Trying to decide bathroom cabinet color...having to mix warm & cool colors

Michelle
hace 11 años
I'm doing a very inexpensive bathroom makeover. I hated the wood cabinets, so I painted them white. Now the cabinets stick out like a soar thumb against my cream counter tops. I like cool colors, specifically blues and greys. I painted the walls Behr Ash Violet. I'm hoping to find a shower curtain with some grey & yellow, grey towels. I'd like to paint the cabinets a neutral light grey, but I'm afraid it will clash too much with the counter & tile floors. Any thoughts about the cabinets or anything else? I really appreciate the help!

    Here is a picture using drapes as shower curtains! Double click on the image to see the entire curtain and what a nice effect it has.

      First, I would add some fun knobs to your cabinet. Second, don't rule out replacing the vanity countertop--cultured marble with an integrated sink is very inexpensive. That said, I think the white looks fine, but if it is really bothering you, you could paint them the same color as your walls or match the paint color to your countertop. Or you could risk painting the insets of the cabinet the grey color and the raised parts the cream color. BUT, if you want to use yellow as an accent color, I would be inclined to minimize the cream color and go with grey for the cabinet.

      You could tie all the colors together with your accessories. Also, I would get some really unique knobs, bc you only need two you can splurge a little:

      Great knobs! And don't forget to check out Anthropologie. They have great knobs, and affordable too. I would paint your cabinets a dark gray. That would complement your cream counters and contrast the wall color.

      @Timeless--The owl is from Anthropologie and just $12. The 2nd knob is only $8. Talk about bang for your buck!

      I love the shower curtains! I think painting the insets grey and getting funky doorknobs, while really cute, may* be a little too eclectic for me. I do love the last two, especially the crystal ones. I was going to go with brushed satin bars...just so everything would match, but I think you may be right about trying something different! Any thoughts on another accent color? Yellow is the only one I can picture for some reason. And KB, you're right...just checked out those marble vanity tops and they are cheap! You guys are great...thanks so much!

      I just replaced some outdated cultured marble vanity tops and what an improvement for minimal cost. I suggest that you paint your vanity about 2 shades darker than your walls. I love to use drapes as shower curtains because they come in a variety of sizes making it possible to hang them higher. Just pop a curtain liner behind the drapes to protect them from moisture .

      Where's the best place to find an inexpensive marble vanity top, and do I need a splash guard if it's against the wall? I think drapes are a really creative idea...but I'm looking for a curtain to bring in my accent color. Yellow or ?

      Don't know where least expensive place would be, but I would definitely get a splash guard. If you replace the countertop, you could also use aqua/turquoise, fuschia, orange or lime green as an accent color.

      Aqua/turquoise is the accent color in my living room...so that could be perfect!

      Huh. I hate that way too often it takes my seeing something to really get it! lol I like the use of two different panels! Although, I'd have to have a double rod for that.

      True, you would have to get a double rod or 2 tension rods. Just a suggestion????
