What color should I paint my bathroom that has a navy blue sink?

I have a navy blue sink, navy tiles in the tub area, and a white tub and toilet. The formica counter is also a bluish color. The problem is...I don't care for blue at all! I like warmer colors. Any recommendations for paint color? I'm really not very good with decorating!What color should I paint my bathroom that has a navy blue sink?
play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to help you imagine how the colors will look together. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family %26amp; color name, the ';painted'; rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

I think ';terra brun'; (# 6048) might be a good choice.





You can take a photo of your house %26amp; upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:

You can get color suggestions %26amp; for $5 they'll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.What color should I paint my bathroom that has a navy blue sink?
A sandy tan should look good with the navy and the white.It will also warm it up. A gray would work, but might look cold. A light shade of gold or a sage or celery green would look nice too. If the bathroom uses a shower curtain, find that first and choose a shade from it for your walls. If not, look for a piece of art and do the same.

I came up with a tan color or a mauve color.


Just make something navy blue and it will show the coordinating colors to use.
I think you should lean towards white. Or a light cream color. When we redo our front bathroom, I'm going to paint the walls blue, and the trim maybe white. A blue sink is pretty, but maybe the counters make it too much blue. A lighter color counter with a blue sink, thats pretty. Good luck.
With a bathroom with so much blue, you will not be able to hide it. My first suggestion would be to use white walls, a white shower curtain, and blue throw rugs.
A pale yellow looks great with blue and will stand out more then the blue, its a mood enhancing color and it will make the room appear larger
Go with white and make whatever is blue in your bathroom the accent colors. I think you will be much happier with white.
A nice sky blue would be lovely! (:


Or maybe some mosaic tiles would be even better?
try black.
