LED Vanity Lights

LED Vanity Lights

When designing or updating a bathroom, lighting is everything. LED (light emitting diode) bath lights offer an efficient and beautiful way to compliment your vanity and give your bathroom that wow factor. Like any other room, the bathroom benefits from layers of light such as ambient, task and accent lighting to ensure proper illumination for the tasks at hand and to create the perfect spa like atmosphere.  

The LED Advantage

Take advantage of the cost saving benefits from these very energy efficient LED lights for bathrooms that emit many thousands of hours of illumination, produce far less heat, allow for dimmable bulbs and over time will save you money.

Ideal Fixture Placement

*Over the Mirror:  This traditional location for an LED vanity light bar provides full light for hygiene and grooming tasks and is often the only option in a small powder room where vanity mirrors fill the entire wall. Look for a fixture that is roughly one-third the width of your mirror at a minimum to prevent a visually, unbalanced look.

*On Each Side of the Mirror:  Placing two LED light wall sconces one on each side is a great way to eliminate shadows.  For double vanities with two mirrors, use three or four total depending on the spacing of your vanity/vanities and size of the mirrors.  You will want to allow a few inches of space so that the paint or wall paper is visible between the mirror and the light. 

As you become more energy efficient and confident with new LED bathroom lighting, consider using an LED vanity light bar centered above the mirror with two wall sconces on each side. This combination offers a clear, bright, and flattering light without casting shadows and is the perfect design solution to highlight bathroom and powder room vanities.
