Bathroom Vanity Color Ideas
Your bathroom vanity can offer great storage benefits. But while its main purpose is to store your items, that doesn’t mean you cannot use it to make your bathroom look more stylish. Some vanities come in unique designs and fun and pretty colors. So, if you choose the right shade for your vanity, you can complement your bathroom’s design.
Now, it’s up to you whether you choose a vanity in a certain color from the get-go or decide to paint your old one. If you’re out of ideas, here are some bathroom vanity color suggestions that could help.
- Navy Blue
Blue is perhaps one of the most popular colors for bathrooms. This is because it brings a sense of peace, and makes you feel like you are surrounded by the calm ocean. There are many shades of blue that look amazing on a vanity, but navy blue is certainly one of the most popular.
“City Shadow is in BM’s Colour Stories collection, meaning it’s a HUGELY versatile, chameleon-like color. In some lights, you might see it more like a blue-gray, while in other lights, you’ll see a bit of green come up!” says Kylie Mawdsley from Kylie M. Interiors.
- Soft Green
Green is also a great color that can be used in bathrooms thanks to its calming properties. Similar to blue, you can opt for many shades of green. Eucalyptus is an ideal pick as it’s a soft, muted shade that works very well with other shades of green or even other colors. Besides, it’s not too strong, offering a peaceful atmosphere, which might be exactly what you’re looking for in a bathroom.
- Black
If you’re brave enough to go with a black vanity, it will surely not go unnoticed. Black may be far from what you’ve had in mind, but if you pair it with the right colors, it will look amazing.
Now, keep in mind that this will not work if you have a tiny bathroom with little to no light, as black shades will make the room look even smaller. However, black vanities look amazing in bigger bathrooms and they will stand out when they’re combined with gold finishes.
Besides, if your walls are painted in a lighter color, like white, you will truly make a statement with a black vanity. Black is also in trend right now, and it’s here to stay.
“Black is back baby. It’s strong, it’s striking, but it can also collect a lot of lint, dust, and fingerprints, so keep that in mind!” says Kylie Mawdsley on Kylie M. Interiors.
- White
There’s nothing like a pure white vanity to light up your bathroom. When you don’t get a generous amount of natural light in the bathroom, you need to compensate for it by adding artificial lighting. Simultaneously, you need to keep things light when it comes to your furniture.
A white vanity will make your bathroom look brighter and it’s also a pure, sweet and timeless shade. White works well with other lighter colors, like gray or blue, but it can also be paired with something darker if necessary to create a strong contrast.
- Gray
If white is too boring for you but you don’t want to go as far as painting the vanity black, you can opt for gray. It’s a perfect middle ground for someone who likes to be a bit different. This vanity shade not only has a gorgeous effect, but it also works with almost anything. This means that there are very few color limitations for the rest of the bathroom.
- Pink
Do you want to achieve a more feminine look in your bathroom? A pale pink would be perfect in this case – especially if you pair it with a white quartz countertop. Pink is such a sweet color that it will make you smile whenever you enter the bathroom, instantly putting you in a good mood.
