Blue Bathrooms 5 Ways
Whether you are moving into a new house or looking to spruce up your current residence, you can never go wrong with adding some style to the bathroom. Color theory indicates that blue is the color of the mind and is essentially soothing; it affects us mentally, rather than the physical reaction we have to red. Strong blues will stimulate clear thought and lighter, soft blues will calm the mind and aid concentration. Consequently it is serene and mentally calming. It is the color of clear communication.
I talk about different project ranging from $15 - $1000 + so this article will suit any budget.
Blue Shower Tile
Adding new tile can dramatically change the look and feel of a bathroom. I love the light blues paired with the creamy whites which are complimented by the natural elements of wood and plant. The overall feeling of this bathroom is tropical spa.
Cost: It costs about $25 per square foot to tile a shower, which includes the cost of the tiles, installation and other materials. In total, the average cost to tile a shower typically falls between $450 and $1,000.
Blue Tile Floors
Here we opt for another tile project, but a different part of the bathroom. By keeping the walls white it gives the blue patterned tiles a chance to shine. The vibes for this bathroom are definitely Santorini, Greece.
Blue Paint
The owners of this bathroom have opted for a decadent, Victorian vibe. The rich blue of the walls feels very luxurious when paired with gold fixtures. If you want to keep it more low key, you could keep the location of the paint to the upper half how they have it here, and just do everything else white.
Cost: Painting is one the cheaper methods to add a new feel, with the average cost to paint a bathroom is $150 to $400 for a small bathroom or $250 to $1,500+ for a master bathroom.
Blue Sink
If your bathrooms colors will go, (think whites, neutrals, etc) consider painting the sink! You could diy it or hire an artist to come in and use a porcelain painting kit to add whatever design you fancy.
Cost: It will vary depending on what paints you want but kits start at just $15!
Blue Shower Curtain
Perhaps the easiest method of the bunch would be to simply update your shower curtain! This is a huge part of the bathroom and can take up the majority of the visuals in a smaller bathroom. So having one you love could be the difference between loving and hating your bathroom.
Cost: This will be anywhere from $15 and up.
