NOTE: this post was supposed to be published yesterday… but then I fell ill and it didn’t get finished. I’m super aware that today is supposed to be monthly pictures of the girls, but that’s just going to have to wait for tomorrow because I’m still not up to wrangling them into that chair and dancing around and talking in my best Elmo voice.
I’m here to give a little update on ‘Project Bathroom Vanity’ …try to contain your enthusiasm (the girls are napping).
Before we jump right into it, I would like to announce that I’ve grown to absolutely HATE the wall color in our bathroom. It’s taken excessive self-control not to slather paint all over the walls… but Nick has basically TAKEN OVER THE BATHROOM… and this pic doesn’t even has is 6’8” body in it. There’s no room for me to wield my paint roller just yet. So if you have it in your heart… turn a blind eye to the wall color.
We’ve successfully gotten new door/drawer fronts on and ready to prime/paint & add hardware!
Don’t mind this crusty grossness where the previous vanity was attached to the wall… I have BIG PLANS for the backsplash that will take care of it.
The far right cabinet actually pulls out and will be our laundry ‘drawer’. I’m going to sew a canvas bag that will fit in perfectly and attach with heavy duty snaps.
And because we decided to go with a vessel sink… we gained some more storage in the form of two top drawers (that would normally be ‘fake drawers’ since the sink would dip down behind them)! As you can see the drawer to the left is smaller than it appears because we had to save room for the plumbing of the faucet. I didn’t even know you could DO that! Cool right?

What was that? You were noticing our GORGEOUS Vessel Sink?
When National Builder Supply contacted us and wanted in on our bathroom project… we jumped at the opportunity when we saw this incredible Delocav vessel sink that went right along with our vision for the bathroom! And I love that it’s HUGE enough that the girls will be able to stand side-by-side and brush their teeth (once we get step stools in there).

I would say Hunter Builder Ceiling Fan With Light. Because I live in South Texas, 2 of our fans broke and it’s about to be summer. LOL.
I’m already a fan on FB. I liked NBS as well. It’s totally awesome that they gave you that sink!
I would so get a pair of wall sconces for the bedroom. I’d replace the bedside lamps with them.
This looks amazing! I am always so impressed with what you two do yourselves…and make look actually do-able! By the way, I received my Iowa plaque over a week ago and we have it hanging in our family room. OBSESSED! You did a beautiful job, and I wrote a blog post mentioning your etsy shop.

Okay this is a weird “want” that I doubt anyone else will post, but I’d love any of the Toto one piece toilets! Ha! We have a toilet it our guest bath that has been giving us issues since we moved in almost 2 yrs ago…it’d be so nice to just rip it out and replace it with a fancy new one! Thanks for the giveaway!

Re National Builder Supply: there were lots of beautiful things on the site, and this is one that caught my eye.
Decolav 1139T-TCR
I would adore having Decolav 1129T-TNG oval countertop glass bowl/sink. Inspired by DIY sites like yours, I found the perfect nightstand I am converting to a bathroom sink. This would complete the look! 🙂
I liked you already and just added NBS.

And I liked both you and National builder on Facebook.

Our bathroom is in desperate need of refinishing & we need everything! But I would probably have to go with the TOTO carusoe toilet.
Oh my gosh I would love an outdoor ceiling fan. My patio is calling for one and if I could cut my price in half it would give me the incentive to crawl in my attic and do the electrical work! I don’t know which one I would pick yet, but that is on my list for sure:)
I’d totally be all over a mirror for our new house. Specifically, this one: http://www.nationalbuildersupply.com/p/kichler-78086-decorative-accessory.html
Crossing my fingers!
I’m remodeling by master bathroom, so it would be a sink, not sure which 🙂
If I won, I’d give my friend the gift card–they are building a new house and I know she would LOVE to do something a little bit more extravagant than they’re budgeting for. –Heidi
We need a new master bath, so naturally I would use the gift on a new kitchen sink! The projects never end.
I liked both pages! Fingers crosses!
I would love to spend the money on some new outdoor lighting!
I want a Toto toilet. Maybe the one piece elongated Drake? Please may I have it for $100?

I want to put a new countertop on our guest bath vanity base. Then put in a sink and I would choose Decolav Above Counter Oval Bathroom Sink In
I also liked NBS on Facebook!
I really need to get my property some lighting so that we aren’t a target for thieves, so I’d probably get the Access Lighting 20363-BRZ wallwasher. Safety first!
Ok, so it’s a mouth full and it isn’t very practical but I am in love with : Decolav Gabrielle Vanity With Glass Top And Integrated Lavatory
I liked both on Facebook!
If money is no object I want the Toto Nexus Cast Iron oval shaped soaking tub…looks amazing!

LOVE the vessel sink. A little jealous. 🙂 Can’t wait to see it. Me thinks the playdate needs to be at your place next week. 🙂
I love how your bathroom is turning out. The countertop is just beautiful and the sink is really, really fun! I looked at NBS website and saw lots of stuff that I would like but I think I would put it towards a light fixture over my dining room table or a new kitchen sink! Both are very exciting! And you were both liked on FB! Have a great weekend!
