If you are in the process of remodeling a bathroom and unsure of what direction to take the color scheme, let me kindly offer my unsolicited opinion.
YES to light and bright colors. Airy! Fresh! Clean!
YES to deep and moody colors. Dramatic! Impactful! Sophisticated!
And a hearty NO to any middling, halfhearted color in between. Soupy green? Pastel yellow? BROWN? Anything that shares a hue with a bodily fluid should be out of the running. Naturally.
Of course, this is just my humble expert opinion. (I’m not an expert on bathrooms, but I am an expert on having opinions). If you love your soupy green bathroom, you go ahead and rock it hard honey.
This before bathroom was a little pea soupish, but truly not that bad. And I quite like that sink.
Oh, but what a difference being basked in brightness makes. Picture me with a love-struck grin and heart eyes.
This bathroom remodel was actually a job by a team of design professionals over at Décor Aid; but it doesn’t take an expert to see that it’s 1000% awesome. Even with the combination of tile backsplash to the floor and full marble shower surround, it doesn’t look busy, just beautiful.
Hope you’re having an awesome Monday!

I mean, come on! It’s unfair to drag queens!
Surely EVERYONE in 1953 were bathing in half light. It was a romantic feel! Poor mother never had it so good with all that grouting to clean. No gym for her! No sirree! Her arms were like Popeye’s and she’d smack you into next week for daring to try to ask her, “….er Mom? You do know your stick foundation colour is actually orange, not nude, don’t you……?”
