A favorite bathrom decor style can often provide glimpses of your personality. Here are four considerations:

Prefer to keep an unadorned bathroom or maintain just one basic color scheme throughout?

Then your decor style is City Sophisticate.

A straight-ahead, no-nonsense person, you tend to cut right to the chase, modest tastes and temperament.

There’s no abundance of accessories in this bathroom (clearly serving the purpose for which it was intended)!

From the touch of an old quilt wall hanging to a simple calico curtain, the easy comforts of a Country or Nature decor help you to sit back and relax.

Your bathroom may also abound with ceramic animals, plants, and decorative paint treatments.

You enjoy warmth and charm; nothing makes you more at peace with yourself than being able to communicate with nature.

Your bathroom’s a sanctuary from “civilization.”

Romantic-Fresh-cut flowers, scented soaps, wood, wicker, potpourri and candles make you want to linger here (for this is not merely a bathroom; it’s a toilette!).

There are also cherished keepsakes among stained glass and lace curtains.

Brightly-colored accessories and floral wallpaper complement your reserved, yet hidden passionate nature and showcase your grace and elegance.

Your bathroom’s as private and gentle as you are.

Or do you like bright yellow walls (or any bold color) with a black toilet seat lid, plus heirloom linen and lace towels?

Then you’re a combination of styles, and Eclectic.

Your fanciful mix of decorating reveals a fun-loving, whimsical personality.

You’re a contented person who has the ability to be comfortable and create an intimate space through a blend of your favorite possessions.

A set of Stripe, that consists of hand and bath towels in bold, solid colors, big unexpected patterns, and even reversible ones. Go to dusendusen.com

Have a black-and-white bathroom? The color red can be used as an accent; rich jewel tones will also work well.

Spray a little of your favorite cologne or perfume on your shower curtain before you go in. By the time you’re ready to towel off, the entire bathroom will smell wonderful!

Tissue box covers or dispensers are widely available in amazing, limitless varieties of colors, prints, and patterns (and of course, you can always just use the one you already have). Shower curtains also abound in endless varieties and in all price ranges.

Plants love a bathroom’s humid environment! If your bathroom’s large enough, simply add a few.

Don’t you just hate it when you get that build-up of “crud” in the average soap holder?

Well, fret no more. The Cork Soap Dish is totally water-repellent, due to the grooves in this particular product.

Retail price is $13 at wildminimalist.com

Sometimes bathroom tissue can be found in several hues and shades; they can then be coordinated with the color scheme.

Do you have light-covered tiles (pale pink, mint green, etc.)?

Use them as the basis for a pastel color scheme, incorporating spring colors in your choice of curtains, towels, and other accessories.

Or are they black-and-white?

Go for a dramatic black-and-white theme (accented by rich purple and aqua; or you can use red!).
