Give Your Bathroom a Whole New Look With a Bath Vanity

The bath vanity is the focal point of any bathroom and is likely the first thing that visitors will notice about this room. You need to pay particular attention to this feature when designing or remodeling your bathroom.

There is a wide range of materials to choose from to allow you to create the look you want to have. Distressed look vanities are perfect if you want to have a rustic look. There are sleek and contemporary vanities and ones that are inspired by antique furniture. You can have the vanity custom built to match your decor and the size of the room.

Take the overall design of your home into consideration when choosing a bath vanity. You don’t want it to look out of sync with the rest of the house. If you have a lot of antique furniture in your home, then you want to maintain this theme in the vanity. Having a really modern design in the bathroom will throw off the whole scheme of the house.

With the wealth of information available on the Internet, in home improvement retail outlets and in magazines, you can find ideas for the bath vanity you would like to have. Some of the popular styles today are those of the European vanity and a vanity with the sink incorporated into the design. European contemporary designs use materials such as steel and limestone to create a very unique result. You can choose a glossy lacquer finish or exotic natural materials to create the ultimate look that says “Wow”.

If you have a limited space in your bathroom, you may want to look at a vanity sink as your choice of bath vanity. This is a freestanding pedestal that sits in the corner of the bathroom and doesn’t take up much room at all. On the other hand, a large bathroom just cries out for a large vanity, perhaps one with a double or glass sink. Then you won’t have any space to try to fill in the bathroom by adding other enhancements, such as baskets or other accessories.

A bath vanity usually has drawers and shelves that you use for storage of all your toiletries and grooming tools. A unique way in which you can have this storage area and a sink is to choose a basin that fits on top of a piece of furniture. Then you can choose any type of furniture with or without drawers through which you can connect the plumbing to the sink.

When you start looking for a bath vanity, you can shop by price, design and brand name. With the numerous online retailers featuring this piece of furniture for your home, you will be able to study all the designs to choose the one that will best suit your home and your budget.

You may have a piece of antique furniture tucked away in the attic waiting to find a place for it in some room of your home. This would be the perfect opportunity to put it to good use by turning it into a vanity. If you have any carpentry skills at all, you might want to take on this challenge yourself. If not, there are many professionals who will help you in creating the vanity of your dreams. It is will be one of a kind that your neighbor cannot possibly copy.
