Child Pink Canvas
Bridge Child’s Room/Guest Room and Shared Bath?
We are buying a brand new house – blank canvas! I have two rooms and a shared bath that I need help decorating. The first room is a 3 year old girls and of course her favorite colors are pink and purple. The second room is a guest room. I have white furniture and a black bed in there. The shared bath has large chocolate brown tile in the bath and on the floor. I need help with bedding and a color scheme for all the rooms so that they coordinate and the bathroom is neither babyish or boring. Also, please don’t suggest the pink/chocolate combo for the bath. I think that design has been way over done and is on it’s way out. Thanks for your help!
A good ‘bridge’ in any design can be achieved by using a neutral color. Consider the bathroom. If the tiles are chocolate brown, you could paint the walls a warm beige. Now, that may sound a little boring, but think of it as the ‘foundation’ when applying make-up. (We’ll come back to the bathroom in a minute).
For your daughter’s room, you could use a lighter shade of the beige in combination with another color on the walls (maybe in wide, alternating, vertical stripes) then accessorize with the pink/purple. (Remember: too much of a good thing … like a favorite color … can be toxic. By accessorizing with her favorite colors in a more neutral room, the look stays ‘fresher’ longer and she won’t grow as tired of the colors so soon … which equals less work for you!) A soft leaf green would help the accent colors come to life. If you haven’t ruled out using wallpaper, perhaps you can find one that incorporates all of the colors in a ‘girlie’ pattern.
For the guest room, you may want to do a wall color similar to the bathroom tile. Both black and white furniture pieces will really ‘pop’ against chocolate walls, especially if you have crown molding, base molding, etc. to frame it out. ANY accent color can be used in the guest room, now. Perhaps using beige bedding (with a tone-on-tone pattern) would look nice with serene green throw pillows. (Use whatever color you like, but keep ‘pattern’ in mind in order to introduce a variety in the otherwise solid colored space).
Back to the bathroom:
You need color and texture in here now. Consider adding some plants for an organic feel. The same green from the other two rooms could be the color of the towels. Try rolling some towels up and displaying them in a ‘spa’ basket near the tub. Add candles … you may even want to try using deep red ones. Towels and candles are easy and inexpensive to change out as the seasons (or your preferences) change.
Congrats on the new home!
