laminate on bathroom vanity (advise to do-it-yourselfer please)
Comments (3)I think pre-made laminate counters can be had quite cheaply. Looked it up, Lowe's website has a 6 foot laminate ready to install for $67. YOu'd have to cut the hole for the sink though. Still has to be easier than buying supplies and tools and attempting it yourself, and maybe messing up...I'm sure they could tell you what to cut it with. You can rent the proper saw if you need to (from them or rental places)Depot's site didn't list any, but I know they have them. Also, try Craigslist.com , you might get lucky! http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=142966-1110-4724116L&lpage=none Here is a link that might be useful: counters...See MoreBathroom vanity top questions (pics)
Comments (3)I get the impression that you're doing this work yourself? And that HD's granite tops are 49" wide and you only have a 48" space? If you have a circular saw, you can buy a diamond blade and use it to cut an inch (or as required) off the left edge of the slab. More info to follow if you're interested....See MoreWhat would you do with this blue bathroom?
Comments (24)I like Pal's ideas. If you keep the tub, it'd be neat to try to undermount the sinks. I'd want to remove the tile on the window wall if possible because it looks institutional with so much dark tile. Ideally I'd just keep it on the floor and in the shower. My first impression is that it's a very long room, which the striped pattern of the floor tile accentuates. I'd break up that wall with taller vanities and a cabinet centered between them. Put a hamper or pull-out trash in the base cabinet. I'm not sure about white vanities since it's a guy bathroom and I don't think white wood is very guy-like. Maybe some type of light-colored natural wood. I would use a white quartz or Corian countertop. Hang the shower rod higher, and add some hand towel bars near the sinks....See MorePaint color suggestions for this retro bathroom?
Comments (10)That is a very nice black and white bathroom. Wallpaper can be fun and also nice, but it depends on the feel you are going for in the room. You would also want to get a wallpaper that would do well in humid areas Personally, I think I would just do a white or cream paint. A greige could also work; BM’s Edgecomb Grey is one of those. And I’d leave the cabinets alone. Maybe bring in a new vanity light....See Morebossyvossy
