Rustic Bathroom Vanities For A Ca
sual Country Style Bathroom
To me, the bathroom is the ultimate place to unwind - somewhere casual, comfortable, and relaxing. That's why I
like a bathroom design that's a little more rustic rather than ultra sleek and modern. While there's definitely a place
for high design in a bathroom, I like mine to have a little more country than chic, starting with rustic bathroom
vanities. The rough finished wood and simple handcrafted design give any bathroom a warm, inviting look and
feel that's perfect for a more casual design.

Casual Elements Bathroom Vanity From Sagehill Designs

If modern bathroom design is all about smooth, unblemished lines, country style bathrooms are all about rugged
textures and natural variations in material and craftsmanship. Take this Casual Elements vanity from Sagehill
Designs. It has a supremely simple, rustic construction, with cross-style supports on the legs and a slightly aged,
naturally graying finish on the wood. Add to that the simple drawer pulls and you've got a rustic bathroom vanity
that feels more like a piece of furniture you'd find in a cozy cabin than something from a magazine spread.

Sierra 30 Inch Bathroom Vanity From Pegasus

Rugged craftsmanship is key to rustic bathroom vanities. Whether they're actually handmade or not, rustic
bathroom vanities that look hand crafted are the best for playing up a country or cabin style. This Sierra vanity
from Pegasus is made with a log-cabin style light pine finish, but the real rugged charm comes through in the
simple, peg-style construction, which adds leaps and bounds to the hand-made, little home on the prairie style
authenticity.

Lexington Sink Stand From Sierra Copper

The simpler you go, and the more rugged the wood, the more rustic your rustic bathroom vanities will be. This
Lexington Sink Stand from Sierra Copper is about as simple as they come. It's little more than a few heavily aged,

weathered boards made into a rough stand for a trough-style porcelain or copper sink. It's a very different kind of
minimalism than you'd find in modern design - not one that's stark and stunning, but a rugged minimalism that
hearkens back to a simpler time. If you want to build a bathroom that truly goes back to basics, rustic bathroom
vanities like this one are a great place to start.

Heartland Home Bathroom Vanity From Sagehill Designs

Handcrafted, rustic bathroom vanities don't necessarily have to be simple, though. This Heartland vanity is
covered in beautiful woodwork, from the gorgeous shaped legs to the scalloped edges. But the combination of
light wood, artisan style craftsmanship, and the little details - like the matching wood (rather than metal) door and
drawer pulls - give this vanity a homey look and feel that's a little more refined, but still right at home in a country
style bathroom.

Vigneron Bathroom Vanity From Herbeau

Wood is always the star of rustic bathroom vanities. While white vanities might work well in a cottage style
bathroom, country style bathrooms are all about natural, rugged simplicity, and that means showcasing your
materials au-naturale. This Vigneron vanity from Herbeau is a perfect example. While the construction is utterly,
classically simplistic, the entire piece is made of solid ash wood, and each board is sanded smooth to showcase
the gorgeous wood grain in each and every piece. You can even get this same vanity unfinished, to allow the
wood to weather and gray naturally over time for a truly one of a kind rustic bathroom vanity.

Rich Cinnamon Bathroom Vanity From Pegasus

Showcasing the natural grain of the wood and featuring warm, light, natural wood finishes is also an easy way to
immediately warm up your bathroom. While modern bathroom vanities often come in dark, stark, even industrial
colors and materials that can make your bathroom feel cold or sterile, rustic bathroom vanities made with the right
wood do exactly the opposite, making your bathroom feel comfortable and inviting. This Rich Cinnamon vanity is
another great example, as the warm, honeyed finish is perfect for catching the light and warming up your space.

Anna Bathroom Vanity From Sierra Copper

Finally, rustic bathroom vanities work in a wide variety of homes. For example, the Lexington vanity might be
better suited to a cabin style home and the Heartland vanity to an older farmhouse style building. This Anna vanity
is quite similar to many of the other vanities on this list, but the addition of a copper sink, counter, and copper
inlays give it a slightly more southwestern flair - perfect for an adobe home or Santa Fe style ranch. Rustic
bathroom vanities come in a whole range of styles everywhere in between as well, and many of the simpler ones
can change dramatically based on how you accessorize. That Lexington vanity, again, would look completely
different with a porcelain rather than a copper sink, and depending on how you decorate around it, the Rich
Cinnamon vanity would look pretty good in a spa style bathroom as well. So even if you don't want a traditionally
"rustic" bathroom, you can still use rustic bathroom vanities to add a little natural charm to your bathroom decor.
What are you looking for in a rustic bathroom vanity? Something more rugged for a cabin style home, or
something a little more refined for a country style bathroom? Let me know in the comments!
