My friend is renovating her bathroom and loved the vanity that my TWBIL (Talented, woodworking brother in law) built for my CSIL, which I featured
here. Her bathroom is not nearly as large and she has been wrestling with how to make a dark wood vanity work in a smaller space. So since a picture is worth a thousand words, here are a few (and don't mind me if I add my two cents to the thousand words!!!)

White and a touch of color makes the vanity the star |

Ssimple shelves over the toilet provide additional storage |

Paint on the upper half of the walls and tub surround give an infusion of color |

Neutral and natural except for the vanity |

Love the gray and amber accents |

So there you go BOK,hope these images spark a few additional ideas for the project. It seems that dark wood is a theme of mine of late, first in the kitchen and now in the bathroom and many of the same rules would apply. I have no dark wood cabinetry in my own home, but I like the looks of it how about you?
Does your room need a “prescription” for a change of decor, function or design? If so please contact me,
I would love to help!
