Paint Design Dilemma Bathrooms

Help. Advice needed on bathroom paint color.

4 years ago

last modified: 4 years ago

Help! Need to pick paint color for south facing hall bath currently under construction. Walls were SW Filmy Green which in such a sunny room really washed out. Only did to counteract the awful previous blush floor tile and pink swirl Formica vanity top. New vanity is navy with white top like this:

Not a fan of whites or greiges but do love a greens, blue/greens and grays with blue or green tint. Hallway outside is SW Sea Salt. Am thinking of these colors below but would appreciate any help, feedback or ideas.

Have you looked at them in the ColorSnap Vizualizer? You can upload your photo or use one of their baths. It is a good way to narrow down a field. I added your colors to the background of the cabinet and fixtures you show:
My favorites are Quietude and Moody Blue.

I painted my master bedroom with valspar moose mousse, a real light beige. I have a his and her vanity with white cabinets that need painted. I’d like to go possibly with a mocha or another to compliment the bedroom color. I would like to get some advice from others. Thanks.

How about I replace the toilet and paint the tub? I have never painted the tub, is there an easy way to do this? Spray perhaps? I guess I am asking how do I change the other parts of the bathroom to match the vanity? I got a good deal on the vanity, and I like to try to make it work, but I do have the option of returning it.

This is outstanding advice thank you so much. Are you saying the paint color should be a patterned crisp white or are you referring to the tile color? What exactly does that mean for paint? Please advise.

Pretty! I am doing a similar tile in my bathroom remodel right now. Are you only open to Sherwin Williams? Because Benjamin Moore has some beautiful gray bathroom colors, better than SW in my opinion. I’ve done a lot of research and made a lot of mistakes lol. Here is a good article. I’m doing gray owl, myself. https://www.kylieminteriors.ca/the-9-best-benjamin-moore-paint-colors-grays-including-undertones/
