Each month a popular Atlanta exhibition center opens its doors as a marketplace for buyers and sellers. Aisle after aisle you can find beautiful antique furniture and jewelry, among other collectibles. I invited a neighbor to accompany me during a recent visit where I was shopping for furniture to use in our powder room. Our powder bath, much like others in our subdivision, has builder's grade vanities which many homeowners never get around to changing.
By her facial expression, I could tell she had an "Aha!" moment when I shared with her my plans to retrofit a piece for a vanity. Prior to this conversation, all she saw was dressers, consoles and buffets. Then through my eyes she saw endless furniture options for my new powder bath. What do you see?

A white buffet with its cabriole legs balances the layers of dark tones in this casually elegant bath. It also emphasizes the appeal of mixing the old with the new.
An understated whitewashed wood side table effectively plays a supporting role to this highly glamorized jewel box bath. Its slender legs help to maintain a feeling of openness, even in tight quarters.

Steeped in Asian influence, a wood chest brings a taste of the Orient into a Zen bath.

Mirrored walls are unapologetically interrupted by a sculptural, fluted-front vanity. Almost mistaken for a luxurious wetbar, this piece is sure to be a conversation piece and an excuse to linger longer in the loo.

A rich, hearty carved table-turned-vanity finds its rightful place among the walls of history. A repurposed table like this one can keep an heirloom in the family and honor your stylish lineage.

A classic Victorian home deserves a passionate powder room to match. Choose a vanity composed of beautifully time-worn wood, or recreate the look with a glazed faux finish.
Smitten by its thick turned legs and jeweled hardware, this piece, along with the mirror, showcases its curves against the room's boxy shape.

Sometimes simplicity is enough to make a bold statement. This straight-edged vanity complete with low profiling doors and a subtle sheen provides an equally distributed combination of beauty and function.

CAROLE MEYER I agree, great ideas......I have always used furniture in my bathrooms and love that unique look. The photo I have attached is of the powder room....I used an old Camel bag hung below to cover the open area. The top is honed black granite. Carole www.carolemeyerart.com

md14 My particular favourite is the one with the dark walls and big dark furniture - very nice. Here are some pics of mine which was done a few months ago and I'm really loving it! I've since ordered a black and white striped Roman blind/shade for the window and added black loo roll!

drunbear Usually I drool over the the pictures in an ideabook, giving the descriptions a mere glance. With this ideabook, I must confess that I had even more fun reading the descriptions than looking at the pics! "Mirrored walls are unapologetically interrupted..." and "linger longer in the loo." You have a gift with furniture AND words!
