What do you think of this vanity table?

What do you think of this vanity table?

I am thinking of converting my huge double door closet in my bathroom into a vanity area to do my makeup.

Why they built such a huge closet in the BATHROOM is beyond me. We already have a linen closet and it's not like we are going to store clothes in there. Chat Icon

Anyway, I am thinking about wallpapering the small closet alcove, adding lighting, and putting something like this inside.

What do you think?

ETA: I would NOT do the coordinating mirror or stool. Just the table itself.

Looking at it again I would go with a cherry wood vanity table.

It's actually a mirror.

I guess I would have to hang some kind of chandelier. I might just do some kind of crystal wall sconces though.

Like these...

It's a little too femme-Liberace for me. Sorry!

LOL! That's why I am asking. I didn't know if it was "over the top"!

Sometimes I can't tell! Chat Icon

I think it is beautiful, however I think you will be cleaning it everyday with fingerprints and make-up powder

IMHO it's too much. A cherrywood piece would be classier.

After looking at it now. I do agree that a cherrywood would be much better.

I think its beautiful but probably would be a PITA to keep clean. Also i think your bathroom would need to be pretty upscale/flashy to pull it off.
Try to find something that is the same wood finish as your bathroom vanity.

The problem is, I have a double sink cherrywood vanity in there and the vanity / makeup table would go directly across from it.

I think it would be hard to find something that matches exactly... Maybe I will end up going with a weathered white wood...

I hate decorating.

Is this from JC Penney? I saw a sink vanity the same on that site.

It's not my style. If the bathroom is that large I would think about having a nice make-up counter made by a carpenter.

Re: What do you think of this vanity table?

NYPDS...I know your taste and it is TOTALLY you...I actually really like it!! With the mirror, stool, and all...love the sconces you picked out too..

But, it may be a little too girly to go in that bathroom plus, I agree that it might be a pain in the anus to clean..

Pretty to look at but not practical. Have you tried looking at Peter Andrews? They have really great pieces.

I would just get the table, then use a different stool for contrast.
