Blue and White Bathrooms?

Posted by joyce_6333 (My Page) on

I'm envisioning light blue and white in our new powder room - white wainscotting, vintage fixtures, blue walls. Would love to see pictures if anyone has these colors. Thanks!

Bill, that's a great blue! Here I go again, in that place called "indecision"!

Thanks, Jeannine -- what a great website! I'll be spending a few hours there!

RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

That's a wonderful color combination. I don't have pictures but have seen that combo many times and love it. You can also do a blue green (light light teal) which is also very lovely!

RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

My bathroom is difficult to photograph, but you can get an idea of the colors in this photo below. The upper walls are light blue, lower walls are light tan, and floor is white with blue insets.

Oh, my, such beautiful bathrooms!

acountryfarm -- That is exactly the look I was hoping to see! I love the addition of black. The little guy in te shower is a cute! What do you mean "6 of our boys". How many do you have?

Callie: hope you don't mind that I looked at your other pictures. Love that marble! Sigh! And could you give me info on your mirror? Is there storage behind?

Thanks.
Joyce

RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

joyce - Thank you ! That would be six of my 10 sons, I also have 1 daughter. Their bathroom has 2 of everything except tub. I loved the way it turned out.

The other baths are white w/the same black counters and floor, yet each is unique and has its own accent. If you would like to see them as well let me know.

RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

We also have a blue & white bath, finished about 3 years ago. We still love it!

Annkathryn, could you please tell me the specific name of the tan paint?


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

The tan paint is Mohair, which is Benjamin Moore if I remember correctly. If I can find the can in my garage and see that it's not BM Mohair, I'll let you know.

Joyce,

This Crown Point bathroom incorporates some of your wish list, even though it is a darker blue.

Hi Joyce--

Thanks for the kind words on the bathroom. Blue and white is a great color combo for a bath, and I think you are on a good design track! Our mirror is a medicine cabinet made by Robern. It has tons of storage, outlets inside so you can store electric things out of sight, and a swing out maginifying mirror inside that is great for makeup. I love it-- pricey, but worth it.

RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

Thanks, Annkathryn.

RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

We have new wainscoting but it's not white, it's natural wood. But just another photo to add to your inspirational gallery.

Sweeby-- This is the first time I've seen your bathroom! SOMEBODY'S doing a bang up job with that herringbone, wrapping the corners and all! Excellent job, and a beautiful bathroom!!


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

Here is my master...mostly white, but with blue walls. It stills need some pictures on the wall.


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

Everyone's bathrooms are just beautiful.

alexamd- wonderful wall color.


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

Alexamd: What is that wonderful blue color?


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

Thank you! The wall color is Benjamin Moore Nantucket Fog. It is also sold under the name Santorini Blue. I don't know why BM has two names for the same color. I discovered it by getting samples of each at separate times. When I got home, I noticed that the number was the same!


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

I think I'm going to save that color name as well for this summer when I tear apart MY bathroom! :-)


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

Bill, I can't wait to see YOUR bathroom renovation. I hope you are going to post pictures of it.


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

I post pics of the rest of my work, you think this would slip by? LOL

Not likely!! :-)


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

Here's ours (not yet 100% done):

I guess it is sort of greenish blue, though...

Gorgeous Carolan! I love your peaked arch and aqua accent tiles, and that tub deck and skirt are simply beautiful.


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

Alexamd, do you have pictures of your shower? I also love the wall color, and would like to see the your shower tile, if you happen to have a pic :) thanks.


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

Ugh...I don't think I do. Let me go through my old pictures and see if I have any that I can post.


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

I've committed this one to memory (and tivo-ed the episode). floor and wall tile is either carrara or calcutta.

RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

I know you said light blue but I couldn't resist putting in a bid for dark blue (obviously we have a way to go here).

RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

beautiful bathrooms everyone! alexamd & donka - love the double vanities in your pictures. it looks like yours is custom alexa? we're trying to figure out if we can find one that isn't custom or if we'll be adding something else to our cabinetmaker's list... do either of you have details on those vanities? if not custom, brand would be very helpful, as would the length of it. thanks!


 o
RE: Blue and White Bathrooms?

Yes, mine is custom. Our cabinet maker did it. Off hand, I don't remember the price. It is painted BM Dove White. The pictures that donka posted are from Pottery Barn...they were in my binder of inspiration pictures. I believe my vanity is 72" long. I hope this helps.

Here's an old pic of our b&w bath

Can I bump this?

Would love to see what everyone has been up to since 2009!
