I was able to make the best transforming a piece of the basement in our old house into a studio/workshop for myself, but I worked with what we had done to finish the place when our daughter was a toddler. This time, I'm deciding everything....from where I want a closet, to electrical placement, to each of the components of the finished bath, the walls, floor, etc. It's a kick-in-the-pants!, and so far, it's coming together just as I imagined.
One of the projects that I wanted to have a hand in (literally) was the bathroom. First off, I'm thrilled that we decided to invest in a bathroom, so both my clients and I can take advantage of it as needed. We didn't take the time to do this in our old basement, so this is going to be a real treat!
I've always loved the look of vessel sinks and I knew that's what I wanted down there. I also wanted the sink to sit on top of a special piece of furniture. I looked at buying something at one of the local box furniture shops, but decided to buy an old dresser at the ARC store ($15) and refinish it myself.

I found a really beautiful turquoise spray paint color and took to painting the dresser after a light sanding. After I laid the initial color down, I painted on some black, tan, and grey to "age" the piece.

I am absolutely thrilled with the final outcome! The white vessel sink I purchased is just perfect for this piece. We're probably 2 ½ weeks out before the bathroom will be finished and we can put this little beauty in place....but I just had to share!
