Many people love the idea of going to a home improvement store and picking out a shiny new bathroom vanity. Others, on the other hand, do not want a cookie cutter vanity. If this is how you feel, how about repurposing a piece of furniture to function as a bathroom vanity? This is a great way to make the space uniquely yours while saving money.
Whether it’s an antique or not, make sure you protect it from any water splashes that are bound to happen during hand washing. It would be a good idea to have a local glass cutter cut a piece of glass to fit the vanity top and then cut a rough hole in the center to accommodate the plumbing.
If you opt for a glass top, make sure the sink will hide the roughly cut hole.
It might be worth it to have a professional help you with this project, at least in the beginning. If extra support on the underside is needed, a pro will be able to help you out. This is a great way to save some money, but to also hold on to an old sentimental dresser. It will definitely be a conversation piece in your home.
