I had same situation. We had white tile with black accents on walls, white and black tile on floor, brushed nickel fixtures and Behr Dynasty Celadon (light green/grey) on walls.

Black rug. Went with shower curtain that has the periodic table on it for fun!

But I liked this one a lot....

Yes. I really like the combo in the photo below but maybe not with blue-gray paint?

The shower curtain you picked out looks very nice, OP. Why are you having second thoughts?



OP here. Second thoughts because maybe it is too fussy-looking? Or am I wrong there?

I thought about a white waffle-weave or hotel-type curtain, but given the subway tile all over, it seemed like too much white.

Should I keep this one in the running?


I don't think it's too fussy looking and yes, I would keep it in the running. I wouldn't do plain white or black and white. Go with something that picks up the wall color and/or whatever color you might use for accents.

I have subway tile (white) and blue/white basketweave floor tile. And I have this shower curtain. It is informal, but that is the look I am going for. Also we have a window in the shower, so need a vinyl curtain to have light in the room. I have navy and light blue towels.

My parents had a b&w bathroom and they used red towels.

Alternatively, Restoration Hardware usually has some nice blue gray curtain/mat colors and I would check their offerings out to see if it matched with the paint. We have a very pale blue/gray paint in our baths, with white subway tile and glass tile accents in green/blue gray and found good curtain/mat coordinates at RH.
. Thank you, I will take a look.

Given that paint and shower curtain colors, I'd go with white for a bath mat. I like the curtain.

Alternatively, Restoration Hardware usually has some nice blue gray curtain/mat colors and I would check their offerings out to see if it matched with the paint.

Floor is basket weave tile, walls and bathtub area are white subway tile with black liner trim. Grey-blue paint on the walls, white vanity, chrome fixtures.

I bought this shower curtain but am having second thoughts:
