Well, the bathroom is not attached to any other rooms so I chose not to match it with any other colours in the house, and I wanted the colours to be a bit bright and sunny for my stepson because he loves to play in the bath. Our bedroom is dark - chocolate brown curtains with an oriental sort of scroll duvet cover that is chocolate, gold, and black velvet in places. The living room is brown and red with earthy burnt oranges here and there and a giant Buddha from Sri Lanka and some other wooden sculptures. The kitchen is wood and chrome with marble tops with track lighting and all integrated appliances... very modern looking. The only real colour in there is a teal doormat and blue cushions on the chairs. The bathroom is very modern looking, as well, with the same wood and chrome and glass sort of feel that the kitchen has (only the kitchen is big and the bathroom is small), so country style decor is definitely out. That wouldn't look right at all. I'm thinking maybe the bright blue is bright enough now that I am looking at it, so I'm thinking now I might do some light beige accents and towels with the brighter blue. Still not sure!

I'm another person who doesn't like too many colours in a bathroom. I like it to feel serene. Ours has sort of duck egg blue painted walls, a white painted wooden plank floor and all white towels, bath mats, etc. Then I have some old blue glass apothecary bottles on a white shelf. We have a window too, so it's really light and nice. Oh, I also have a chandelier in there - DH was opposed to the idea at first, but I insisted and it looks SPECTACULAR!

Your bathroom sounds gorgeous! I wants!  :)
