If you’re looking to add character to your bathroom, or perhaps there’s a dresser that’s been in your family for years that you can’t bear parting with, consider upcycling and turning it into your bathroom vanity. Simply add a sink and a waterproof surface on top for a unique and stylish piece. A dresser will also give you lots of options for storage.

Nothing makes a space more feminine than a splash of pink, and adding a pink vanity is a wonderful way to infuse your bathroom with a bit of playfulness and fun. This beautiful mauve vanity pairs perfectly with the subtle floral bathroom wallpaper, the clear crystal cabinet knobs and round, ornate mirrors.

If all-white bathrooms aren’t your style, opting for a vanity with dark stained wood will add richness and depth to an otherwise neutral space. The subtle ridges on this vanity add texture, and are complemented by the contrasting sage green wallpaper and black trimmed mirrors.

If, however, you like the classic look, this is for you. An all-white bathroom will never go out of style. Keep it simple with a white vanity and chrome fixtures for an elegant look.

Playing with color is a fun way to add a bit of whimsy to your bathroom or powder room, and a light blue vanity like this one will keep the space feeling light. The powder blue vanity is paired with a bold floral wallpaper, flower wall sconces and a rattan-wrapped mirror that’s both trendy and timeless.

If you want to stear away from a white countertop, but a darker color goes a bit out of your comfort zone, there’s a middle ground. You can choose gray. Gray marble or quartz, in particular, is an excellent neutral stone and can make other features in your bathroom really pop—whether you choose to go with a lighter or darker color scheme.

If there’s one room to make a statement in, it’s a powder room. The square footage is just limited enough that you can be a bit daring without taking too much of a risk. Opting for a vanity in a bright color is one way to walk on the wild side, and this bright green vanity does exactly that. Keep the rest of your bathroom neutral to make a colorful vanity the star of the show, or lean in and add additional complementing colors like towels, wallpaper and other bathroom accessories.

If you’re looking to give your neutral bathroom a subtle pop of something special, try adding gold hardware to your vanity. The gold faucet and cabinet pulls on this light gray and white double vanity are gorgeous and are further complemented by a wall-mounted towel holder and soap dispenser in an antique bronze finish.

Why settle for one vanity when you could have two? Two separate vanities will give couples ample space to get ready, and if you decide on two vanities side-by-side, consider adding a dressing table as well. This added surface will give you one more additional space to get ready in, as well as a place to sit.

Sometimes less is more. And this rustic, minimal vanity made from reclaimed wood is a perfect example of the beauty in simplicity. Adding a sink to the top of a stool is a great way to conserve space as well, and including a shelf on the bottom will be perfect for storing extra towels or toiletries.

Vanities don’t come as a one size fits all piece of furniture—they can be highly unique and feature many unique details, like the scalloped edges of this piece. The soft edges of this vanity would be an ideal choice in a children’s bathroom, or for anyone looking to add a playful touch to their powder room.

Don’t be afraid of customization, especially if you’re tight on space. Smaller vanities can work just as well as large ones, and they can fit neatly into any small nooks, corners or any other unique shape your bathroom holds.

In need of a unique bathroom sink idea? A black sink paired with black hardware can be a striking option. Black may not be the first color you traditionally think of when it comes to bathrooms, but when paired with a lighter-colored tile like this one, a black sink and vanity will look chic and stylish.
