My 1952 home is a small ranch. Many of the bathroom floor tiles have cracked. I donโt like the glass shower doors because they are hard to clean. Iโll be getting shower curtains instead. I have a limited budget, but Iโd like ideas on color for the bathroom floor tile.

- โIโd take those sliding doors over shower curtains any day.โ
- โActually the only thing that throws me off at the moment is the counter top! Are you replacing all the floor tiles and the bath? I think black white and pink would work.โ
- โWe had a pink tile bathroom and loved it, although the black does make it a bit trickier. If you remove the shower glass, check out the Flora/Bird Shower Curtain from Target (Opalhouse line) โ I bet it will bring all the colors together.โ
- โYour tile is beautiful. You might regret changing it. I definitely would take the glass shower doors down. Usually they come right off. One time we came across some tracking the was adhered to the tile. Nothing would pry it loose and it took the tile with it. Best of luck! Youโll love it when itโs gone.โ
- โI really think the floor looks perfect and in great shapeโI would not replace itโespecially if you are on a budget. I would focus on a new vanity-the whole thing is out of place with style of the bathroom-or at least the counter and sink faucet fixtures. I also think a fun vibrant wallpaper would be fun too. It is a really cool bathroom!โ
- โHate those old tub sliding doors too! As for floor, I could see something similar in style but darker โ maybe black/grey/pink.โ
- โFor the shower curtain, anything from transparent to light pink will make the space feel larger. If you are thinking of replacing tile, tryย www.bwtile.com. They specialize in vintage tiles and might be able to match the tiles you already have to save you money.โ
- โI love this bathroom โ and the floor. My parentsโ 1958 ranch house was almost identical, except for the black tile trim. I agree with the consensus that the sink would be the first thing to change. But frankly, I could live with it โas isโ.โ
