There are literally hundreds of different kinds of cabinet doors to choose from, from simple modern panels to gorgeous classical styles with inlaid moulding. Unless you’re a cabinetmaker (or some kind of memorizing savant), you probably aren’t going to be able to recite or identify them all from memory. But having a basic working knowledge […]
Open shelf bathroom vanities are hugely trendy in bathroom design right now. Generally this style is associated with large double vanities – big two-sink fixtures destined for a roomy master bathroom. But if you’re stuck with a smaller bathroom, you aren’t entirely out of luck. In fact, some of the very smallest vanities out there […]
If you’ve never remodeled a bathroom before, it isn’t always easy to know where to start. Faucets often come tagged with their brand names, so you’ve probably heard of a few of the big ones – Moen, Delta, Rohl, and so on. But unless you really pay attention to that sort of thing, the big […]
If you’re planning on furnishing multiple bathrooms at once – either in a home you’re about to move into, a home you’re building, or a home that’s just in need of a big overhaul – a great way to save time and money is to buy multiple vanities from the same collection. This not only […]
If you’re in the market for a new bathroom vanity, either as part of a remodel or for new construction, there are probably a few big-name vanity brands that you’ve heard of, but beyond that, you might not know much about choosing a vanity, or even what makes one better than another.

It can also be very tempting to stick with what you know. In fact, big brand names […]
Adding a wall mounted faucet is a great way to add a designer flair to a bathroom of any size or shape. Unfortunately, doing so isn’t exactly easy: you’ll need to tear out part of your wall, reroute your plumbing, and work around any existing studs, to say nothing of retiling the wall when you’re […]
Antique bathroom vanities aren’t particularly known for their storage capacity. In a very small bathroom, a modern style almost always wins, as the straight lines and simple aesthetic make it easier to cram more storage into a compact space without disrupting the design. But more traditional bathroom vanities really shine in larger spaces, with an […]
Traditionally double bathroom vanities are only an option for larger bathrooms. At a minimum, most models clock in at a hefty 60″ wide, which is about – you guessed it – twice as wide as your average single vanity, and they can easily span twice that width. But while big double bathroom vanities are great […]
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. Many, many bathroom vanities handle storage poorly, with a single oversized cabinet that isn’t much help to anyone. I make it a point to […]
