To me, the most important feature of a bathroom vanity has always been storage. Maybe because I was raised on small bathrooms, I strongly believe that function has to come first.

Whether to create a slightly natural vibe, a nautical theme, or even an antique, shabby chic style, wood is showing up in all the traditional places, as well as a few you wouldn’t suspect. […]
