Bathroom Vanity shopping checklist
Blogroll No Comments »Bathroom Vanities serve as the centerpiece of your bathroom, so it is important to evaluate and choose quality bathroom vanities when remodeling your bathroom. Here is a quick checklist before you go shopping for your bathroom vanity. a. Vanity height - vanities these days are a few inch taller and can impact the mirror usage and if you have older people at home, consider height carefully.
b. In line with the age of your home - you do not want to look like applying lipstick for a pig
c. Brightness of your bathroom - if your bathroom is too bright, consider a smaller vanity to show-off larger space.
d. Countertop decoration space and shelf space
e. Match existing floor and walls - even better if you are remodeling completely
f. Vanity lights - highly related to the design of the mirror I suggest, do not spend a lot of money, do spend a lot of time browsing on the internet to find the ’seed’ design and a backup seed design. For example, I picked mahogany estate design (which is a wood work with lots of carvings on the outside) as my seed idea. The backup seed idea is a plain dark wood vanity with ‘cool’ handles on them.
Once you like a particular design, visit a local store or browse the internet and look for matching mirror and lights. In my case where I chose carvings, I needed the vanity mirror to match the same color and ‘carvings’ on them. I also had to make sure it is in line with my 40 year old home - I did not want to apply lipstick to a pig. I was lucky to find those at local home depot (yep, I was very lucky). The next think was to try it with my flooring. This depends on individual taste but there are valuable thoughts from others at LikePoint. You can see my bathroom vanity at LikePoint. My only nag at this point of time is : My counter space if small however, there is enough shelf space.
