Vintage Furniture
Need more storage? Grab yourself a vintage piece and refurbish it. Think: old cabinets from other rooms in the house like living rooms, kitchens, and bedrooms. Your towels will thank you for such a pretty place to sit.

Exposed Exteriors
Got a log cabin style home? Bring the outside in by highlighting the details instead of covering them up. The same goes for exposed brick and stonework that already exists.
Coordinated Trim

Distressed Wood
