Do you think a vanity in a medium or dark gray color could work in a bathroom with dark brown walls? I would have a white top on it. Like this:

I have a mirrow that is also 48" wide that would start right above this as it's 36" above the ground, i.e. I wouldn't have any splashes.

I think the whole gray thing has played itself out. It would be a better long-term strategy to go with a complimentary woodtone cabinet with a white top and paint the walls gray.

Hmm okay. The current vanity is a maple color. I'm alternatively thinking about just raising that one and putting on a new top. The floor tile is a kind of beige/cream with some brown in it.

Yeah, also vetoing a gray vanity with brown on the walls an in the tile. Go with wood, and maybe thing about something a little textured if it seems to be blending into the wall color too much.

You could also try mint green for that mint chocolate vibe! (I just saw a brown house with mint green window shutters, that was a fun look.)

Okay, I did also look at something that was a whitewashed oak that would go well with dark brown tiles. So here's my options:

1) Add just a new top that is very thick (like 2") which would add some height and be the least amount of work. This would give me a 33" vanity. Paint the area where the splashes were.

2) Add legs to the bottom of the current vanity and add whatever top I want. However this is obviously a lot more work, and I'm unsure whether the tile floor extends to be below the vanity or not. Is there any reason why it wouldn't be?

3) Replace the vanity completely. This is obviously the most expensive. Also I have a matching linen closet (i.e. also maple) that would need to be changed to match the new vanity.

Last thing - other vanity colors to consider to match brown walls? What about white? I think that would contrast pretty well, but I still would have to match the linen closet.

Here's the floor btw. That brown rug is pretty similar in color to the walls.

It's unlikely that they tiled around the vanity, but it should be easy to tell. I'd go with modifying the vanity rather than replacing it, unless you really want a different layout or more storage or something else that means you just need a whole new piece. Another idea is to paint it dark like the walls, but with a high gloss so all the reflected light makes it stand out.

But you keep coming back to new and lighter vanity, so if you opt to go that route you just need to color test against the tile. The thing about neutrals is you have to check for what undertones get brought out up against other colors and in different lights. Don't buy a new vanity only to find out it turns green and makes your tile look like a flesh tone bandaid.

Modifying the vanity would definitely be the easiest. If I add a topper between the vanity and the top it should be straightforward but I want to make sure I can match it. I assume I would just use maple stain.

How much does this thread know about exterior design?

We’re thinking about re-landscaping our front yard at some point when we have more money, and I was hoping somebody here with some kind of landscape architecture/garden design knowledge could take a look at the mock-up map I made in MSPaint and give me some feedback.

I’d put this in the Plants In General thread, but I’m already littering that thread pretty heavily with other questions to the point that I think they might be ignoring me now. Plus this is more of a design question than a plant question, which seems more like this thread’s forte.

I wouldn't mind having the floor redone as well. But painting lino seems like a pain. Also part of it is probably that it really needs to be cleaned.

Here's part of the vanity, floor and wall. Do you think that if I keep the vanity I should keep the maple color? Or paint it something different (and also possibly paint the walls)?

Your uneven drawers are stressing me out.

The color looks fine to me though. Could maybe do with being a bit lighter, but I'd rather have the natural wood than a lighter painted color. I'm a sucker for wood though.

Oh gently caress now I can't unsee that. I was able to easily fix it though.

Speaking of, how do I deal with wood warping in bathrooms due to shower steam? Several of the doors close slightly unevenly because of this.

I attached my new vanity top. Unfortunately even though it's classified as a "48 inch" vanity top it's actually 49 inches. However it says it fits a 48x21 vanity which is what I have. After putting it on (my vanity is in the right corner of the bathroom) it overshoots the left edge by a bit, i.e. the vanity top doesn't actually touch the left top edge of the vanity. The caulking is touching fine in the back and right side, and the front. Is this an issue?

Okay here you go. I just talked to the guy at the home depot. He said it should be fine. The gap is about 1/4 inch between the vanity edge and the vanity top edge. I think the reason this happened is because the vanity is in the back right corner, so I can't center it, i.e. the extra inch all has to be on the left side. I'm just going to wipe up the caulk that's in there.
