You care, right? (just pretend) This is the shower curtain -- (link) - ty97 Dec 3, 11:00 [flickr] 28
- I wouldn't base wall colour on shower curtain colour, because I change shower curtains more often than I paint. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 3, 11:04 1
  - trivia: My shower curtains are always, always blue and white. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:06
- I agree with Andie. the curtain is more vibrant than I had imagined. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:02
- I stand by my suggestion. - znufrii Dec 3, 11:01 20
  - so his bathroom can look like a clown sneezed in it ? -- nm - decline Dec 3, 11:10 2
    - no, that would be if you threw a bunch of rainbow paint splatters on the wall - znufrii Dec 3, 11:33 1
      - = your Man Cave? -- nm - Diva Dec 3, 11:34
  - i really would not mix blue with those warms colours. -- nm - Andie Dec 3, 11:03 16
    - totally agreed, blue would be horrid. Am starting to wonder if znu is colorblind. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:04 15
      - trees and sky, is what I'm thinking. -- nm - znufrii Dec 3, 11:05 14
        
        if you were just sticking to blues and greens, sure. but not with a whole gamut of reddish earth tones. -- nm - Andie Dec 3, 11:06 1
        
        or, light blue and brown. nice. -- nm - Andie Dec 3, 11:07
        
        trees aren't orange. the bathroom will vibrate. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:05 11
        
        yeah, that's wrong. - znufrii Dec 3, 11:08 8
        
        hello, I grew up in New England. that curtain doesn't just "have" orange on it. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:09 7
        
        which is why your assertion that "trees aren't orange" was confusing, when it's obviously false. -- nm - znufrii Dec 3, 11:10 6
        
        fair enough. But that curtain still will look like shit next to blue. - loosilu Dec 3, 11:11 5
        
        not the blue I have in mind. -- nm - znufrii Dec 3, 11:13 4
        
        adding a contrasting colour, when you already have so many, will just be way too busy -- nm - Andie Dec 3, 11:16 3
        
        you're not so much adding a contrasting color as you are adding a contrasting tone. - znufrii Dec 3, 11:22 2
        
        I think you need to google what a "tone" is, because that's not it. :) - loosilu Dec 3, 11:24
        
        feel free to do that in your bathroom. :) -- nm - Andie Dec 3, 11:22
        
        Sunsets are! - Dr.Vermin Dec 3, 11:07 1
        
        sunsets don't have blue. HA! -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:08
- i'd go for a nice sand colour wall with that. it's vibrant, you don't want to compete. -- nm - Andie Dec 3, 11:01 3
  - In that case, what do you do for towels? -- nm - ty97 Dec 3, 11:13 2
    - pick one colour from the curtain. the deep red, the green. or a deeper beige. the curtain has many colours so you don't want to add more. - Andie Dec 3, 11:15 1
      - exactly this. it will look awesome. I like the green best, personally. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:18
LIR: Matching with wall color. What I meant was, for example, if you have a mauve wall, you don't want to put something with a green frame on it. - con_carne Dec 3, 11:00 4
- Renters aren't allowed to alter the wall colour (or are required to paint it back to white when moving out) .. - Beryllium Dec 3, 11:03 1
  - ~ I see a rental and I want to paint it black ~ -- nm - Dr.Vermin Dec 3, 11:05
- actually I would, but I'm wild that way. :) -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 11:03 1
