Name changed as outing.

We have saved so hard for this new bathroom. We have reconfigured it and had everything new. Stripped to bare brick.

I really don't like it :-(

We still want to put a shelf up behind the toilet with some nice things on, and a towel storer where 3 towels will be rolled up at once in there.

Please be honest. Be as brutal as needed. I want to change the paint I think but no idea what to. We need to get a blind. What else can I do to make this the dream bathroom I envisaged Blush

It’s just a bit bare! Once it’s full of your stuff and more cluttered I’m sure it’ll feel lovely.

Needs a nice blind at the window.

It’s fine! It’s very white which is probably just a shock. A bright paint would help but it is really ok!

It's lovely and swish. A splash of colour might be nice and the window looks a little bare.

Paint the walls a different colour and it will be fine.

It's ok, canyoutell, but a bit bland. It needs a big plant and some artwork. It just lacks personality yet.

Get a beautiful voile panel for the window and some luxurious bath mats, maybe a gorgeous piece of art for the walls?

It looks a bit plain at the moment, but thats easily fixed!

I think it's lovely. A bit of soft colour on the walls and a gorgeous bath mat will make it perfect

Something on the walls (picture maybe) as it's a bit bare? Warmer paint perhaps. I think a blind will really help. It looks lovely just needs pulling together a bit

No colour? It is lovely but just needs some colour, some accessories, towels, rug etc or plants or pattern I think. It's a bit sterile at the moment. A blank canvas.

I think you don't like it because the paint is too cream. I think you need more of a Dulux Walnut White type colour. Other than that it's a lovely bathroom.

I think it needs personalizing... needs a blind. Looks lovely but a bit stark atm.

Toilet a bit square maybe for my liking but other than that it's lovely. Add bit colour and some nice towels

Some colour in the blind, even if its black.

Once youv got the towels up and shelve up I think it'll look more cosy

It’s nice but maybe a bit plain? Put some artwork on the wall above the toilet? (Not sure bathroom art is even a thing!)
Get a colourful bath mat?

The gap at the end of the bath is a bit strange, but otherwise fine.

Walls should be a statement colour to contrast the tiles. The magnolia/cream is doing it no favours.

I can't see the problem with the bathroom. It looks nice.
