New Project, Bathroom Vanity

woodThis might not look like much, but soon it will be our new vanity.   I’ve decided that instead of buying the vanity to go in the powder room that we will be redoing shortly, I would instead build it from scratch.   There were a couple of reasons for this.  First off we were having a hard time finding a vanity that we liked, in the color that Jess wanted.    In addition, the ones that we did like were all to big for the tiny bathroom.   We probably could have found a nice one in the right color at the same store we purchased the cabinetry for our other bathroom.   However then we would ahve run into the price issue.  Not counting the countertop, the vanity was almost $1,000.  I did some estimating and decided that the wood and supplies if I built it myself would only cost about $300.  This means that I had $700 left over to buy new tools!  Well not quite, but I did buy a pocket screw kit, and a planer to help make the project.
