[quote=Anonymous]I want to paint a small hall bathroom (the room basically fits a standard sized tub along on wall, and a 30” vanity and toilet along the opposite wall, and nothing else. A window separates the wall with the tub and the wall with the vanity/toilet, and that window has white plantation shutters on it.

There is an existing chair rail with beadboard underneath it, and the beadboard is also on the exposed side of the vanity (the other side of the vanity abuts a wall). There is a built in medicine cabinet above the vanity with wood molding around it.

Right now all of the walls (above and below the chair rail), the vanity, wood around the medicine cabinet, and baseboard molding are painted white, but they are old/dingy and so some look a little yellowed or browned or dingy.

My questions are:

1- would you paint the wall above the chair rail and the beadboard under the chair rail different colors or the same color?
2- would you paint the ceiling white or the same color as the upper part of the walls?
3-  would you paint the vanity and/or the wood molding around the medicine cabinet, and if so, the same color as on the walls or white?
4- what finish paint should I use on the walls - on the ceiling - on the moldings? The room gets humid from showering bc it is so small, but it has an externally vented fan.

Thank you for all advice! [/quote]
