Sam's Sink

The first purchase that we made for our house was a bathroom sink. We couldn't pass up that big, bright, cheap sink sitting in the "as is" section of Ikea.  It was September 4th, 2009. I embarrassed Sam by making him pose for a picture...
In my defense, it was our very, very first purchase. 

Fast-forward six months: Bathrooms are framed out and we are beginning to plan for floors, tile and sinks. 
We needed to figure out how to utilize our already purchased sink.  After searching stores and shopping online, we could not find anything that would suit our sink and/or our budget.  I thought for a brief moment that we may had gotten ahead of ourselves that September afternoon... until Sam decided to set up shop in the garage and build a custom cabinet.

finished!
(Yes, we have snuggies stored in our garage)


These pictures really do not do the cabinet justice. Sam did a really amazing job! Plus, the sink + materials to build the cabinet came to under $100. We are going to use it in the back bedroom on the second floor. Our official first piece of furniture!
