Jane's Minimalist Masterpiece

Jane began by stripping down the mass-market vanity, removing any unnecessary elements. She opted for a clean, white color palette and incorporated sleek, geometric lines. To add a touch of luxury, she replaced the hardware with brushed gold accents.

The result? A minimalist masterpiece that exudes elegance and simplicity. Jane's attention to detail and expert craftsmanship shine through in every aspect of the design.

Michael's Bohemian Oasis

Michael took a completely different approach, embracing bold colors and eclectic patterns. He painted the vanity in vibrant hues and added intricate hand-painted designs inspired by his travels. To enhance the bohemian vibe, he adorned the mirror with hanging plants and incorporated a mix of textures.

The end result? A bohemian oasis that transports you to far-off lands. Michael's unique artistic vision and attention to detail make this vanity a true statement piece.
