Hello all. I am in the middle of a bathroom re-do, and switched gears from my original plan. I chose a small black (says espresso, but is black) vanity, with a vessel sink (crackle look) with a bamboo style single faucet. I was going for a relaxing spa like feel, so I was going to choose a blue-green wall color and use the deep blue-green towels I already have. Well, we could NOT find a blue-green wall color we liked that went with our ceramic tile, so we chose a BM color called Fairway Oaks, which is a chocolate brown. I love it, but now I have to choose a new shower curtain, etc. I need ideas (color scheme, can I keep the blue-green towels, etc.) The tile is pretty neutral--kind of off white with pale brown. (Kind of looks like natural stone.) Also, I will be haning a few white shelves (I think) above the toilet. The vanity is black. Should the mirror above the vanity be black also? (or can it be white?) Thanks, Pam

I would stay with a black mirror to match vanity. I love black and brown together but don't go too dark on the wall color. Do you have a lot of light in the bathroom? That would be a deciding factor in how dark your wall color is.
