As homeowners, we want bathroom cabinets that both meet the needs of our lifestyle and fit our design preferences. But how do you pick the right ones for you?
Determine Your Needs
Purpose is the major attribute when choosing the right cabinet for your bathroom. If you confidently know what you need, it becomes easy to decide which cabinet options to purchase. Also, remember that the size of your cabinet will also depend on the size of your bathroom.
Placement
Determine how to maximize the bathroom space when placing cabinets. Be very creative with placement and spacing. Find extra ways to increase your storage capacity without making the bathroom look smaller. Bathroom cabinets may be attached to the wall, or they could be freestanding cabinets. Some may add special features like hinges that close softly or a scratch-resistant surface. Of course, there are also ways to make room for more cabinets and drawers. You can rest additional units atop your bathroom vanity or mount them around the plumbing. Consider replacing bulky and outdated medicine cabinets with hanging drawer or shelf units, too, but make sure that the cabinet placement will complement your needs.
Set Your Budget
Once you’ve figured out your ideal cabinet, decide what type of cabinet you can actually afford, and see if they match. If they don’t, you still have several options. You can choose a cheaper cabinet and cheap granite countertops at specialty shops, resale shops and even garage sales. Or, wait for your cabinets to go on sale or clearance.
Revamp With Style
Aside from functionality, bathroom cabinets should also be stylish. After you’ve determined the purpose of your cabinet, think about the style that you would want for your bathroom. Your tile and countertops should also complement each other without being the exact same shade or texture with your cabinets. But don’t sacrifice substance for style. Choose bathroom materials that are durable, easy to maintain and meets the needs.
