Help green bathroom suite!

donnalou

Next month I'm moving into a lovely little cottage:j but there is one problem it has a avocado green bathroom suite. the toilet is seperate but still is a lovely green colour and the walls are painted green too!

Has anyone got any advice? Shall I just paint the walls white or go for a more funky colour?

I am only renting but am planning to stay there for a quite a while.

Thanks in advance
Donna

Something wrong with Avocado Green suites? :rotfl:
As it's a cottage then a pure, brilliant white will look out of place, IMHO. Try "apple white" if it's still made, white with a hint of colour, in this case green, which should fit in better with the "cottagey" look. Don't forget to ask the landlord's permission.

When I moved in to my place it had a sky blue bathroom suite with blue rag rolled walls. Special! Now all the walls and tiles are white with silver acessories it very livable with.

Just try not to think about the colour - read a book!

I agree with this. We moved into house with grey bathroom suite, grey floor, blue walls. Suite was in too good condition to replace.

Have tiled bathroom walls white, grey/white mosaic vinyl on floor, white bath panel and toilet seat and room is completely transformed. Brought in brightly coloured towels to take away clinical look.

Had this prob in a house I rented - best thing to do is go with the green. If you try and avoid it, it kind of draws the eye even more!

What I did was paint the walls in a really nice mint Kitchen and Bathroom paint (recommend Wilkinsons), get a matching bright mint and white shower curtain, white big fluffy towels, mint bathmat etc, and white wooden accessories - all the white and mint muted the avocado, and helped it feel fresh and light.

HTH.
