Pretty vanity mirror and light for contemporary bathroom?
Comments (23)I had my wiring for outlets, sconces, over head fan and ceiling fixtures all done before mirror, fixtures, vanity and cabinetry were added. I have a small oval tilting mirror that is only 24 wide over my vanity it was dirt cheap from lowes and they had rectangles too. Under 100 dollars. Your contractor should be able to drill with a new and properly sized drill bit to tile without issue and if it cracks the tile can be easily replaces. I know cause glass door guys broke a tile on their last hinge using a dull unchanged bit and my tiler fixed it is less than an hour. I can not attest to its quality but I love my cheap I mirrors function. This is similar to mine might be too short at 24 I think. https://www.atgstores.com/bathroom-mirrors/gatco-elevate-small-rectangle-mirror_12643290.html&ppc=2615&af=2615&cm_mmc=sce_google&s_kwcid=AL!4500!3!112410639507!!!g!189703215387!?gclid=CIyj4OfV0M4CFUMkhgodpYQGxw&ef_id=V2mUpwAABYlpJA92:20160820185548:s...See MoreBathroom mirror vanity light swap or switch out mirror/light entirely?
Comments (2)Here is your dilemma. if you take down those fixtures there will be two holes in the mirror, that being said, they will be up high and most likely off center. So, to get new lighting that is not stuck in the corners, and covers the holes behind it, might be next to impossible unless you run a thick bar that covers the space. But some times back in the day they only drug wire over and did not put in actual junction boxes, so the bringing it to code might be another issue. 1. take one of the lights down and see what is going on 2. probably have to replace the mirror and move the electrical location....See MoreBathroom vanity--mirror help
Comments (4)Hi Sammy, thank you! I love what you posted above. The only thing is that I think I will use that makeup area to dry my hair, rather than where it's wet by the sink. And to put my heated irons, curlers, etc. So I think--despite the lack of light--that I will use the mirror over there to do my hair. So that's why I picked a mirror that is also sort of pretty for that area. So...if I'm sort of stuck on the idea of putting a mirror there...what would you do over the vanity? Thank you so much....See Moreshould you add lighting to a 36” led lighted bathroom vanity mirror
Comments (1)Lighted mirrors are not sufficient lighting for a room, or even for the area around the vanity. Add additional lighting....See MoreW C
