By: Osmundo Bernabe



Whether you are redecorating a bathroom or you are putting a new bathroom, no doubt you want to make sure that it is warm and stylish. While there are many different styles of vanities that you can choose from for your bathroom décor, wood bathroom vanities are becoming a very popular choice, since they add such a warm touch to a bathroom. Not only do they look great, but you can also match other pieces of furniture in your bathroom to your vanity as well to get a great look.

Great Woods Available
No matter what kind of wood you like, more than likely you will be able to find a vanity made out of that kind of wood. There are vanities made of cherry, maple, pine, and even oak if that is what you want for your bathroom. In some cases, if you have a master bedroom that has a bathroom in it, you may want to match the wood in your bathroom to what is in your bedroom, carrying across the theme. Not only are there a variety of different wood choices to choose from, but there are various styles as well. You can even have wood bathroom vanities custom made for your bathroom too.

Storage Cabinets Too
If you decide on a wooden vanity for your bathroom, you can also get matching storage cabinets too. Most people want to have a storage cabinet in their bathroom under the sink for storing various toiletries, cleaning supplies, and other items. When you purchase a vanity made of wood, then you can match your bathroom storage cabinets to your vanity for a great look.

Making Your Vanity Unique
While many wood bathroom vanities will come already finished, you can also choose to have your vanity come unfinished as well. This will allow you to make your vanity more unique. You can either choose to finish it yourself, or you may want to hand paint designs on your vanity. If you want an antique look, then you may want to paint your new vanity with a distressed finish to get the old antique look you want.

Caring for Your Wood Vanity
Since your vanity is made of wood, there is going to be a bit of extra care you will need to take. Wood bathroom vanities must be protected against any type of water damage. Avoid getting water on the vanity and make sure that it has a good finish that will repel water. In the event that you do get any water on this vanity, be sure that you wipe it up as soon as possible to avoid any type of damage to the wood.

Wooden vanities and other wooden bathroom furniture can definitely make a bathroom look great. With the proper care, a vanity made of wood can last you for a long time, brining both style, warmth, and practicality to your bathroom.
