BEST WHITE MARBLE BATHROOM IDEAS
1. White Marble Bathroom With Gold Fixtures
This cute French cottage white marble bathroom looks so trendy with its gold fixtures!
If you are remodeling or renovating your bathroom to have gold fixtures, be sure to tell your contractor your vision.
We wanted to add gold hardware in our bathroom, but the plumber had already put the bath tub drain in and it was silver chrome. From there on, we changed the whole bathroom look and went with the silver chrome.
TIP: Make sure that you buy all your gold fixtures in the same shade of gold. I suggest sticking with the same brand for all your fixtures to make sure that everything matches.
2. White Marble Bathroom Countertops
BEST BATHROOM COUNTERTOPS:
- Calcatta Classique
- Calcatta Laza
- Calcatta Verona
- Eternal Calcatta Classique
Quartz is the best white marble bathroom countertop options because of its durability and heat resistance. Quartz countertops come in many shades and variations of white that will go perfectly with your marble look.
We recommend choosing quartz countertops for a faux marble look, rather than actually installing real marble countertops. Real marble countertops can stain easily and require regular sealing.
3. White Marble Bathroom With Black Accents
For a more modern white marble bathroom look, try adding black accessories and fixtures.Black is much easier to match in the bathroom than the other finishes.
4. WHITE MARBLE BATHROOM TILE
Small penny tile has been trending this year! We adore mixing different tile sizes and shapes throughout the marble bathroom.
5. MODERN WHITE MARBLE BATHROOM
A modern white marble bathroom look can be achieved by creating an all white clean look. Stay away from the trendy decor and go for this modern timeless look.
6. LUXURY WHITE MARBLE BATHROOM
A great way to get a luxurious white marble bathroom is to upgrade your molding. Add crown molding to the ceiling and switch out your outdated light fixtures for a small chandelier.
7. SMALL WHITE MARBLE BATHROOM
You don’t need a large bathroom to create a white marble bathroom. This small bathroom looks so cute with the small marble tile on the floor that continues into the shower floor. Using larger marble tile on the shower walls adds variety in this small bathroom.
White Marble Bathroom Remodel
BEFORE
When we first bought this home, our main focus was updating the main living areas and leaving the bathroom remodels for last. However, once we started updating the other rooms the bathroom looked very out of place.
One day I decided to peel some of the wallpaper (that was already peeling) and that turned into ripping down the cabinets and the rest was history! I am so thankful that we did start peeling the wallpaper because we discovered a leak and roots that were growing underneath the sticky tile!
AFTER
Once the demo was done, it was time to plan. My idea for this bathroom was that I wanted it to feel like a stay at a hotel. I knew I wanted it to be clean, bright, and simple. After looking around we loved this affordable white marble look tile from Lowe’s. For the grout we went with a bright white color to try to make the floor look seamless. We continued this same tile into the tub too.
The next step was the paint. We went with Benjamin Moore’s Chantilly Lace. It is more of a cooler toned white. The upper cabinets we just said we wanted a white and the lower cabinets are Benjamin Moore’s Shoreline. We finished the cabinet with silver hardware and the rest of the accents we chose to do in chrome.
Overall, I am so happy with how it came out. With he help of our friends we were able to achieve this look with no contractors and did it on our own for a fraction of the price.
GET THE LOOK:
We love our white marble bathroom tile from Lowes and have it in the shower and bathroom floor. The biggest mistake we made with the tile is choosing white grout.
The white grout looks awesome the first few months, but is extremely hard to maintain it’s white appearance. I clean the grout once a week and it still looks yellow.
