Boring white bathroom suites. AAGGHHHH

The important thing is to avoid making a choice based on the current trend. It's all white at the moment, but colours could come back anytime soon. It just takes a few opinion formers to suggest colours are back, all the rage, and everyone starts to follow.

Doesn't that seem a strange thing to do, join a new forum and the first post you make is to bump up a thread that was last used 2yrs ago.

In my last house, I had an avocado suite and I put up beautiful Sanderson wallpaper with lilac tree pattern on it; the greens in the paper really complimented the avocado suite and it looked stunning. I am currently renovating a house and all the new suites will be white. I am removing coloured suites but they are really horrid; one is peach...YUK! I have predicted that coloured suites will return shortly just as everyone thought it was white or white.

I love avacado! But I recognise I'm alone, so I stick with white for the resale value. Doesn't mean the whole room has to be white though - coloured walls (apart from the tiling), and funky accessories are good...

Good on you for doing your own thing! None of us are brave enough :-)

The reason the newbie and I have made posts is because it is on 'Board of the Week' on the weekly mail from Martin, so we are just joining in.

In the 70s we had a new house with a turqoise green suite in one bathroom, and a pale blue suite in the en-suite bathroom. They were really fashionable at the time, but the bidet was the most sensible thing ever. It had a flat rim, and the water came from the rim round the top. Every bidet I have ever had since has had a rim like the edge of a sink - like sitting on a toilet without the seat - and a tap on the top digging in your back!

We are all white now.
