Really Useful Bathroom Vanity...

by Colleen Klug

finally after many years of remodeling, the upstairs bath was first in line for some attention, bought the laundry tub that is usually for sale at Costco....then had my builder guy install it and make a couple of box cabinets. We used a 12"x24"x4" piece of maple I had hoarded for years, cut it in half lengthwise for the countertop. My daughter had the brilliant idea of resting the sink edges just above the wood...it made all the difference.. Builder guy cut a slot for a kick-toe heater and see it for yourself...
I LOVE the sink size, I LOVE the faucet, I LOVE everything about this....completely functional and a beauty on it's own merits...:)

By the way, the pocket door to the left is an 'up-cycled' half of a heavy French door from long ago and far away...the mirror came from free cycle....:). Bath also has a light fixture I painted with silver 'hammered' Rustoleum....my favorite fix up paint....

  @Colleen Klug Very nice, Colleen! I was interested in the cabinet tops because we purchased two extra base cabinets for our old farmhouse kitchen, and currently they are sitting with thin pieces of paneling on top, with pretty blue square cloth napkins to cover. They sit independently, one next to the stove, and one across the room, next to our chest-type freezer. I'm waiting for just the right thing to come along for my husband to make tops from. Great idea, and yours look really nice. What did he use for the small "backsplash" or trim around the left wall and back of cabinets? Thanks for sharing your picture.

  Hi Gladys, thank you. The backsplash is made from strips Of the marble flooring... It is also used on the surround of the bathtub ... It turned out really well and most everything is reclaimed From A previous life...
