard to say it has color, but the chip seems to work better than the beige off white in there now. I was surprised because I thought it would be too much. On your next trip to the paint/hardware store, pick up some chips, even sets of close to whites. The differences with just a little undertone in your bathroom lighting are amazing.

It is also my way to post about ideas for something and then finally have time to actually carry out the project years later! About to do the same thing with the entry from out garage. It needs help!! Ha!

This goes back awhile now and Rita said it originally and I do agree with her: "Part of what confuses me about the partially tiled wall is usually, when you see a half tiled bathroom wall, it's the bottom half that is tiled and the top half is painted or papered. Here are some pictures. And while these bathrooms are very traditional, the modern ones that features super cool tile, used it on the whole wall- maybe just one wall with their fanciest tile, but floor to ceiling- not ceiling to washbasin. And of course you can choose to march to the beat of your own drummer, which has already resulted in some pretty awesome and thoughtful designs in your kitchen. With this issue, the look is unfinished- like cpartist said, it looks like you ran out of tile." Right now the baseboard is not working at that thickness and I don't think a thick white baseboard is the answer. If it were me I'd have tiled the sink wall all the way. This way you have a pure visual backdrop to your 'features'. And yes paint the baseboard to match the wall for sure but I'd also beef it up.

Simply buy towels in a color you like, with a detail on them. Replace the mirror with something more dramatic or paint the frame the same color as your new towels. If you pick out new flooring, go to a specialty shop that deals with tile only, and not a box store. They can give you ideas and provide the installation.
