So I found this dresser a few years back at good will for $14.99 and I love turning dressers into sinks. I love the height, I love that it’s not so traditional, and I love, love all the storage.
This was the vanity in my bathroom. As you can see there was no counter space and even less storage. I was just 2 great big doors. with one shelf.
So I took the actual sink off the base cabinet and decided this was the perfect project for my vintage dresser.
I measured the bottom of the opening where the sink would drop into the dresser and marked the top of the dresser with chalk to make a template for my cuts.
I drilled holes in all four corners with a large bit big enough so I can get my cut started with my circular saw.
then I was able to slip the blade into the hole I had drilled. I cut out the opening for the sink to drop in.
Once I had cut out the opening, I dropped the sink in. I was able to adjust the plumbing I had to add a few pieces because the dresser was taller than the original vanity.I patched the drawer pull holes, I had taken the hardware off years ago and thrown it out. (kick myself moment) so I used antique glass knobs I had from another piece. I re-drilled for just a single knob.
Hope this project inspires you to do something fun in your home.
Have a great day and thanks for coming and looking at my DIY vanity!
