How to Decorate a Mermaid Themed Bathroom

 

Mermaids have been showing up in stories as old as the book "The Odyssey" and as recent as the movie, ""Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" (2011). They appear in folklore and mythology, in fairy tales and on film. Create a magical, mythical and colorful bathroom with a mermaid theme. The bathroom is one room where whimsy is welcome, whether you're decorating a bathroom for a group of female roommates, as a single gal, or for your own daughters.

With mermaids as the central theme of the powder room, your color palette is as wide open as the sea. Consider these color combinations for a mermaid bathroom.
  • Teal, white and silver
  • Green, light blue and white
  • Copper with mint green and lilac
  • Gold with lavender and pale yellow
  • Sliver, gold and aqua
  • Green and copper
  • Bronze and sea foam green
  • Orange and blue

Details Matter

No mermaid bathroom would be complete without some starfish. Small details make big statements, especially when used in such handy places. Replace the toilet handle with a starfish or a mermaid.

Add girlish charm to your mermaid bathroom with a mermaid hand mirror for the vanity or counter top. It could also be hung on the wall for decoration.
