Bathroom sink vanities don't have to be run-of-the-mill. And they should certainly never be an afterthought. After all, your sink vanity is the centerpiece of your bathroom. (You didn't think the centerpiece was the toilet, did you?) The sink vanity is worth a little extra pre-planning to make it extra special.

Sink Vanities with Style
Make your bathroom vanity stand out by adding unique touches. Vanity sinks can be funky or fancy or anything in between. Perhaps you like the scalloped porcelain look. There's certainly nothing wrong with this popular standard, but be sure not to overlook other materials such as copper, stainless steel or even stone. Install an old world copper bowl that sits on the countertop. Wrap your cabinet doors in leather or add leather pulls instead of traditional brass handles. Place your faucet and the handles higher up on the wall. You're limited only by your imagination.
How Big Should Your Bathroom Vanity Be?
Bathroom vanities come in so many sizes that it's really up to you. Do you share your vanity with your spouse? Perhaps you should think about installing a double sink vanity. You won't ever have to wait in line to use the sink again. And if you like your side neat and tidy, your spouse can mess up the other side without touching yours. A double sink vanity is great for families with multiple children as well.

Shopping for Bathroom Vanities
So, what should you think about as you shop for your bathroom vanity? Size, style, accessories and budget. Make sure your vanity fits your bathroom and your budget. Determine the style you want for your bathroom before you start shopping, so you can coordinate all the accessories you'll need like door pulls or knobs, vanity mirrors and lighting. And, above all, don't forget to have fun. It's only a bathroom, after all.
