Instructions

    • 1

      Paint the walls in the bathroom the same dramatic color as the toilet and sink. Use a semigloss to protect the walls from moisture damage.

    • 2

      Paint the exterior surface of the freestanding tub a matching color. Prime the ceramic surface of the tub with an oxide primer, and then use a latex paint.

    • 3

      Brighten the space with white textiles. Place a deep-pile white area rug and fluffy white towels in the room to contrast with the blue fixtures.

    • 4

      Whitewash any wood cabinetry in the room, and accent the room with white ceramic containers.

    • 5

      Hang soft white sheers on windows and over the tub or shower area to bring brightness higher in the space.

    • 6

      Decorate the area above the towel rack with a white-framed piece of artwork. Choose a black and white photograph that has a hand-painted color accent or a floral photograph of your favorite white flower.

    • 7

      Frame a plain mirror with a matching whitewashed frame or an ornate carved frame painted a glossy white.

    • 8

      Personalize the bathroom with large, white-painted letters to reflect the homeowner’s initials. Buy the letters at a craft store and paint them yourself for an inexpensive custom touch.
