Creative vanities for bathrooms

I'm hoping to build a pretty little cottage next year and already my brain is teaming with ideas to the point where sometimes I have trouble sleeping! An exciting new project always does this to me.

At the moment, I've decided to save money (and also have a more interesting bathroom) I won't be using a standard vanity from Reece or another plumbing store. Instead, I'll be looking for an interesting dresser or sideboard which I can fix up, paint and repurpose!

There are so many ideas out here and these are some colourful pieces with DIY potential I'm dreaming of...

Photobucket and Ypislon.

Perhaps some cheerful citrus shades would suit you better? That bright yellow vanity in the middle is to die for!

If you prefer the warmer shades you might like these pretty shades of coral and orange. I love the shade of coral against the grey in the first image, and the industrial feel of the second is fantastic!

Are you inspired by any of these colourful options? Or are you more of a white bathroom person?

  7. I love the yellow one in the center too! I'm kind of a white-all-over person in general, but also love bold things like that. We are about to start work on building our own vanity out of reclaimed wood for our bathroom redo.

  10. Great vanities for bathroom. People will love to add those while remodeling their bathrooms. I will keep them in mind and will use some of them while remodeling my bathroom.
