Paint Colors For Small Bathroom With No Windows – I didn’t think we’d get to the point of painting this small bathroom, but this week it’s time to pick a color for this windowless room and paint a small wall. Small rooms without windows can present challenges in choosing paint colors. Your instincts will tell you, “I want this room to be light and bright, so I’m going to paint the walls white!” But unless you have really perfect artificial lighting, it doesn’t look good, it looks dark.
We want it to complement the reflection (if you don’t want to look sick every day, you should automatically avoid bright green in the bathroom).
Paint Colors For Small Bathroom With No Windows
No matter what type of room you’re painting, don’t try to choose a paint color without being in the room with the lighting you’re planning (and lamps if you don’t have windows!) so you can see their colors. the light After sitting in the bathroom with my swatch book, I narrowed it down to two Farrow & Ball shades: Calamine (a beautiful neutral pink with an unfortunate name) and Shadow White (and a warm, light sadness).
The Best Tile Color For A Small Bathroom
We decided on Calamine because it looked so pretty on the tile and we knew the girls would love it. After painting the ceiling bright white, we removed the disposable liners and put in new ones for the wall color.
We’ve talked about our love for Handy Paint products before, but they really nailed the design of this tray. It can hold a full liter of paint, which means less time spent refilling, and has ergonomic handles on both sides that make it easy to transport. Plus, it has a magnet so I can easily store it away when not in use. They really thought of everything.
This room only took Chris about 15 minutes to move, I don’t think he’s supposed to move his legs (haha!) but the cut took me about 45. Still, I fell more in love with each shot. It’s warm, soft and inviting and still feels neutral thanks to the tone. I didn’t leave a window here.
Finish this room (finally!) and we can’t wait for the paint to dry so we can start the finishing touches – mirrors, art, lighting, linen closets! We are officially home!

Welcome to our online community, we’ve been posting home, DIY, style, remodeling and family since ’09. Fixed up our #cljmodern cottage in Idaho and headed for a new adventure in Raleigh, NC. #cljfam #cljtransformations Choosing a paint color for a small windowless bathroom can be difficult, but once you understand the basics of your space, it can be a really fun process! I learned this while doing this for my own home.
I was recently faced with choosing a paint color for a windowless bathroom when I was renovating my first floor. We changed the layout of our first floor so that the one large, full bathroom on that level is split into two rooms: a small laundry room with a window and a small bathroom without a window.
I have a windowless bathroom on the second floor…and I chose a different paint for each one. One is a very deep green and the other is bright white. However, each choice is very deliberate and based on the function of the space,
Our Dark Green Bathroom, Makeover Reveal
Here I explain my color decisions and how to decide which direction to go with your small bathroom paint color, as well as share a list of my favorite paint color ideas for small windowless bathrooms.
The most important thing to consider when choosing a paint color for a windowless bathroom is the function of the room. Of course, we all know the function of a bathroom, but your small bathroom either falls into one of two categories: a powder room or a full bathroom that you or your guests use to get ready for the day (shower, put on makeup ). , etc.).
For example, in our downstairs powder room, which is small and has no windows, I chose Sherwin Williams Palm Leaf, a very dark olive green paint. I painted the walls, ridges and ceilings with color and a beautiful color wash. I’m not going to lie, it’s a little hard to see in there, even with the overhead lights and the two lights next to the mirror. Dark paint colors absorb light and usually create a dark room. However, in a powder room, a dark space is best.
This is because you usually don’t get your makeup, hair done in a powder room or cut. You are in and you are out. You need it if you can see the sink, the toilet and if you have something in your teeth.

On the other hand, if your small windowless bathroom is a place to shower, apply makeup, shave your upper lip, etc. every day, (AKA, this is where you really need to see yourself doing well), you should choose light colors that reflect the light. This room is bright, so it does more work.
The windowless bathroom upstairs in my house is my children’s large bathroom. This is where they shower, brush their teeth at night and generally do all the personal hygiene things in the bathroom. When we moved into our home, the bathroom was painted a medium blue and felt too dark to see adequately. So I painted it white instead, Benjamin Moore Just White. Because white paint reflects light, the color makes the room bright and functional.
So the general idea is: If you’re painting a small powder room with no windows, have fun.
