Top 3 Bathroom Vanity Tops

When you set out to redecorate or revamp your home, the bathroom might not be on the top of the list. However, take a minute to consider just how important of a room it is, and you might find yourself rethinking the remodeling situation. A home’s bathroom lends itself to a space where people find refuge, freshen up and generally, utilize on a daily basis. It’s an important room in any home and as such, deserves the same interior design attention as those vital living rooms and kitchens.

One of the most overlooked factors when it comes to decorating your bathroom is just how much versatility homeowners really have. Bathrooms are usually a smaller space, and in being more dimensionally limited, should be an opportunity to put some creative ideas to the test! While you don’t want to shrink the appearance of a bathroom by choosing exclusively dark colors or picking a multitude of patterns that cause visual chaos, it is possible to focus on one element and give it a vibrant kick as the centerpiece of your décor. In combination with a light-toned, visually streamlined bathroom, your centerpiece of creativity will really stand out as a personal touch in your home.

One of the best elements to utilize your creativity with in any bathroom is the vanity countertop. A simple, yet vital part of the space, the bathroom vanity top holds everything important a person could find in a bathroom and generally acts as the epicenter of cleanliness, holding the sink and soap. While it’s uses may be standard, it’s up to you to keep the design unique—and it’s more than possible. The following are the top three bathroom vanity ideas that will give your bathroom a creative edge!

Give it a little granite

There is a misconception amongst remodelers that granite countertops are exclusively designed for the kitchen. Luckily, this just isn’t true and when it comes to your bathroom vanity top, the granite rule still applies. The benefits of granite countertops are endless. Not only do they provide a sleek appearance, but their durability helps them maintain their sophisticated appearance for years to come. When protected properly with high quality sealant, granite countertops are exceptional at acting as moisture resistant barriers and as such, can handle messes they encounter daily. These factors make them the perfect addition to any bathroom vanity as well. As a room that generally maintains plenty of moisture, a granite countertop for a bathroom vanity is efficient and classy. Available in a variety of colors and tones, granite bathroom vanity tops can easily be combined with any number of color schemes and accent pieces.

Maybe a little marble too

If you want your bathroom vanity top to get the sleek and sophisticated feel of granite for a little less in the cost department, a marble vanity top will more than do. In fact, many homeowners go with marble not just because it’s less expensive, but because it’s naturally less porous than granite and may not require as much maintenance or upkeep in general. Similar to granite, marble vanity tops for bathrooms are available in a vast number of colors and can be mixed and matched to fit your personal color scheme.

Take a chance with tile

While any standard bathroom vanity top can benefit from tile, why not kick up the creative notch and incorporate some colorful Talavera tile! While these tiles boast bright colors and intricate patterns, the bathroom vanity top is the perfect place to let colors fly when paired with simple colored walls. This draws the eye to the vanity top more as a piece of art and less as a standard element of your bathroom. Talavera tiles are not only visually appealing, but they are designed to be water resistant and provide for easy clean up. General household cleaners won’t damage these tiles and they can be grouted with unique colors to pull a certain hue or color scheme to the forefront.
