Why Does Life Get in the Way of My House Projects?

I have been planning this house project for a long time, so I was VERY excited to start on it.

DIY Custom Bathroom Sink Cabinet

I’ve posted before about bathrooms and pointed out some high-end vanities, briefly mentioning that you can make your own bathroom sink cabinets, so I thought it was time to delve into it further. I wanted to show you what I did for our downstairs powder room that was inexpensive, yet custom, and can be done in any style to suit your taste and budget. Almost any dresser, table or chest can ...
