Mirrored Bathroom Cabinets Guide

By KBC Kitchen & Bathroom

A mirror is an essential part of any bathroom. Without it, people would have a very difficult time getting ready for their day. However, some bathrooms are small and don’t allow much room for large mirrors. A great way to overcome this particular challenge is to install mirrored bathroom cabinets.

Bathroom cabinets that have mirrored doors are a very useful addition to any bathroom. Not only do they provide much-needed storage space for small, cluttered bathrooms but they also provide that mirror that’s crucial to the morning routine. Often called “medicine cabinets,” these handy little storage units provide a place for everyone’s essential personal items. Some even have adjustable shelving to make room for various sized bottles and personal hygiene products.

The mirrored doors are useful since they alleviate the need to find space for traditional mirrors. Just open them up, grab what you need, and close the doors to finish preparing for the day ahead. It’s a no muss, no fuss solution for bathroom organization. You’ll wonder how you ever lived without it.

Mirrors are often used to make small rooms appear more open and spacious. In much the same way, mirrored bathroom cabinets can help to make small bathrooms look and feel larger. They’re easy to clean and require very little maintenance so they make a great addition to any bathroom. Many home improvement stores sell these cabinets in many shapes and sizes, so finding one that’s affordable is a snap.

Make sure to choose one that matches your current bathroom decor. Shop around online and visit local retailers to get a good idea of what’s available. Installation is easy and can be done in a short amount of time. It won’t be long before you’re able to enjoy the beautiful new addition to your bathroom!

Corner Bathroom Cabinet – Get Yours Today!

By KBC Kitchen & Bathroom

The bathroom is the smallest room in the house and the one that gets the most use. With a large family, this can be almost constant during the morning and evening hours. Keeping enough towels and supplies on hand requires some extra storage space and this can be accomplished by adding a corner bathroom cabinet.

Storage space in a bathroom normally is quite limited.  Some shelves or a small chest on the floor helps make up for this, but usually is not enough. The corner of the bathroom tends to have enough room to comfortably add a corner bathroom cabinet without detracting for the overall look of the room. Mounted up, within easy reach for almost every family member, this lets you keep a bit extra of everything close by.

There are many types and styles to choose from when it comes to these types of cabinets. There are single and two door models that have anywhere from two to four shelves built inside and some come with mirrored doors to give the bathroom an even more expanded look. Latching and non latching doors are also available on these.

As far as finishes go, you will have a wide variety to choose from. Wood grain and stained to match the trim or other cabinets that already exist in your home should not be too difficult to find. Along with Formica and easily cleaned surfaces, these cabinets are completely sealed against the possibility of water damage from the steam produced in a bathroom.

A brief search online will let you find a wide range of these cabinets to choose from. Once located, whether it is at a local store or a manufacturer’s outlet, ordering them is a simple matter. Many include free shipping with a substantial order which will cut down on your overall costs.

White Bathroom Cabinet Savings Guide!

By KBC Kitchen & Bathroom

Welcome to our website! You will find many white bathroom cabinet sources throughout this page.

It’s time to remodel that old, worn out bathroom with a look that’s refreshing and new. There are so many choices available so it can be difficult to make a decision. Don’t get stuck with a color scheme that might go out of style in the near future. Install a white cabinet to give that bathroom an exciting new look with a base color that matches everything.

There’s a reason why artists use a white canvass for their creations. Splashes of color stand out against white and give the creator versatility when producing their masterpiece. Anyone can use their bathroom as a blank canvass as well. Start with white and add color through bath towels, shower curtains, bath mats and other bathroom accessories. White bathroom furniture can become that canvass.

For anyone who is worried that a white bathroom cabinet will show the dirt too easily, it is important to know that the right kind of paint can make cleaning even easier than before. If the cabinets are merely being repainted, make sure to use several coats of a paint that’s marketed for easy cleaning. Some provide a barrier against dirt and grime as they dry, so choosing this type of paint will make cleaning chores easier.

If the cabinets are going to be completely replaced, look for new cabinets that have been properly treated with stain-resistant treatments and paint. This is especially important if children will be using the bathroom. Kids often like to draw on white surfaces so making sure those cabinets are coated with a paint that’s easy to clean is important.

Once the cabinets are chosen and installed, there are plenty of great bathroom accessories that will complement the new look. Get them in white to match the new look of the cabinets or get them in contrasting colors for a dramatic and exciting feel. The creative possibilities are endless!

Choosing the Right Bathroom Vanity Design

By KBC Kitchen & Bathroom

One of the easiest ways to revamp your bathroom is with a new bathroom vanity. The most important feature when picking a bathroom vanity is the design; they really make the space more pleasant. A new vanity under your bathroom sink will not only give you a place to store away items, but can also add more counter space to put all your toiletries on.

Often when people plan a bathroom remodel, they neglect the storage. With several people sharing one home, though, having a vanity to store all the items they need in the bathroom is a good feature. Reducing clutter also adds to the beauty and design of your bathroom space.

bathroom-vanity1.jpg

When shopping for new vanities, you must first measure the amount of space you’ll be able to devote to the new vanity. Most vanities come in widths of 18 inches up to 48 inches, in increments of 6 inches. There are many different designs to consider, as well. Your vanity should coincide with other fixtures and design features in your bathroom. There are modern, classic, deco, antique, and many other styles to choose from. They don’t just come in wood, either; there are many different materials to choose from.

