I’ve written about very small bathroom vanities before, but I feel like it’s a topic worth revisiting. For most bathroom vanities “small” means either 36″ or 30″ wide, but anyone with a genuinely small bathroom knows that isn’t really all that small. Personally? I have a very, very small bathroom myself, and I know that every inch counts.  So, in the spir

Vessel sinks are one of the hottest new trends in bathroom design – a simple change that makes a show stopping difference in the appearance of your bathroom. But not all vessel sinks are created equal, and not all of them look the same. In fact, choosing a unique-to-you vessel sink is a great way to show off your sense of style add your own personal flair to your bathroom. With so many mater

Of all styles of bathroom sinks, pedestal sinks are among the most tried and true – and certainly one of the most time-tested. Pedestal sinks have seen widespread usage for more than a hundred years now, and there’s even a strong movement to collect and preserve antique pedestal sinks for use in historical homes. But the very fact that pedestal sinks are still popular proves the design

Here on the Homethangs blog, we spend a lot of time talking how to update the look of your bathroom – how to build a dream bathroom that you’ll love. But renovation and remodeling aren’t just about style. In fact, an important consideration in any bathroom update is the impact any work you do will have on the overall value of your home, and how it compares with the expense you pu

Bathroom design is constantly evolving, in the styles and colors designers choose, the layout, materials, and designs. But while it can be super convenient to have an outlet in your medicine cabinet or a nite-lite in your toilet, I can’t help but feel sometimes that the old ways are really better ways, especially when it comes to material choice. I’m not alone – in recent years,

If you have a decent sized master bathroom, chances are you probably want to have two sinks, both for personal convenience and for your home’s resale appeal. But while getting a big, double bathroom vanity is maybe the most obvious choice, it definitely isn’t the only one, and might not even be the best one for your bathroom. So if you’re planning a big master bathroom remodel, h

Upgrading to a vessel sink is fast becoming a popular choice for luxury and modern bathroom renovations. But installing a new vessel sink, while not more complicated that installing any other type of sink is more involved.

Not everyone is a designer, and no matter how many hours you spend plastered to your favorite home remodel show, making great bathroom design choices and pairings might never come naturally. Getting the perfect look for your bathroom vanity takes hard work, time, searching, and a little bit of a natural eye. So if you aren’t super confident in your own design skills, or if you just want to s

I’ve talked a bit lately about designing period style bathrooms. Historical authenticity can be difficult to come by, and creating a Victorian or Edwardian bathroom that stands up to scrutiny takes more than a little care. But that doesn’t mean you have to be a historian to pull off a classical look, you just have to know where to shop. Herbeau specializes in authentic vintage bathroom

These days there’s a lot of cool new stuff going on in the bathroom design world, but one of the wildest new trends I’ve seen is bathroom sinks made out of wood. Sounds a little weird, right, or maybe even ill advised? But these sinks are not only well designed (read: waterproof!) but they’re also incredibly beautiful and unique. If you’re looking to bring a little natural
