Decorating a Blue Bathroom

Bathroom

Thanks so much for all of your love on yesterday’s post! Given that it’s going to be near SEVENTY degrees here in Boston tomorrow (yep, in March!) I am loving all things flowers!

Now, onto a less cheerful issue: our bathroom. Ugh. Y’all, its bad. Real bad…it’s hard enough having one tiny 4’x4′ bathroom to serve as the master, guest, and hall bath, but throw in some bright blue tile with a black tile border, some hideous lighting & a light blue floor….ta da, you’ve got our bathroom! (insert horrified face here)

Given that we can’t “accidentally” demo the place (believe me, I’ve tried) or change any lighting, we’re working with what we’ve got. Luckily, we’ve got 12′ ceilings, a big bright (light!) window and white paint on the walls. So let’s look at some designer blue bathrooms to get inspired…

Based on all of the hours spent pouting research I’ve done, I’m going to stick with a white/gray/blue pallet. Think white linens, gray/blue accents, glass accessories & baskets for added texture…

Any tips for decorating an awful, rental bathroom space?! Help!
