Bathroom Vanities - How Vanity Furniture Can Transform Your Bathroom

Friday, November 10, 2006

When it comes to bathroom vanities, there's something to please all tastes and suit all budgets. Nothing adds to the character of a bathroom quite like a well-chosen vanity cabinet or dressing table. Bath vanities take center stage in a room and as such play a vital role in defining a bathroom's look and ambiance. Here are some things to consider when choosing new vanity furniture.

A critical part of planning your bathroom design is deciding on a decorating theme. Think about the décor throughout your home, be it period, country cottage or contemporary, and decorate your bathroom accordingly. Bath vanities come in all kinds of styles and finishes, from hand painted to distressed, from ornately carved to minimalist and functional straight lines.

In smaller bathrooms, replacing a traditional pedestal sink with a stylish sink vanity cabinet can make more efficient use of the space. Bathroom sink vanities combine useful storage space and countertop surface with enduring style. If you've got a big room, a double sink vanity could work well, adding a touch of elegance as well as being practical for couples and families.

Bedroom vanities can fit in well in large bathrooms, providing a convenient and attractive place to dress and perform daily grooming rituals. However, a bedroom vanity is unlikely to be as water resistant as a bathroom vanity, so it must be placed well away from where it could be splashed. Vanity tables with matching stools or chairs, mirrors and makeup trays are often sold as sets, helping you to save money if you're doing your bathroom makeover on a budget.

Whatever your personal preferences and price range, you're sure to find some stunning bathroom vanities or bedroom vanity furniture which can transform your bathroom and give it a beautiful new image.
