I still haven't decided what to do with my downstairs bathroom. I started browsing Amazon for towel racks, light fixtures, medicine cabinets, and mirrors. I don't know if I'll end up using some combination of what I already have or replace it all. The medicine cabinet is set into the wall, so that may prove problematic.
Anyhow. I was poking around trying to get some ideas and it struck me that these rounded items might help with the small space.
I like the chrome look because it's modern. I can't stand the wood that seems to overpower the room right now. That's possibly because it's not the color of wood I would have chosen. It's a medium color and just bugs me. I also really like the black metal and dark brown metal look, but I'm afraid with it being such a small room that wouldn't work very well.
The thing that is starting to concern me right now is that if I go with this chrome look things will be too matchy and it may start to look institutional. I don't want it to be a cold, unwelcoming bathroom. I'm also concerned about ordering these items on Amazon because if they don't match well I'll have to send them back. Having said that, I really hate home improvement stores. I really just don't want to go to Home Depot or Lowes and try to find something I like there. Now if we had an Ikea I'd be all about it! Maybe I need to save up for a little while and make a bathroom decorating trip to Atlanta (the nearest Ikea). Much as I love the place, that idea doesn't really appeal to me, either.
So I'm still thinking and mulling over ideas. I think I could be on to something with the rounded look and the small space. I guess that's a little progress.
