Dreaming, oh, I thought I needed a bathroom fridge for my cold cream. :) And it probably doesn't cost much. Babka, yesterday at the glass/mirror shop they told me that if I wanted a framed mirror to get the frame first and then they'd do the rest. I need to go back and get some idea of prices. You're right, I could get a decent frame. I could also get a frame that matches my vanity, although I'm not sure I need to match it, just coordinate with it which is more my speed. I don't see what's so wrong with a little vertical storage at eye level. Do you put your hydrogen peroxide and Pepto Bismol in a drawer? Don't you just see bottle caps and have to lift it up to see what it is? The medicine cabinet I have now in the photo is horrible faux wood crap. It might find a home in my garage, but not even the mirror is worthy. may_flowers, Mirror Mate looks pretty cool and isn't too expensive. I'm not keeping my existing mirror. My vanity is just 30" high, so with a new one at 36" and making sure the lights don't overhang the mirror, I need to get something smaller, at least not as high. It might end up that a new mirror and frame will work out better. I wouldn't have a recessed cabinet in the side wall if it didn't have a mirror. It may be that electrical in there would need to be moved in order to recess so that's something to consider. I'm not sure I love the look of a magnifying mirror on an extendable arm. I don't really need a magnifying mirror.

Yes! Thankfully we've planned for the sconce/cabinet face off. It took a lot of looking for a low-profile lamp that I loved... but I found them. I was worried that it would still be too close, but it's going to exceed my best-case scenario. Alternately, we could have done a multi-light fixture centered at the top, but I really love the look (and extra light) of two sconces through the mirror.

Thanks everyone for all of your responses!! It sounds pretty unanimous for the medicine cabinet(s). I think it would probaly be better to have two since I could have one and my husband could have his -hopefully he will use it. For now most of his toiletries remain on the counter. -Thanks again, DG

Diana...Here is link to the 72"VANITY https://www.homedepot.com/p/SUDIO-Jasper-72-in-W-x-22-in-D-Bath-Vanity-in-White-with-Engineered-Stone-Vanity-Top-in-Carrara-White-with-White-Basin-Jasper-72W/314491746 Per your suggestion here is link to a black matte 24 x 36" oval mirror that I just found. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Umbra-Hub-24-in-H-x-36-in-W-Oval-Black-Modern-Mirror-1006044-040/30520501 I am thinking of keeping the vanity's included nickel hardware and adding matte black faucets. Do you think the mirrors 24" x 36" ( hung vertically above each sink) is a good proportion for the 72" vanity?
