What is a good color to paint the walls of a bathroom that has pink and white tiles?

We have installed a new white vanity and sink. This is a typical 60's style home with pink and white tile in the tub area and halfway up the walls. The floor is solid white tile. The fixtures are chrome.What is a good color to paint the walls of a bathroom that has pink and white tiles?
I would just stick with a neutral color like white.What is a good color to paint the walls of a bathroom that has pink and white tiles?
Try tile paint
you can try a mauve or maroon, wine type paint to make it look romatic or go with a pale green or very light blue to make it look brighter, or just plain white with the accents any of the colors I mentioned. I think it would all look nice with the chrome faucets.
PINK
I would stick with white walls and punch up the room with black or dark gray towels and accessories. Put a border around the top of the tiles if you need to break up the color there.
I'd do a reaaally light shade of pink, random colours won't look good. You can always paint just one of the walls magnolia or something so it isn't too pink, if the bathrooms Q big it'd look good.
i would say white with a pink accent wall
Well, you could go subtle....and choose white, but if it has a vintage look to it, I'd go funky and do a light teal....really 60s it out!





You can always try tester paints (most stores will sell them to you for a couple bucks) and try out a few shades. Especially in a bathroom, its hard to tell what the color will look like (or if you'll like it) once the lighting and all the fixtures are there.





Plus, make sure you buy bathroom paint that is a semi-gloss. I painted a bathroom a couple years ago with spread satin and grew to loathe that room (I had to clean down the walls once a week!)





Good luck!
I'm gonna go out on a limb %26amp; guess that you actually don't want more pink. A really popular color combo right now is pink %26amp; brown. So maybe something like Sherwin Williams' ';swing brown';. If you don't want something that dark, then try a tan, like SW's ';captivating cream.';





A grayish-green would also look good, like ';underseas'; or ';gray area';.
gray , silver or black
