Blue Bathroom Ideas
- Put up floral blue wallpaper How pretty would a floral blue wallpaper be in your bathroom? It adds a feminine touch and will completely transform how your bathroom looks. You can put it on one wall to create a sweet accent wall or put it on all your walls.
- Add blue shiplap on your walls If you’re aiming for a coastal bathroom design, shiplap is for you. You can put it in big bathrooms, like your master, or in a small powder room that is for your guests. Painting it an ocean blue shade and using silver and white accents will complete your theme.
- Use blue starburst floor tiles Blue tile is a great way to bring color to your bathroom floor. If you don’t want it to match your blue cabinets exactly, go for a tile with a pattern. We’re loving starburst patterns if you’re up for a playful print.
- Incorporate a matte blue wall tile One way to add a touch of blue to your bathroom is with wall tile. Picking different sections of your bathroom to add it in, like in this photo, is great because it doesn’t require you to use it on all your walls. It acts more like a blue accent instead and is a cheaper design alternative.
- Have a statement blue shower A blue shower? Yes, please! An open shower design is perfect for this idea because the tile can be seen when you first walk in. Make sure it’s on your shower ceiling, your shower walls and the outside shower wall so it’s cave-like in appearance.
- Choose a grayish-blue paint If you want to incorporate blue into your bathroom, but you don’t want to spend a lot of money, consider using paint. Picking a shade that’s not too bright or too bold, like a grayish-blue. It’ll look amazing if you have white cabinets because they’ll pop once you paint your walls.
- Add blue LED lights Besides the normal lighting in your bathroom, add a strand of blue LED lights. Placing them below your countertop, cabinets or bathtub will give off a cool and futuristic vibe. It’s one way you can bring your bathroom to the next level.
- Add a blue pattern wallpaper to your ceiling Is bold your middle name? If so, find a blue pattern wallpaper and cover your bathroom ceiling with it. Then, paint your cabinets blue and add a blue backsplash around your tub or shower. For an even bolder design, choose one other color from your wallpaper to paint your walls as well.
- Add a blue bow front vanity Create a focal point in your bathroom with a blue vanity. Installing one in your kids’ bathroom or your own will add a splash of color. Plus, it’ll give your bathroom some character.
- Design a sky The sky’s the limit when it comes to designs you can achieve with the color blue. One whimsical idea is to use tile to create a sky on all your bathroom walls, complete with clouds. Keeping your sink, tub, toilet and towels sky blue will make your vision look more real.
- Create blue and white stripes If you love navy, but don’t want your entire bathroom to be that dark, play around with the idea of navy stripes. You can create them with subway tile. Have one row be navy and the next be white.
- Design a mermaid-inspired space You’ll feel like you’ve entered a mermaid paradise if you put up blue fish scale tiles. They create a magical look when they are used as backsplash or inside a shower. Finish off the design with a gold shower head and knobs.
- Invest in a blue cabinet Bring some blue storage into your bathroom. Adding a tall cabinet that you already have in your house or that you buy, can be a great asset to your space. You can put all of your towels inside and other bathroom accessories and it’ll look gorgeous.
- Use the same blue all over Think about going with a monochromatic design in your space. The first step is finding a shade of blue you love. Once you find it, paint your walls that color, find a countertop in that hue, some backsplash tiles and towels.
- Replace your window with a stain-glass window Instead of having a statement wall in your bathroom, have a statement window! Installing a stain-glass window that includes different shades of blues will create a wow factor. Put it behind your bathtub for an even magical design.
- Make it rustic with beams One way to make your blue bathroom more rustic is with wooden beams. The beams will look even better if your ceiling is the same blue color as your walls. Talk about a cool farmhouse design.
- Include a skylight If you love dark and moody blues, don’t be afraid to use one on your bathroom walls. One way you can bring some brightness if you go with that dark color is with a skylight. Having that beam of light coming from the ceiling will change your space.
- Paint your walls a soft blue If you want a bathroom that is relaxing, go with soft blue paint. To give it a more sophisticated vibe, stick with black fixings and hardware. The contrast between the light and dark colors will make it look more grownup instead of kiddish.
- Create an artsy blue backdrop Calling all artists: a bathroom that looks like brush strokes are on the walls is for you! Hanging up wallpaper with paint-like markings on it adds some playfulness to your space. You can use it all over your bathroom or just DIY an accent wall with it. If you aren’t a fan of wallpaper, you can paint something similar instead.
- Use blue hexagon tiles in your shower Get your blue on with geometric tile! Using a large, cool shape, like a hexagon, as your tile instead of rectangles will make everyone want to use your shower. It’ll create a dreamy appearance that looks magazine-worthy.

- Use aqua blue bathroom furniture Want to be daring? Add aqua pieces in your bathroom. They look especially pretty when they are next to light gray walls.

- Mix and match lots of shades of blue To make your bathroom’s design look like it was done by a professional, use more than one shade of blue.

Doing so will create interest and keep your bathroom from looking flat, which can happen when one color is used.

Having a pale blue wall and rich blue curtains will look really nice. Tie everything together by DIYing a gallery wall that’s filled with all kinds of artwork.
- Hang up blue curtains A simple and quick way to embrace the blue bathroom trend is with curtains. You can hang up sheer blue ones on your window so the sun shines through, or lush velvet ones if you want a more upscale look. The best part is, you can switch them out and change up the color and print whenever you want.
- Have random blue tile accents in your bathroom Sometimes a little touch of color is all your space needs. Including small areas of blue is one way you can include the color in your room. You can do so by adding it to your shower floor or even the cubby holes in your shower.
- Have fun with a chinoiserie pattern A chinoiserie pattern wallpaper isn’t something you see much in a bathroom, but if you decide to use it, it will be a charming choice. In fact, your bathroom will look straight-up dreamy. The key to pulling it off is to make everything else in your space subtle so the wallpaper can be the focal point.
- Find a blue mirror to include Mirrors aren’t normally something you see in colors, but they do come with frames in shades other than black, gold or silver. So why not hang one up that’s blue? It’ll be unique and beautiful.

- Choose an animal print wallpaper Wallpapers can be used to give a makeover to any space.

You can then accessorize your bathroom with metallics, whites or a complementary color.
- Put up tile in multiple shades of blue The best thing about blue is that it comes in a variety of shades. So if you’re having trouble narrowing your pick to one, you don’t have to. Just find a tile that comes in several shades of blue and put it up in your bathroom.
