Does anyone want to help me decide on paint colors for my bathroom?

Asked by ANef_is_Enuf (26839points) July 30th, 2010

I am obsessing over painting my bathroom lately, but I’m having trouble making a decision. It’s not awful, it’s actually a nice color, I just don’t want to look at it anymore.

Right now it is a sage green with a little bit darker green painted over it with a textured roller. It has oak trim and chair rails and the tub/vanity and toilet are sort of an eggshell/off white.

I plan to paint the bathroom a neutral shade of beige or tan (my house has a TON of color, I need a few neutral rooms.) My problem is with the trim. I want to paint it white – but I’m assuming that will clash with my fixtures. I don’t have the money or the desire to replace my entire bathroom, so will that force me to paint the trim in something that matches the vanity? Or would white and off-white be alright together?
Another color completely? What are your thoughts?

Please don’t jump down my throat about painting the wood.. this house has tons and tons of natural woodwork that has never been painted. Honestly I’m tired of being a slave to the woodwork, trying to match every paint I choose to compliment the trim in the house is a nightmare. If you really think it’s best to just leave it, I’m willing to consider it.

I just need some ideas!
