If a bathroom remodeling plan is on your project list this year then changing the bathroom sink can be a very economical way to give a whole new fresh look to the room.
A sink installed into a countertop above a storage unit, a freestanding unit and a sink attached to a wall are a few of the many ways that this piece of furniture can be installed into the bathroom. Many people think the classic white porcelain sink is a little bland. However, they are extremely versatile, come in many shapes and can be bought to fit in many different shapes of rooms.
Porcelain sinks have moved on over the years and can now be bought in many colors from from pink to marine blue. With these colors you can create any style and completely change the whole feel of the bathroom. Prior to firing these sinks can be painted with many different motifs to complement your scheme. After painting the sinks are fired to make the designs durable and permanent.
At the more expensive end of the range there are many different exotic styles of sink ranging from mahogany to expensive teak. The wood used is often aged then treated with various waxes, polishes and oil to produce a very glossy and durable sink. These types do take a little care though and they must be dried after each use, with a towel and also be treated annually with a new application of wax polish.
Glass is another material that is becoming increasingly popular in its use to make sinks. It is a very adaptable and moldable material that can be formed into many different exotic designs. It can also come in a variety of colors, sizes and textures. One spectacular design I recently saw was a copper sink sandwiched between two layers of glass. The designs can only really be limited by the imagination.
Sinks are now being made from many other materials such as brass, steel and stainless steel. One of my favorites is stone which can give a very earthy organic look to a bathroom. Luckily you only need the sink to be made out of these materials otherwise it would become prohibitively expensive.
Confronted by a lot of different bathroom sink styles and designs, it is easy to get quite carried away and chose a design that might prove to be too expensive or impractical. So it is a good idea to have some sense of your budget prior to choosing which style of bathroom sink is affordable and practical for your requirements.
