Using custom cabinetry in a bathroom to create your vanity or other storage solutions can really make a huge difference in how well your bathroom works for you and your family on a daily basis.
These days, you can’t really go wrong with any style, because it’s totally acceptable, and even desirable to mix and match styles to your heart’s content.It’s a good idea to look back on your own personal tastes for the last 10 years or so and think about what you’ve always loved.
There’s a good chance that you’ll continue to be drawn to that style for years to come.I’ve always been a little traditional in my tastes, so for the things that would catch my eye first, like the shiny faucets and the light fixtures, I made sure that I kept them really traditional.Because I do enjoy modern style and conveniences too, when the time is right, I went with a pretty modern-looking tub and a really sleek toilet, which you’ll see in my next bathroom post.. Another tip for choosing a style that I love is to look at the exterior of your home when choosing the really eye-catching fixtures that will really dictate the overall “feel” of the room.
Take your cues from the style of your home’s exterior (or how you want your home’s exterior to look if you’re in the middle of renovating that too) and go with that.We live in an old Victorian style farmhouse, so choosing fixtures that make sense for a house of that style and from that period, helps bring kind of a cohesive feel to the overall design of our house.
Well, it’s a pretty rustic/basic Victorian style farmhouse right now on the outside, but I’m hoping to bring a little more polish to it eventually!
So that’s what I went with.very often on the blog, but we recently did a really clever mini reno in there that really made the room feel like a whole new world, so I’ve kind of been re-inspired to share that room a bit more.
But not too much because we’re still working on finishing up the last few details!If you follow me on.
you’ve probably seen a few sneak peaks here and there.So I brought a few Easter things into this room, but I’ll save the shots of the new cabinets and counter and all that for my big “before and after” kitchen post that I hope to get posted for you some time soon-ish.
