Can I mix chrome and polished nickel?
Comments (35)I don't know that I mind that combination: all chrome and nickel sconces. Maybe do a mock-up? Can you order the sconces and have a chrome back-up plan? I planned on using all chrome and had installed a chrome shower/tub fixtures. Then I picked scones in antique nickel, so even though I had chrome in the shower, I decided to do polished nickel everywhere else. Well none of the nickel finishes match either, the sconces are "antique" and the faucet is noticeably warmer tone than the cabinet hardware and towel ring. I'm really happy with the look! But if I did it over, I probably would have just had the sconces in nickel and kept chrome everywhere else. I think my fear of the chrome fixtures mismatching the nickel sconces was unfounded. Chrome would have been cheaper and easier to pick a towel hook, TP holder, etc. Here's a pic of the vanity area. The chrome isn't in this view, but the mismatched nickels are. I think your choice is a bit riskier but I wouldn't discount the option off hand....See MoreShower hardware finish - chrome or brushed?
Comments (10)I personally prefer polished chrome over brushed. We are renovating 2 baths now and I have selected polished chrome for each. One bathroom is in the same earth tone color scheme as yours. I think your shower fixtures go well with the tile, mosaic and granite. It's a personal choice and if you think it will bother you maybe change it, but I wouldn't go through the trouble and expense....See Morehow would white subway tile + an accent line of iridescent mosaic
Comments (5)I'm thinking of doing the same thing. I saw some bisazza mosaic blends at Home Depot (yep!) that looked fantastic with carrara (the mix was white/grey with a few iridescent tiles included) and it wasn't too pricey ($7.92/sq ft). the blend was "roma plus" - I couldn't find that blend on the bisazza website, but HD lady said many mfgs. have special products just for HD. I was also thinking of doing something similar - using the bisazzas on one accent wall, and running a strip of bisazzas around the rest of the room. I'd pay special attention to the undertone of the subways and mosaics & make sure they're ok with the carrara. whites can be really tricky. when next to stark white, the bisazzas had a grey-ish cast, which looked great with carrara and the almost black vanity. don't know what brand of subway tile you're looking at, but i believe the various dal whites have slightly different tones. also, the glass mosaics tend to be thinner than regular tiles, so be sure to take that into consideration during the install. I've seen the mosaic bands set between pencil liners, and that looked good....See MoreMixing light brown flooring w/white cabinetry--other shades??
Comments (5)I don't know how large of an accent area you are speaking of, but mother of pearl tile comes in almost pure white to beiges and tan, to hues of blue. My bathroom remodel is about to get underway. It is all ordered and demo date set. It's mostly Torreon Travertine, My sinks, tub, baseboards and doors are white. I am adding a mother of pearl tiny brick laid tile to the face of my built in shower bench. It is white with tan. I bought samples from Tilebar.com I chose mini brick oyster white. You can read the reviews and see photos of the customers who used the product. We ordered several color samples of the pearl tile and chose this one for our project. It runs $17.99 a sf sheet.
