Should the Bathroom Vanity Be Wider?
According to the renovation experts, bathroom
vanities should be a couple of inches wider than
the mirrors you install. In other words, the
width of bathroom mirrors, framed or frameless,
should be less than the bathroom vanities.
The reason why mirrors are taken less in width is
that they fit well on the top of the sink or the
vanity, deliver a pleasing appearance and also
offer sufficient space to install other bathroom
accessories.

Optimum Width of Bathroom Mirror
You would have gotten the idea that the bathroom
mirror should be less in width against the
vanity. However, how much less do you think the
width should be?
Well, having a 2 to 4 inch narrow mirror would
surely make a big difference. For instance, if
you have a bathroom vanity that is 24 inch wide,
a mirror of size 20 to 22 inch wide would surely
offer the best appearance.
