go wild! bathroom restyle
Hi everyone,
The bathroom is next on the list, struggling with the layout of our bathroom, please see below pictures of our current magnolia cluttered bathroom.
I’m thinking some kind of dark/ black marble tile at the back of the bath, then a light stone colour either end of the bath,
I can’t vision this with the window?
Do you think this Would this look ok?
Where the door is would you Tile all the way round it? Behind the door I was just going to paint - off white (Victorian lace to be precise) and put a heated towel rail
I’ve also attached some of my inspo pics
I also want a combi unit for the toilet and sink so we have storage. Not sure what colour would be best?
Let me know your thoughts xx

Colour for tiny but bright bathroom?
Comments (43)I would definitely go for a bold warm colour like a dark grey either a paint or a textured wallpaper. Both work really well in small cloakrooms with white fixtures. Put a big glam mirror above the sink and a pendant light too. I tested a new Valspar colour today called Sooty Lashes which I'm about to use in a bathroom project.

Comments (9)Hello Sanaa, I'm very glad to be inspiring!! : ) ) This is the idea to offer ideas that the client has not thought of, so you have a number of ideas to work with, and that you love them.. So that is brilliant! .. You will have to tell your friends in Dubai so they can hire me.. : ) Okay so moving on to the points.. I wasn't sure if you would be able to get the same teal runner again ... I think there is a possibility you can find something in teal that is approximately 3 times the size for this particular placement.. If however you want something the bed sits on... Then think about something that is slightly wider than the bed.. Either something that the bed sits on entirely.. So you have rug showing all the way around.. This negates the need for the sheepskin but alternatively, you could have something that is smaller and wider so it shows off at the foot and sides of the bed... Does that make sense to you? I'll try to find a pic to add at the bottom to show you the two placements.. There may be the possibility to move the runner to your bathroom? So you have a little continuity here, depends on your preference and size of bathroom... I didn't know you were thinking of moving the tv but the door walks straight into where you would place the unit.. so I think you should leave entrances free unless there is a lot of space... Here there is a short wall and doorway into the bathroom so it would be really close to the entrance door.. Try it and see what you think... I still like the dresser under the 3 windows.. but try them both and see what you like best.. I'd still have the chair angled in that corner.. You can sit with the door open if you didn't want to be outside on the balcony.... It could be a nice alternative... If you removed the tv, there isn't an obvious placement unless you left it above the cabinet if you chose to place it there.. Unless it has a bracket that can pull out and angle... In that case you could situate it on the left wall (from the bed) Right if you are standing at doorway.. Then it is slightly closer to the bed and can be angled accordingly.. You could then have a slim floor length mirror leaning on the wall or mounted where tv is currently... Think the chair you can make work for now with the sheepskin on it.. Unless you happen to see something... It doesn't have to be a priority right now you can always get it later to add to the room.. I like the greener lamp.. but again try it out.. If you are going to paint the wall or wallpaper then you might want to decide soon, so you could take back the colour you don't have or even have them both... Nobody says they have to be absolutely identical... They are the same shape but even if they were not.. Sometimes it is nice to have things that "nod" to the design of the other but not in quite the same way.. Had a quick look for Juju in UAE but I am certain you could find something.. There are online places that I am sure would have them or maybe an African store that could source for you.. Lots of places here in UK and London but.. shipping might be a cost! For the ceiling light it needs to be a bit bigger... Something that fits the size of the room and can even be a teal shade... Possibly shaped to coordinate with the bedside lamps... If you didn't paint the rear wall.. and have a patterned rug, you could think about a really dramatic paper.. Hicks Hexagon large could be really amazing too.. It is available in 2 sizes from Cole & Son.. Could still have Juju in a white or creamy colour... Have included something to compliment bed with warm accents.. and something that is bolder altogether.. You would then need to cut back the teal rug and choose something that compliments the flooring.. Looking forward to seeing your images later on.. : ))...See MoreBefore and After of Bathroom and Cloakroom
Comments (19)shari39 yes you're right. I've done this a couple of times now. Just attach it with a bead of clear silicon around the edge of the glass, ie. hold the glass in place, and then apply the bead around the edge....See MoreFinishing off bathroom (colours)

3 years agoI love your first image with the dark brown textured tiles, we had a very similar combination in our old bathroom. I think I would tile all over. Can you afford to go bespoke for the unit? You obviously have boxed in pipes going to the bath so you can't just sit a vanity in front?

3 years agoThey are! Great, you've spoken to a plumber already and it can work! If you're just going dark on the one wall maybe a walnut/wenge vanity? If you go for a 900mm you can leave a small gap between the bath and vanity which I think will look better? What size/shape bath were you going for? PS I'm not recommending the tap position in the first pic!
