Show me your bathrooms - need color scheme ideas (walls and towels)
We have 3 bathrooms in our new place - 2 full baths and one half bath. They all need new paint jobs and we still have to get towels for them.
I need ideas on what to paint them and what colors to do towels. I'd love to see what everyone's bathrooms look like.
The half bath downstairs we will be putting in wainscotting eventually, so I'd def like to see anyone who has this on the walls.

Re: Show me your bathrooms - need color scheme ideas (walls and towels)
I'd help you if DH were in the bathroom painting instead of looking at tools online! We just put in wainscotting (we got the vinyl kit from Lowes) and painted that a cream color. Just waiting for DH to get moving on the top which is a slate blue color. Not totally sure on towels, probably either white or taupe. Hopefully I can post pics soon.

Re: Show me your bathrooms - need color scheme ideas (walls and towels)
I have 2.5 baths.
The half bath has white wainscotting on the lower half of the walls, the floor is white octagon tiles with black insets (kind of vintage looking), and the walls are a smoky light gray/purplish color (SW Ponder). I also considered doing a wedgewood blue color, but I have a lot of blues and greens in my house, so I wanted something different.
My main upstairs (hall) bath is painted BM Saybrook Sage. The tile and vanity are cream colored, and the fixtures are oiled bronze.
My master bath still has the original light blue tiles in the shower (unfortunately), but we did a mini-updated by getting an new dark wood vanity with a white sink and painting the walls a light brown/latte color to go with a light blue/brown color scheme that also complements our bedroom color scheme.
I switch out my towels (and in the main bath, the shower curtain) based on the season.
Sorry I don't have any pictures, but hope this is helpful anyway!

Ours has white wainscoting against BM pismo dunes. The towels are a dark sage-like color, chrome fixtures, and white everything else (cabinet, standing shelf, etc.)
It reminds me of a spa.
