Emerald and Burgundy Bathroom. Oh, let me paint you a picture: you’re standing in your bathroom, staring at those dated tiles and wondering—why does this space have to be so bland? I swear, sometimes I’d rather be elbows-deep in dirt doing some easy DIY landscaping (you know, like these fun and cheap ideas) than struggle to spice up a basic bathroom. But then… wham! I discovered how emerald and burgundy together can totally flip the script. If you’re sick of dingy beiges, maybe it’s time to be bold—chic bold, not circus bold. Here’s how I muddled through and found style in the most unlikely color combo.
Description
Alright, let’s get down to the good stuff: what makes an emerald and burgundy bathroom actually work? When you marry deep, rich emerald with that warm, lush burgundy, the bathroom turns from just a “getting ready” room into a little slice of luxury.
- Emerald walls or tile can make the room feel spa-like… but not in a snooty way.
- Burgundy accents (rugs, towels, maybe even a plant pot!) add warmth, so it’s not all business.
- Metallic fixtures (think gold or matte black… oof, so classy) somehow help tie these bold shades together.
I was skeptical. But wow, after seeing it—that color story hits different. Oh, and bonus: a little white or cream here and there stops things from getting too heavy.
“After I swapped my tired old shower curtain for a deep emerald one and got a burgundy bathmat, my friends legit thought I’d hired a designer. Instant swoon-factor—and I did it for less than dinner out.”
Additional Information
Okay, let’s be honest—totally redoing a bathroom can get expensive real quick. Some quick tips if you’re not looking to drop loads of cash (I never am):
- Start with small stuff: towels, candles, or a new soap dish in emerald and burgundy shades.
- Paint is your friend. Try a bold emerald accent wall instead of tiling the whole lot.
- Repurpose what you have! Old mirror? Spray paint that frame burgundy for a one-of-a-kind look.
Patience is everything. It took me weeks to pick the “right” emerald (yes, all those swatches started looking identical after a while).
Customer Questions and Answers
Q: Will the colors make my small bathroom look even smaller?
A: Not if you balance ’em out! Use emerald or burgundy on one wall, then keep the rest lighter to open things up.
Q: Where do I even find emerald and burgundy bathroom stuff?
A: Good question—try online shops, but local thrift stores sometimes surprise you with unique finds. (I found a burgundy vase once for $2. Score.)
Q: What about the grout for emerald tile—should it match?
A: Go with a light grout if you want things brighter, darker if you’re after cozy.
Q: How do I keep it from feeling “old” instead of chic?
A: Stick with modern lines—sleek vanity, clean shower hardware, that type of thing.

Common Questions
Can I use these colors in a rental apartment?
Definitely! Use things like shower curtains, rugs, and wall art for easy, non-permanent swaps.
Are emerald and burgundy just for big bathrooms?
Not at all. In small spaces, even tiny accent pieces pop—just go easy on the wall color if you’re tight on space.
What if I get tired of bold colors fast?
Keep your major stuff (like the tub and toilet) neutral. Switch out color with accessories when you want a change.
Will these colors go with wood cabinets?
Yes! Especially lighter wood—makes the colors really jump out in a good way.
Help, what if I don’t love it?
Start small. If you don’t swoon right away, you can always dial it back or swap out accessories.
