What colour towels in a grey tiled bathroom?

TheSilveryPussycat · 17/08/2019 00:24

None of the colours I've got seem to look right, nor can I get a picture in my mind of what might work. Can you help me?

Depends on the grey. Do you want an accent colour or something to blend in?

AdalindMeisner · 17/08/2019 00:26

Mustard yellow? In a bit shit at decor stuff but saw a photo of a bathroom (white tiles around Bath but grey walls and yellow towels and looked OK)

Plum or mustard.

White.

Likethebattle · 17/08/2019 00:27

I have purple or teal I change them about.

Midgey91 · 17/08/2019 00:34

I love mustard yellow with grey, or you could have navy, blush pink, emerald or sage green

NaomiFromMilkShake · 17/08/2019 00:37

A very pale dusky pink.

DustyMaiden · 17/08/2019 00:39

White, yellow, bright pink.

LittleAndOften · 17/08/2019 00:40

Yellow. We've got grey-blue tiles and yellow accessories. We also have grey towels with yellow edging (think they were sainsburys).

merlotqueen · 17/08/2019 00:40

Teal.

Grey bathroom? Isn't that trend over now?

GREY is STILL the new MAGNOLIA!

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 17/08/2019 00:40

We have mustard, white and charcoal towels in a pile on a dove grey tall shelving unit, and a triple hand towel rail with one of each colour.

Waxonwaxoff0 · 17/08/2019 07:15

Another vote for mustard. My sofa is grey and I have a mustard rug and cushions.

Or a turquoise.

growlingbear · 17/08/2019 07:16

Teal, fuschia or deep burnt orange

SinglePringle · 17/08/2019 07:20

I have deep, burnt orange and cream with lots of plants.

owlonabike · 17/08/2019 07:24

Teal and mustard

MedalMedalMedal · 17/08/2019 07:34

Most colours go with grey. I like sage green and cream.

Another option is for striped or patterned towels if you want to add interest.

Omega369 · 17/08/2019 07:36

Any colour goes with grey! What colour are your shampoo etc bottles? Perhaps just go with that and add one or two other accessories in that same colour too.

NoSauce · 17/08/2019 07:45

What colour grey and what style bathroom?

FrogLion · 17/08/2019 08:48

Mustard yellow.
Not white. They should only be found in hotels.

Strawberrycreamsundae · 17/08/2019 08:50

Fuchsia, bright turquoise or emerald green

PinkFluffyBubbles · 17/08/2019 08:51

I would also of suggested mustard! It's a lovely contrasting colour to grey and very on trend at the moment 😊

AnneElliott · 17/08/2019 08:56

Bright pink?

AwdBovril · 17/08/2019 08:58

I agree with either teal, dusky pink, or perhaps white with a stripe (maybe at the ends, if possible) in either grey or a colour. Perhaps a pinkish lavender?

userxx · 17/08/2019 09:03

I have bright pink, it works really well and brightens the bathroom up. I have the same colour bath mat.

thefemaleJoshLyman · 17/08/2019 09:05

We have bright turquoise/teal and it looks good. I also thought about red.
