Decorating
A Bathroom |
|
|
Question
-- Our bathroom is long and narrow, 10 feet by less than four feet. As you stand at the door, straight ahead is the toilet with a window above it. (Not a great focal point!) To the right are the sink and cabinets in oak, then the shower.
How to decorate? We prefer paint rather than wallpaper.
Answer
-- Paint is an amazing decorating tool. It's quite remarkable how the right
color and pattern can visually alter a room. Horizontal stripes will keep the eye moving around the room, and they aren't difficult to paint. I would paint wide stripes on the long window wall and two side walls, leaving the wall with the vanity and shower plain. The horizontal stripes should be at least eight inches wide, but you could make them as large as 16 to 20 inches. The fatter the stripes, the less taping there is to do. Use a level and chalk line to keep the stripes straight and even. Choose
colors that suit your style. Navy blue and white is a classic combination that is fresh and lively. Pink and chartreuse is young and happy, black and gray stripes will produce a dramatic setting. Make the window important with a
colorful blind that matches one of the stripes and that's where your eye will go.
