If you’re getting started on a green bathroom remodel, don’t forget to select sustainable materials when it comes to items like your medicine cabinet and bathroom vanity. Bamboo is always a good choice, because it’s plentiful, grows quickly, and it can withstand the moist conditions common to bathrooms. The medicine cabinet above measures 27″X8″X36″, and it’s available at Decor 66. It includes 3 polished glass shelves.

Even if you’re not taking the plunge for a full green bathroom remodel, you can always green your smaller bathroom accessories such as your clothes hamper, and other storage items. The bamboo bathroom collection above includes a toilet brush, plunger, clothes hamper, candle holder, toilet paper holder, and tissue canister. It’s available at Plow and Hearth.

Here’s one more thing for your green bathroom remodel- a set of handmade bamboo bathroom accessories. The set includes a tabletop mirror, a bamboo tissue holder, 2 bamboo storage crates, and 2 miscellaneous storage containers with lids. I like the natural look of these bathroom accessories, and the hand-crafted lattice makes them even better. And, if you’re going with bamboo flooring for your new bathroom, these accessories will really help tie the whole look together. Made by Garnet Hill, there are also a matching bamboo laundry hamper and bamboo wastebasket for this set. Bamboo accessories are an excellent choice for bathrooms as bamboo is naturally able to withstand moisture absorption.

Doing a green bathroom remodel? Check out this bamboo bathroom vanity by Linea Aqua. I love the look of the bamboo cabinetry with chrome highlights, which would really tie in well with some chrome bathroom accessories like a soap dispenser and towel rack. Bamboo is considered a green building material because it is a plentiful and renewable natural resource. And, did you know bamboo cabinetry and furniture is more durable than other woods because is harder and can naturally withstand more moisture absorption? This bamboo bathroom cabinet is 34 inches tall and comes with the marble counter top, porcelain sink, and back splash shown in the photo. I think bamboo furniture as beautiful as this is proof that a green remodel can be just as fabulous, if not more fabulous, than a traditional bathroom remodel.
