Never heard of bathroom furniture? Well, come take a look!

My sister is far more up on fashion and interior decoration than I, so she took advantage of this fact in a recent phone call. I'm getting new bathroom furniture! was her intro. She knew I'd take the bait. She's got two bathrooms, but I don't recall seeing anything in them that you'd call bathroom furniture. I bit. Bathroom furniture? What's that mean? A big sigh on her end demonstrates her satisfaction. Oh, you know ... a new vanity, an armoire, a heated towel rack.... OK, now I get it. Silly me.

I decided to see if she was putting me on. I Googled 'bathroom furniture'. Aaaargh! She was right. So, if you're thinking of refurnishing your bathroom, here are a few tips on pulling it off with the panache and sophistication of my sister.

Before you start shopping, go through old home decorating magazines, or go online to collect some samples of bathroom furnishings. Print out pages from websites and take them in to the bathroom for further contemplation on styles which will look best in your bathroom.

Bathroom furnishings come in as many styles and finishes as regular home furniture. You can choose from styles ranging from contemporary to old-money traditional, to suit every taste and budget. Now, on to our tips:

1.Refurnishing your bathroom gives you an opportunity to step outside the conventional dcor box. For example, you might consider a traditional style of furniture to complement the dominating style of the rest of your home furnishings. With bathroom furnishings, form and function are stressed. That Queen Anne bathroom vanity and armoire are designed to stand up to the moisture and warmth of a bathroom.

2.When choosing your furnishings, think storage space! A tall, narrow armoire looks elegant, while serving to house towels and toiletries behind closed doors, for a neat and tidy look.

3.If you've got young children, consider easy to clean materials for your bathroom furniture. Some of the contemporary collections include chrome finishes and sleek, sophisticated plastics to fill the bill.

4.Rattan and wicker furnishings may be a good choice that blends well in a home predominately furnished in either contemporary or traditional furniture. These pieces are less pricey than solid wood, while still lending an elegant ambience.

5.Don't despair if you see the perfect vanity in the wrong finish. Most bathroom furniture is available in several finishes, so read the fine print of the descriptions.

6.Here's a budget helper: look for unfinished bathroom furnishings. Finish the pieces yourself, for a custom look!

If the bathroom in question is on the small side, remember that most bathroom furnishings are available as single pieces, as well as in sets. If you only have room for the tall, narrow armoire and the new vanity, buy them as single pieces.

Whether you call it bathroom furniture or a mini-makeover, the end result is a new and fabulous looking bathroom. A rose by any other name.
