Hanging Wooden Mirrors

Opt for a pair of wooden mirrors and hang them over your sink with an iron pulley and jute rope.

Ridged Ceiling

Let your bathroom exude a country vibe with a ridged ceiling, brick walls and wood flooring. But don’t stop there! Go for a white soaking tub to make the space stand out.

Industrial Treasures

Add an array of vintage accents to your bathroom’s design. Balance the design scheme with silver fixtures, like lighting and mirrors, to give the all-white space a polished look.

5

Wood and Stone

You can’t go wrong with a combination of light and dark wood tones in a bathroom. Try a wood mirror in a dark finish, such as walnut, and a weathered oak cabinet for contrast. Using a stone sink only adds to the rustic appeal.
