I want to make my bathroom have a "forest feel", while still being a bathroom.?

We are moving into a new place, and the bathroom is fantastic. The sink, toilet and bathtub are all made out of a marbled black material (totally not what we're used to, but we're going with it).

When you first walk in, to your right is a set of cabinets and drawers that rise to the ceiling, to your left is a door that leads to the bedroom. A couple of steps in and the sink is to your right, there is a countertop between it and the cabinets. Then the toilet is also on your right, and then you get to the bathtub.

The bathtub is huge, it is perfectly circular and probably 2 or 2 1/2 feet deep (haven't actually measured, so might be less). It is also black, as are the walls around it. There's a showerhead on the left wall, and a large window on the center wall made of those Glass bricks. It is square, I would guess 3 feet on a side, but I'm not sure. There is a window ledge, 6 inches wide. Could put plants there, was wondering about candles too.

We are going to paint it a light green color, leaf green so more of a yellow green than a blue green. We call it a "living green" if that helps. Not sure what color the cabinets will be, suggestions are welcome. They are already painted, and we are not looking to refinish them at this time so stripping them down and staining them isn't an option. They have to be painted.

    Wow! Sounds like an amazing room! I would keep the cabinents black to match the bath and commode. Find some forest-type prints for the walls and green and brown towels. Lots of plants and black/brown/green pillar candles in all different sizes on the ledge

    I'd say the cabinets should be painted white or a shade of brown. I think a leaf green would go Absolutely perfect with the black marble.
