    I would go blue, but depending on the shade of blue and the size of the bathroom, it could make the bathroom look smaller, if the bathroom is small then go light like the pink, but it also depends on what nick nacks you plan to have in there to decide the wall color,
    maybe “after you set-up (decorate) your bathroom the way you want it try putting alittle paint on the wall of each color and decide what looks best.
    I hope Ive helped :o)
    good luck and congratulations on the apartment ♥Melody♥

    1] paint light blue background
    2] paint vines etc like a jungle
    3] paint heads of animals, birds, or whatever peeking out
    Look up jungle shower curtains online - you can get some great design ideas! Nurse Susan

    i’d stay away from painting the walls pink - light pink is very gendered (as opposed to, say, fuschia, which can come off as bold and modern). blue or green would be good choices, but don’t assume you have to paint all the walls. one fun thing to do is use tiny nails to mount a piece of trim about 36″ up, parallel to the floor, all the way around the room. paint either above it or below it a color, and leave the rest white. if you’re feeling dexterous, using masking tape to make blue and green stripes could be really striking. or paint one wall completely as an accent wall, and leave the rest plain. or just paint the tub alcove. or paint patterns of squares or rectangles on the wall behind the vanity mirror.

    no matter what color paint you chose, be sure to use high-gloss paint to deter mildew.

    another cool decor trick: wall decals. there are some amazing ones here: if you can’t afford the decals, use them as inspiration for creating your own stencils. architheque
