When you start to redecorate your bathroom, like most people you may not consider your bathroom vanity to be the most important element. However, the mirror in your bathroom is often the centerpiece of your entire bathroom design. This is because people look into the mirror in your bathroom as a reflex, since they have been checking their appearances in the mirror since the beginning of their lives. Even public restrooms have mirrors so you will be expected to have one as well.
Thus, you know that every guest in your home who uses the restroom, which by the way is the most trafficked area of your home, is going to notice what type of bathroom vanity mirror you have while using the facility. If you do not have a cohesive vanity that matches the theme of your bathroom, your decorating taste is going to appear to be in poor taste and shoddily thrown together.
Also, you need to keep in mind that your bathroom vanity holds an extra value in your home because it is the one large item in your bathroom that you have control over. The equivalent to furniture in your restroom is the toilet, sink, and shower. For most people, these are not replaceable items, and due to your piping, they are also not items that can be rearranged.
Thus, the only item you have sole control over to show your own personal taste in design in the bathroom is your bathroom vanity mirror. Thus, it is very important that you pick a mirror that is going to carry the theme you want portrayed in the rest of the bathroom. You may think this sounds ridiculous, but it is true.
For example, many people choose to decorate their bathrooms with warm cozy themes complete with bathroom rugs and toilet seat covers. Most popular warm colors are earthy elements which tend to match very well with wood. Thus, you may tie your entire theme together by choosing to purchase a bathroom vanity that has a wooden trim. Some great colors for a natural theme are ivory for the walls, reds, greens, blues, and other rich colors.
You can then choose to decorate your bathroom around the wood trimming of the bathroom vanity which is also going to help you choose appropriate accessories. For example, you may choose to place wooden potpourri holders on the sides of the mirror to add extra spice and contrast to the mirror as well as a pleasant smell to the rest of the bathroom.
You also might consider using wooden towel holders throughout your bathroom so that the entire bathroom has one cohesive theme, tied together of course by your bathroom vanity, which is now the centerpiece to your restroom. Choosing a bathroom vanity that does not match with the rest of your restroom is going to be distractive and harsh to the eyes of your guests, therefore ruining any theme you may have been trying to develop.
