What paint color?
We have a greenish/turquoise/slate floor in our late '60s ranch. What color should I paint the guest "half bath" off the foyer. Oak wood and tan/cream countertop,

olldbobbi Well, the picture you've attached is showing a pinkish beige color. But going with your description, I would find a light turquoise for the paint color and use black towels and accessories.

Rio Brewster If you are daring, try to pull the burgundy/red out of the floor. A rich color in a small space could be lovely. I'd say to try the turquoise, but if the oak cabinets are that honey golden color and the counters are cream, that most likely won't work. You could try charcoal grey too.

Rio Brewster can you post a pic of the bath? If the cabinet is dark, or could be painted dark, then the turquoise might work.

Rio Brewster is the cabinet the same color as the crown?

Carolina Photo To Go LLC I would do either the same color or antique white. In a small space you do not want to be too dark. You could do accent towels in a light turquoise. That would be great. I would also get a frame for the mirror. A frame really makes the bathroom look so much nicer. You could probably have the existing mirror cut and take it to a frame shop or even Michaels does custom frames.

anitajoyce A nice grey or tan that's in the tile would looke nice in the space.