There are generally a few categories bathroom storage units will fall under. There are those with cabinetry, which could be vanity cabinets, wall cabinets, recessed cabinets and medicine cabinets. Some vanities or storage pieces also have open shelving. Then there are over the toilet cabinets and linen closets. As far as design goes, cabinet vanities are often the most aesthetically pleasing. There are face-frame vanity cabinets, which are more traditional and formal. Then there are frameless vanity cabinets and European style vanities, which are more modern.

It’s a good design choice to match any period-style cabinets with period-style knobs and pulls in your bathroom. As far as vanity cabinet countertops go, you have a few choices. There are laminates, ceramic tile, wood, composite materials or solid surface materials including stone, stainless steel and concrete. Laminates, composites, solid surface materials and stainless steel are easier to scratch, but composites or solid surface materials are very easy to repair or replace. Wood is beautiful, but must be maintained. Stone countertops are the most durable and aesthetically pleasing, but they are more expensive.

Ceramic tile is probably the most common bathroom vanity surface material. It’s durable and doesn’t stain easily. You can also find a lot of choices, because they’re so common. Whatever material and style you choose, making the effort to find a bathroom vanity that suits your storage and design needs will pay off. New bathroom vanities add more storage and a pleasant look to your bathroom.

12 Ideas For Small Bathroom Design

By KBC Kitchen & Bathroom

Every person that has a small bathroom is interested in ways of making their bathroom appear larger.  Remodeling the bathroom is not always an option and in many cases, remodeling the bathroom would be very expensive.  There are a number of ways that a person can use to make their small bathroom seem larger without having to undertake any heavy construction.

12 Ideas For Small Bathroom Design

1. Soft Color for Walls
One of the easiest ways that a person can alter their small bathroom design to make it appear larger is to choose light soft colors for the décor of the bathroom.  

2. Accent with Color
Bright, bold colors can be used in small bathrooms, assuming you reserve them for accents only. Going overboard with bold or dark colorstend to make the bathroom appear tighter and more intimate.  

3. Visual Accents
If your bathroom has wallpaper, avoid using large prints or busy pattern. Instead, choose very subtle wallpaper patterns. Better yet, keep one wall free from any pattern at all. Consider making the largest wall in the small bathroom into a mural of an open space.  

4. Light Tones of Bathroom Flooring
Just like light colors on the walls, light colors on the flooring of the small bathroom will help make the bathroom appear roomier and more open.  The most popular colors for a light bathroom floor are tans, light grays, and light blues.  By incorporating these colors into the flooring of your small bathroom design, you will have the basis for a light colored decorating scheme that will make your bathroom appear more open.

5. Pedestal Sink
Another small bathroom design that can be used to make a bathroom appear larger is to replace a large vanity or countertop with a slimmer, pedestal sink.  A pedestal sink can be found in many different styles, colors, and materials, allowing them to be matched to any décor.  By placing a pedestal sink in the small bathroom, you can open up the bathroom space by another ten percent.

6. Classic Fixtures
When selecting fixtures for your bathroom, keep in mind they are going into a small space. Choose simple designs made from smooth surfaces, such as ceramic and marble, and opt for light, neutral tones.

7. Additional Lighting Fixtures
Additional lighting in a small bathroom can make a world of difference in the way the space in the bathroom is perceived.  Consider adding additional light fixtures or using higher wattage bulbs, as appropriate. By making the bathroom brighter and more inviting, it seems that the space has opened up and the walls are farther apart.  

8. Increase Natural Light
There are a variety of ways that additional lighting can be added to the small bathroom without taking up more space than is already used, including installing a new window, or even putting in a skylight.

9. Limit Items in Bathroom
Many people choose to open up the amount of space available in their small bathroom by greatly reducing the amount of items that they place into the bathroom.  Items such as storage shelves, hampers, and decorative items all take up valuable space in a small bathroom and the bathroom will appear much larger if these items are removed and the things that they hold are stored somewhere else.  

10. Consider Storage Outside the Bathroom
Some people choose to place a small storage cabinet in their hallway near the bathroom as a place to put all of the things that they would normally keep in their bathrooms. It’s also a good idea to consider putting laundry hampers in the bedrooms instead of in the bathroom. Extra supplies and paper products can even be stored in the pantry.

11. Adding Mirrors
Adding additional mirrors to the bathroom will also help the bathroom appear bigger than it really is.  Placing additional mirrors in the bathroom will help to capture all of the available light and reflect it back into the room to make it brighter.  Adding extra mirrors to the room will also add depth to the room, as the mirrors reflect each other and make the walls appear farther away.  

12. De-Clutter
Other ways you can use to make a small bathroom design appear larger include removing clutter and extra items. Instead of storing all of your beauty items on the counter, place them in a cabinet or in the medicine chest when not in use. The more items are visible in a small bathroom, the more cramped the space will look and feel.

Using these subtle design changes to modify the look of your small bathroom is easy, inexpensive, and most of these design changes can be completed in a few hours.  By changing your small bathroom design, you can make your small bathroom appear larger within the space of a day.
