Furnishing a home is always a task that will stretch you to the end of your limits. Considerations of budget, convenience, and style can leave the best of us feeling like unpracticed jugglers. Still, there's hope. There are people who have bought furniture and lived to tell the tale. Where bathroom vanities are concerned, this is a quick how-to-choose list born out of many people's home furnishing experience. 1. Is it the right size for your bathroom? You should be able to walk - or run - past your bathroom vanity without bumping into it. Unless your bathroom is tiny, a second person should be able to walk past you while you stand at the sink. 2. Is it within your budget? This is, of course, why most of the items don't make it to the shortlist. "Within your budget" doesn't have to mean "stretching the edges of your budget". Look for vanities on discount, refurbished ones, and don't wrinkle your nose at something just because it's cheap!3. Does the finish suit your overall color scheme? Make sure that your bathroom vanity fits in with your home decor. You wouldn't want to pair marble or granite bathroom vanities with wicker living room chairs, for example. If you would like to keep changing the look of your home once in a while, go for cheap, refurbished vanities that aren't wall mounted. This will let you experiment without pinching your wallet too hard.4. Does it do what you need it to, I.e. hold your toiletries nicely without letting them spill over? In the end, a bathroom vanity needs to a) hold your sink and b) hold your toiletries. Decorative purposes are secondary. Pick a style of vanity that will hold what you want to keep in the bathroom - toilet items, towels, makeup, bathroom cleaning tools, etc. However, there's a reason this is the last item on my list. If your chosen vanity is the right size, color and price, you can always choose to limit the amount of stuff you'll keep in your bathroom. Alternatively, you could go for bathroom cupboards or wall-mounted racks. Heck, throw stuff out - most people could use a therapeutic de-clutter session! But don't back out on a good buy just because it doesn't hold your entire wardrobe.Bathroom vanities come in multiple materials - wood, stone and glass being the most common. These can be placed on the floor or wall-mounted, single or double, with a mirror or without. The types of sinks and faucets available range from vessel sinks with long, narrow spouts to the shallow basins with squat, wide-mouthed faucets. Instead of confusing yourself with details and tables and charts, do yourself a favor and start browsing stores - retail or online. When you see something that catches your eye, visualize it in your bathroom and give it a closer inspection. If the vanity has passed the test, you're ready to buy it. About the Author:
