Bath Accessories

Hm.  No clear majority.  For reference, this is the hamper set - don't any of you steal it before I make up my mind!  It's not so much avocado, really, more 60s than 70s, but all the towels I'm looking at for coordination are avacado-ish.  There's a set of really good orange ones which I like.

Wow. That is bright! It's also rather a color that I personally loathe. :p That said, go for it. Why not? The bathroom is one of the easiest places to do crazy things and then change it when you get tired of it, if you do. As long as you're not doing tile or installing an avocado porcelain toilet. ;)

I know! Isn't it hideous? I love it. It's very definitely not my normal style but I'm a sucker for a matching set and I just cannot get over the fact of the toilet brush with this one.

I am severely torn because I know I should do something much classier than this, but I may give in to the temptation and go purely for the fun factor.

Oh, my. That is kitchy! And you are not afraid bright colors! I like color but I prefer deep rather than bright. For this hamper set I'd probably go for a set of very pale green towels however the orange towels are likely to wake you up in the morning. :D

I'm not normally one for bright colors like this...but it has a matching toilet brush! How can I not covet it?

If I could somehow find the perfect green/yellow/orange shower curtain it would be the most fun room ever. It would blind everyone in it instantly, but you know, most fun ever! :-)

I like it! I was picturing a dingy green, which is how avocado looks to me. This is more spring green, I think. I'm changing my vote to green.

Yes, I think I misrepresented it initially. It's quite bright and fun, and I just cannot get over the matching toilet brush! I think I might take the plunge...

I love the hamper set, and the towels, although I'm not sure about all of that against avocado paint.Maybe a lighter-shade-of-pale to match the hamper?

It will be glorious ♥

Oooo... that's not avocado. That's pea green, like the beautiful boat in the Owl and the Pussycat. :-)Pea green with Alice blue on the walls and a light butter (fresh butter) accent color?

That's truly lovely. A fairy tale bathroom. :-)
