Stunning Powder Room Paint Color Ideas

A vibrant fuchsia like Benjamin Moore's Peony, is a daring paint color choice, even for a powder room. A small room that is used only briefly can handle a strong and cheerful color like this.

Creamy white trim, dark wood or tile floors, and a white stone vessel sink can balance this bold paint color. All shades of pink and peach are exceptionally flattering to skin tone in a vanity mirror, but a bright fuchsia may need some help. Decorate your fuchsia powder room with soft lighting to minimize the brightness and glare of vibrant wall color.

Deep blue can be a surprisingly glamorous paint color choice for a powder room. The secret to using a dark blue, like Benjamin Moore's Marine Blue, is to pair it with crisp white, metallic accents, and a fabulous light fixture. Swap out the usual bathroom mirror for a luxe style with a glistening and ornate gold or silver frame. 

The secret to choosing a dark paint color like Sherwin-Williams Peppercorn is planning your lighting carefully. Wall sconces on either side of your powder room's vanity mirror can illuminate the wall, and a delicate chandelier can add ambient light overhead. To add a touch of glamor, consider using a metallic silver or pale blue paint or metallic finish on the ceiling to enhance the chandelier's glow and add extra light to the room.

If your decorating style doesn't include metallic gold walls, but you need a luxury powder room idea, try a rich gold-peach paint color like Valspar Apricot Butter. This pretty paint color is just as glamorous as gold without being over-the-top.

You can decorate with a peach paint color that has every bit as much glamor as a traditional powder room color by using glam accessories and details. Fluffy white towels, gleaming metal accents, and a small chandelier can make even the simplest paint colors look more glamorous.

For Craftsman or transitional decorating style, rich neutral color like HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams Gingery adds drama without straying from the overall vibe of the home. A warm, yet vibrant rust or brown is a great alternative to the traditional red colors used in many powder rooms. Brushed metallic accessories and natural stone finishes pair beautifully with this color.

Valspar's La Fonda Teal is a refreshing paint color choice for a beach-inspired powder room that needs some drama. While green may not be your first paint color choice for a bathroom, teal has just enough blue to keep making it more flattering. A versatile teal like this can be paired with natural woods and accessories or made more luxurious with a glamorous mirror and light fixture.
