Hi,

it sounds like you are wondering the distance horizontally from the medicine cabinet to the electrical box the sconce will be mounted over? How large are the sconces and how wide is the total wall that the medicine cabinet is mounted on? If you have a photo of the sconce, that would be helpful in recommending a distance for you. In general the lightbulb of the sconce should be slightly above eye level of the average person using that mirror if that helps.

That would be pretty. Take some floor tileto the paint store and then bring home small samples, or since it probably won't take more than a quart, if you aren't crazy about your first choice repaint.

We renovated a bathroom where we were able to have a seperate large shower and keep the bath by incorporating a built in cupboard in a bedroom room adjacent to the bathroom. New Free standing storage in that room has resolved any issue with the loss of the built in.
