Decorating your Restroom with a new bathroom vanity

By Alex Zidan

Decorating a bathroom can be a daunting task, especially if you are trying to create a custom unique look to your restroom. However, it can be made easier if you choose to center your theme around your bathroom vanity. This is because astoundingly enough, the mirror is the most noticed and important part of entire theme. Thus, if you want a custom look, you have to place an extra effort into the mirror you decide to place above your sink.

The bathroom vanity is the first thing that people see when they walk into your bathroom, and because everybody is accustomed to checking their appearance while they was their hands, it is also the last thing they see as they exit the room. Therefore, the number one thing that people will notice in your bedroom is by default going to be the mirror.

A bathroom vanity mirror can be called the basic building block of a bathroom theme. It can be trimmed with any color which makes this feature very flexible in any bathroom theme. The influence of the mirror will be noticed by all the guests and also will affect the bathroom's theme. If you feel that you have choose the wrong mirror, your bathroom will not be balanced and it will feel like you just threw all the pieces in place without a purpose.

There are plenty of ways that you can accent the rest of the detail in your restroom if you choose the right bathroom vanity, and most of them focus on the size and the trimming of the mirror. For instance if you are going for a homey warm feel you might choose a mirror with wood trimming because it will bring out the natural feel to the room.

On the other hand, if you are going for the popular aquatic look, with brightly covered fish adorning your shower curtain and window curtains, you might choose a silver frame and place a vinyl fish dcor on the side of the bathroom decor. However, if you want to really choose a bathroom vanity that is unique, you might turn online and by an actual fish shaped mirror which is bound to draw attention to your theme.

Keep in mind, that while every other large item in the restroom is there by default and lacks personal charm, (you can't do much with a toilet, sink, and shower) the bathroom vanity is the one item you have full creative license over. This means it is your one opportunity to decorate the room with your personal flair without worrying about where the piping is.

No matter what theme you choose, you need to make sure that your sink and bathroom vanity are balanced out. The mirror should be proportioned on the wall like a piece of art over the sink. You need to make sure that your bathroom is balanced throughout the entire room. By balancing out the bathroom, you need add accessories that will match the frame of the vanity and the frame of the mirror. - 16035
