Question:

Just had my bathroom redone and hate the tiling and colours of the vanity unit I have chosen. All different whites, brilliant white wall tiles, off white floor tiles and really off white vanity unit. Expensive mistake.

Can anyone give advice on what I can do to make the room look as though it all matches and works?

Thanks for any help.

  1. Using the three different whites already in your tiles, design a blind in alternating stripes or block panel [of each white] to construct a very individual blind.  The type of material/fabric you choose is almost limitless and with so many colours in aluminium venetian blinds you could choose your colours and perhaps a black blade every fourth or eight blade to lift the effect.  I think with a little thought you will tie it all together very nicely and with a base of neutrals you can use ONE colour [red or black or green, etc] to accentuate the trim and feel of your new bathroom. These, of course can be changed quite easily [towels, shower curtain, mats, etc] with a whim or the season. The choice is yours. Good luck!  PS  If all else fails and you are still not happy, as a last resort, all those surfaces can be painted very successfully.


  2. You could put teal blinds in. Teal seems to go with a lot of colors. Also, if you didn't want to have teal, you could get red ones.

  3. Add some Red, it will distract the eyes. Red bathmat, red towels, red shower curtain, a vase of red roses etc etc etc.

  4. Go with a lighter color for the blinds because dark colors show the dust the worst.  I would pick a color to match the trim around the windows - unless the trim is black.  I think if you could find or make some artwork that consisted of different tones of white with a little black that it would help tie all the colors together.  You might be able to find a panel of fabric that is white on white and sketch on a simple bamboo or Asian design in black and frame it.     Good luck.

  5. get bamboo ones.
