Tile ideas to go with this vanity and wallpaper!

last year

Need help picking tiles to go with this wallpaper and vanity (Annie 30" Bathroom Vanity, Weathered Fir Finish). Will have a walk in shower. Not keen on white subway tiles.. Need tiles for the floor and the shower floor and shower walls... thanks!

Thoughts:

- That's a very neutral vanity, which will match pretty much anything -- that's good because you'll be able to change things up over the years.

- That wallpaper is very cool! But it's a strong color. How big is your bathroom? If it's small or doesn't have a window, I'd consider using the wallpaper on an accent wall.

- I don't love subways either -- too much grout and overdone. For the shower, I'd get a large-scale tile for the walls (either white or off-white, whichever matches that wall paper). I'd use a shower pan instead of tile on the shower floor. I prefer laminate flooring (warmer, easier on the joints), but if you're going with tile on the floor, I'd like to see penny rounds -- they'd echo the round jellyfish in the wallpaper, and they'd give you a pattern.

thanks for the ideas!! Yes we are thinking just an accent wall for the wallpaper! it does have a window and 9ft ceiling but isn't large. Floor Laminate could be a nice idea, not has that in forever, maybe some more modern ones nowadays!?

Wallpaper over shower - crazy idea?

In 1987, two friends (non-professionals) wallpapered our bathroom as a gift to us, while my family and I were out of the country. The only "venting" in the bathroom has been -- the window! And yes, the wallpaper began to peel-- about two years ago, after more than 15 years of lots of hard use as the only tub/shower in this 110-year-old house. I'd say--go for it!

I like the wallpaper and the black/white floor tiles. It has a lot of pattern but I think it's fine for a guest bath. I would tile the shower area with green instead of blue, to match your vanity. Emerald green with black and white can look great. The paint your mirror frame black or green.

Wallpaper is going -- what about the vanity?

Good idea about the fourplex! As for our Arts& Crafts inclination -- we probably need to set that aside for resale purposes. The young families buying houses in our area don't seem to like natural woodgrain so I probably won't add more. We have lots already! Maybe I should say we are trying to get away from the old Pottery Barn look to something more contemporary. The only light in this room is the one over the sink. The ceiling is the typical tract house ceiling. I used the light green version of these large format tiles in my kitchen and totally love them -- they look like etched glass even tho they are porcelain. The photos don't really do them justice, since the depth of the glaze is not picked up by the camera. The oval mirror covers a hole in the drywall, which will be repaired when the wallpaper is removed. Maybe that's where we should put the handtowel hanger..... And we don't know what's behind that big flat mirror. I suspect pipes run through that space to the bathrooms above, preventing a recessed cabinet. But if not we could even use this one (from the Kohler Archer line like the toilet):

Bathroom will be done today. An existing tilted chrome mirror will be hung. I purchased the wallpaper from Wallpaper Direct ( online order). I took a quick picture of the door that has black door molding around door. I will not any additional black. I will pull a color from a fish to add a towel to dry hands.
