Bathroom Hardware - Quick and Easy Tips

Modern bathroom hardware often comes in simple geometric shapes without frills or extra frill. Popular hardware colors are shiny chrome, satin nickel, and brushed nickel. Since contemporary style hardware isn't very intricate, it's easy to combine complementary colors and finishes with relative ease. There are many lovely hardware collections for the bathroom and kitchen that don't break the bank. They are reasonably priced and work well with most decorating schemes.

When shopping for bathroom hardware, it's a good idea to purchase matching knobs and pulls. This enables you to coordinate both hardware and cabinetry for a unified look. It's also a nice touch to incorporate the same style of pulls on drawers and cupboards in your kitchen as you do for your bathroom. Not only does it bring together complementary looks, but pulls can make small storage spaces appear larger.

Towel bars, towel cabinets, and soap dishes all make great focal points in a bathroom and can be quite decorative with coordinating pulls. For instance, you could pair a luxurious towel bar with satin nickel knobs and pulls, or choose a plain, metallic towel rack with coordinating satin nickel cabinet pulls. If you like hanging baskets and other accessories from the ceiling or wall, you can use knobs and pulls crafted from metal, wood, or plastic. In addition to being visually appealing, these hardware items can save space by allowing you to free up floor space for other storage options.
