Vanity Area with Furniture-Style Cabinets

A console sink offers an elegant, vintage look, but provides limited storage space. To gain more usable space, pair your console sink with freestanding cabinets. These vertical cabinets feature glass doors with drawers below for practical linen storage and decorative display space. Their vintage design and glass knobs complement the bathroom's marble floor and handblown light fixtures. Polished-nickel console legs and mirror frames add a touch of glamour.

Painted Pretty
