Have you seen this bathroom? http://welcometoheardmont.com/2011/03/master-bath-phase-5-the-big-reveal/<br /><br />It is LOVELY, and it has the yellow curtain and grey walls. Also, I'm not sure how a runner would look...but you seem to have an eye for things like that, so trust your gut! I'm sure it will look beautiful just like the rest of your house.

I'm terrible at decisions. But I'd say to go with the yellow chevron to add a pop of color in there. Your other bathroom is black and white, so I think it would be nice to have some color in this bathroom. But I don't live in your house so this is entirely up to you. <br /><br />Art ideas?

I'd just watch out for the scale of the fabric print--shower curtain prints generally have a pretty large scale (I think? Or maybe just the ones I'm drawn to?) and anything too small might seem busy. <br /><br />You'll make the right choice! :)Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08552928159495568506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658324608798777023.post-15692949090064815002012-04-19T21:24:05.245-05:002012-04-19T21:24:05.245-05:00If you hang the shower curtain too high, won't...If you hang the shower curtain too high, won't you have an issue with lighting? (Provided any guest wishes to utilize your shower...)<br /><br />I would tend toward materials that would lighten up that end of the bathroom, since there is no natural light. (That's probably because I'm so blind that I have a hard time seeing very well in dimly lit rooms.)Melodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659475503140848717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658324608798777023.post-51164795337945792042012-04-19T21:22:23.948-05:002012-04-19T21:22:23.948-05:00Im just not a polka dot fan.

If you get tired of it you can always switch it out again, hehe :-p<br />Perhaps you'll just be one of those people who switch shower curtains as often as some change throw pillows...it's just fabric that can be easily changed. No big deal.<br /><br />One suggestion I have is...maybe hang the shower curtain last? Pick your color scheme for towels, artwork, rug, etc. first. You seem to get stuck on picking the shower curtain and don't get to finishing the rest of the bathroom.<br /><br />I like the idea about the molding around the mirror. I've been wanting to do that to mine forever, but have been too chicken too. I think you should do it, and give a detailed tutorial how you did it :-)Heart and Havenhttp://www.heartandhaven.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658324608798777023.post-70088255678033092712012-04-19T11:46:37.601-05:002012-04-19T11:46:37.601-05:00I think the black polka dot would look good with t...I think the black polka dot would look good with the rug.

I also think a fun light fixture would add a little something extra to the room.
