DIY Bathroom Painting

April 2nd 2009 | Posted by SR

One of the best ways to rejuvenate the look of a tired bathroom is to repaint it. The general rule for bathroom painting is to use light, size-enhancing colours as these will give the illusion of a larger room.

Bathroom painting combinations can give the effect of harmony, peace and comfort so you should use the colours you desire most. Colours like pink and white are popular choices for the bathroom as are light shades of blue, purple and yellow as they have the dual effect of warmth and coolness. Light green is also another popular bathroom painting choice.

Here are some bathroom painting tips you can apply to your own home:

  • Bright colours like orange and red give the effect of brightness and freshness and can boost your physical energy.
  • The use of contrasting colours in the bathroom can work in your favour if you want to give the illusion of a larger space. Using light colours with contrasting dark colours in small areas will help you achieve this effect.
  • Using light colours has the added advantage of clearly showing any dirty marks so they can be cleaned before they set and become difficult to remove.
