9 Ways To Rock Blue Bathroom Cabinets
Creating a bathroom with unique style that will last the test of time is anything but easy. Want a good place to start? Begin with your bathroom cabinetry. It's also a great way to give your space a quick update, too. But with so many colors to choose from, how do you go about narrowing down your selection? Well if you ask us, blue is always a classic choice. And with a whole host of shades to choose from, there is literally something for everyone. Scroll on for nine blue bathroom cabinet ideas that will convince you to take the plunge.
1. Make your cabinets the focal point.
A pop of blue can add a sophisticated touch to a plain white bathroom, no extra effort required. For a quick update to your cabinetry, add a fresh coat of paint, change up the hardware, and keep the rest of the room neutral. Complete the look with a streamlined mirror and wall sconces from Schoolhouse Electric for an industrial touch à la Lindsey Brooke Design.

2. Opt for a patterned backdrop.
For a blue bathroom cabinet idea that wows, pick a statement wallpaper to act as the perfect backdrop. The dark blue cabinet in this design by Shannon Eddings complements the pops of color in the botanical pattern on the wall, creating a whimsical English country aesthetic.

Color adds a little bit of je ne sais quoi to the classic all-white look. Take this rich cobalt blue bathroom cabinet for example — paired with mixed metallic finishes, a marble countertop, and fresh white backdrop, the vanity area adds further depth and dimension to a contemporary design.
