Need ideas for bathroom walls!
I have no idea what to do with this bathroom. My house is very colorful and eclectic. I have a huge bathroom but a small budget. This paneling is killing me. I love all the styles of wallpaper I have found on this app. Not sure what colors to use with this color of wood.

ebrushi You may consider painting the paneling to white colour...then you can choose the wallpaper which goes with white

Patricia Gold Paint paneling white so it looks more up to date.
Replace mirror for much larger one and update your lighting.
Remove red chair from next to tub.
Remove white ball hanging over toilet bowl.
Change curtains for shutters or valance.
Paint walls a soothing blue/gray or add the wallpaper you would like.
Hope this helps,best of luck!

keistenh Wrong pic on that last one. I like these patterns. Maybe I can do some stenciling. I just need a few color options to go with the paneling. Thanks for all the replies!

carole those would both work,and i like them both too!!but then so would green,your pink one might clash with the paneling,that usually gives an orangy glow,the brown/bleu i think is too dark!!you got the right idea because the other choices have white in it!!and that will make it work,stenceling is not as hard as it looks but be patient,let the first layer dry!!!!!!!!!

rinqreation I really love wood, but in this case I'd paint it. Black stain it (or the darkest brown you can find), so the grain shows through. High gloss. Then all paint/color/stenciling you do will look much fresher.
