Bathroom Accessories in Lavender

Bathroom accessories in lavender can conjure up images of wide fields of purple flowers. Just looking at such bathroom accessories can almost evoke the fragrance of lavender. While the color purple can cause people to flee some rooms, lavender bathroom accessories have a soothing effect. Complement the flowers’ lavender hues with the wooly grey-green of the plant’s stems and leaves for a natural retreat.

Begin at the Beginning

Bathroom accessories in lavender begin with a wall hanging that contains the colors you plan to use. Accessorize your wall with a large picture featuring a field of lavender. It might be a nostalgic print – an old country home at the far end of the field. It might be a fairy in gossamer lavender, her tiny body perched on a lavender stem in the field. Whatever it is, such lavender bathroom accessories set the mood and color scheme.

Other bathroom accessories for your walls might include a framed copy of the old song, “Lavender’s Blue, Lavender’s Green” – or a fine art tapestry of lavender.

Tie it Together

Lavender bathroom accessories will only look good if they are tied into a good color scheme. Choose three colors from your wall hanging: purple, green, and grey. Then follow the tried and true 60-30-10 rule.

* Use soft green on 60 percent of the room. You might have soft green walls with green-grey ceramic tile on the lower portion and floor.
* Use brushed grey on 30 percent of the room: toilet, sink, and tub. You may want grey floor mats or rugs.
* Use lavender on only 10 percent – bathroom accessories.

Lavender Candles

Make your bathroom a relaxing spa with lavender candles. Lavender candles are wonderful bathroom accessories. They give a warm look, even if never lighted. Choose lavender color, or get candles with a true lavender fragrance. Lavender Love has wonderful lavender melts to let your bathroom smell as good as your lavender bathroom accessories look.

Lavender Linens

Lavender towels and face cloths are must-have bathroom accessories. Solid colors are fine, but you may want white, ivory, pale green or gray linens with embroidered lavender designs.

Lavender Bath Teas, Bubbles, and Oils

Although not truly bathroom accessories, lavender bath teas, bubbles, and oils can carry the theme. If they don’t come packaged in lavender colored containers, pour them into such. Pale lavender containers or white ceramic containers with lavender designs are good. Again, we found lovely bath items at Lavender Love website.

Lavender Soap

Authentic lavender soap in a lovely ceramic dish is a soothing touch among more necessary bathroom accessories. A light purple soap sprinkled with tiny lavender flowers is perfect.

Other Lavender Bathroom Accessories

Other lavender bathroom accessories may be plain lavender color. We found recycled glass bathroom accessories of frosted lavender that were subtly elegant. Your accessories may be pottery in swirls of lavender, green, and grey. They may be white ceramic with lavender flowers, or swishes of lavender color.

You may want some or all of the following:

* tumbler
* toothbrush holder
* lotion dispenser
* tissue box cover
* waste basket
* shower curtain
* shower curtain rings or hooks

Crowning Touch

When using lavender bathroom accessories, finish your room with a large bouquet of dried lavender. Arrange it in a grey or green-grey basket to complete your restful retreat.
