Teresa read about my
bathroom quandary, and sent in photos of her own 1950's bathroom for help.
Here is my gray & burgundy tiled bathroom. We are at a loss here. If you care to suggest a color, we'd be thrilled!

I'm inclined to suggest a nice rich burgundy color, to balance out the activity down below. Or perhaps a middle value gray. Be sure to match the gray against your tiles so you select a gray in the same temperature range. If the tiles are a warm gray, make sure your paint is warm too, and so forth. The white is just too stark, and doesn't compliment the palette and retro feel.
You all were so fantastic with the last bathroom, that I'd like to get your ideas. What do you think, everyone?
