One of the fastest and easiest and least expensive ways to make an old bathroom look new is to change the bathroom sink. This change can give you the option of a new style, a new color or a new material. You would be surprised at how much difference a sink made of marble look Formica, in a shell shape in a soft beige, can make to the look of a bathroom. Luckily, these new materials, shapes and sizes are available in models that can be within anyone's price range.

Of course, the old standby white porcelain sink is still available, and even if you simply choose that, you will add a clean new look to the room.

Bathroom sinks can be free standing (pedestal) or on a counter top. If you want to get really fancy, you can mount a sink on a wall. Your choice is limited only by budget, existing plumbing options and the space in your bathroom.

Solid surface counter top sinks are great for the ease with which they can be installed. All built in is the sink and the surrounding counter top, which adds a lot of space to your bathroom and makes morning toilet chores easier.

There is an incredible array of colors, sizes, designs and finishes with these types of counter top sinks. And that is just the off the shelf selection. If you feel like paying additional for custom, the sky is the limit, with custom molded sinks and counter tops available, at a price, of course.

You can also opt for premoulded sinks that are set into the counter top. These are available at the large home improvement centers at a fraction of the cost of the custom made ones.

Color is another option that you can use to make major changes in your bathroom decor and design. It is unimaginable the amount of colors that are available, from plain white to deepest reds and even black. You can even have the sink painted or appliqued to a certain design, such as nautical, mermaid, nursery characters, fish, shells, etc. You can tie the color or design of the sink to exactly match the design of the bathroom.

On top of all of the choices in style, design and color, new materials are constantly being introduced to make the bathroom sink more interesting and dramatic. Stone bowls that resemble fountains, glass bowls that look like crystal works of art, metal sinks such as brass or stainless steel, all vie for the award for most interesting, dramatic and artistic bathroom sink.
