Hall Bathroom Inspiration, Revisited

A while back I mentioned that we decided not to go with the beachy feeling for our hall bathroom, but instead decided to go modern. I showed you our new bath accessories, but I thought I would go ahead and share our new inspiration for that room. We are painting the living room, dining room, and hallway a neutral grey and we want to bring that into the bathroom as well. Since it is a pretty small space, I figured we could do a fun wall treatment in there without all the taping and measuring being too much of a pain. So, I saw this photo of a shower curtain on Pinterest and decided that it would look great as a paint treatment for the walls:


Those are pretty much the exact colors that will be used for our bathroom walls and probably about the same size stripes. Everything in the room will be either white or grey, with the exception of the black tissue cover and soap pump, plus I would like to bring in a punch of bright color through either a bath rug or some art on the wall. I haven't decided if I want to hang anything over the stripes or let them be the centerpiece and bring the color in with a rug. I think I will have to wait and see the stripes before I know if I can bring myself to cover them up with art.

This is what our vanity currently looks like:


We are going to eventually paint it white and get a new countertop, sink, and faucet. We also need to replace the vanity light. It is a brassy gold fixture that really needs to go. We were thinking something like this light would work nicely:


We are also thinking that a white porcelain vessel sink would look great in there. Not sure what shape we like best, but here are a few ideas:

I'm also thinking that since there isn't a lot of floor space maybe we could splurge on a fun mosaic tile of some sort. As for the countertops, I am definitely thinking either quartz or recycled glass. Quartz especially has a really nice, clean, modern look to it. Here are a couple of examples of quartz in both grey and white:



So those are our lofty goals for the front bathroom. Aside from perhaps painting and getting a new light, I doubt any of this will be done any time soon, but I will certainly keep you posted.
