Woods like the walnut stained alder wood are especially good, as the colors look very impressive in the bathroom.

Floor to ceiling vanity cabinets not only add more storage space, but also give a completely new look to the bathroom. Such vanities allow you to keep all your bathroom needs in one place, which is why such cabinets are ideal for large families.

Choose contrasting colors for the drawers and countertops.

 

For the kids bathroom, bright colored vanities are especially good as the colors can cheer them up in the morning. Adding bright colors also gives the bathroom a modern look. Make sure that the handles are at the reachable distance for the kids or else, having cabinets would serve no purpose.

How about getting a large framed mirror with a sleek vanity for your small yet cosy bathroom? Mirrors atop the vanity can make the bathroom look bigger in size and give an illusion of space.
