Question

I just bought a black shower curtain and am at a loss as to what color to paint the walls. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

I would go with a muted yellow/cream/goldish color.  Keep it neutral and you're more likely to like the color longer.  If you go crazy with a blue or pink you'll probably get sick of it sooner.

Answer 2

id go with a light color with black!!

like pastel pink or purple

or light blue or light green

yellow would make a great color with black

grey too would look nice as well

Answer 3

hot pink would look good

Answer 4

play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to find colors that you like. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family & color name, the "painted" rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

I think a pale "fancy pink" (# 7107) would look great.

Answer 5

Grey sound good.

Answer 6

Hmmmm.    Usually in design you pick the wall and floor color and materials first.   Something like a shower curtain would be an accent you add later.

Black puts you in the particular color group, which includes white, grey, blue, and red.   I hope your bathroom fixtures are white, rather than almond.

Since bathrooms are small, I'd choose a very light color, which gives a sense of cleanliness too.  Perhaps a light grey.

Then use metal accents, and bright towels.

Look in magazines or decorating books.   Look for a black look in a bathroom.  Copy what they did.
