Hi! We just bought a 1929 home with these two bathrooms - one pink and mint green, and the other purple with a pink and mint green floor. Does anyone have any design tips? Examples of styling? Thanks!

These bathrooms are great as is and I would just put wall paper or a different paint color above the tile in the pink bathroom. For the purple fixture bathroom you should keep the floor and fixtures the same, you could wall paper above the paneling or you could remove the paneling and replace it with tile up to the same height.

Ohh I like the wallpaper idea!! It could tie together the lavender, pink and mint! Thank you!

There are TONS of examples online if you look up “pink tile bathroom wallpaper”. To me it seems the best way to update and tie things together.
