Can you tell me what is the sink/how can I buy one? thanks! »

robert kelly This is an antique sink from craigs list. They are frequently available, though the condition is usually not that great. New ones are available at strom plumbing aka sign of the crab. Other sizes and manufacturer's sell these type sinks. Check google images for "farm sinks". These sinks perform better than anything available nowdays. they are easy to clean and are super functional. My house I have an undermounted sink and I despise the drain board on the counter. I hate counter mounted faucets that always seem dirty on the edges. I hate typical counters at the backsplash/counter edge as it always gets moldy.

Kay Hedrick I found mine on Craig's list for just $100. The condition is okay but I am still having it restored - which isn't cheap, but still cheaper than purchasing an identical one new. The seller threw in the original faucet for free and it is in mint condition. In addition, I had to drive more than 100 miles to get the sink so when searching on Craig's list, don't just limit yourself to your immediate metropolitan area. It is well worth it and I can't wait to until mine is restored and installed! When searching on Craig's list I tried many things, but "vintage cast iron sink" worked best. Adding "drainboard" didn't really help much. When you do your search, be sure to click on "show images", that will save your a lot of time since the search will also bring up bathroom sinks and more modern cast iron sinks. Good luck!

What are your kitchen lights? - I have been looking for something like this. Are they vintage or new and what is the shade? thanks! »

Brilliant! Lighting & Design Getting a fixture with a similar look or a vintage feel can be done by visiting online retailers like Remains Lighting (http://www.remains.com/) or Rejuvenation (http://www.rejuvenation.com/catalog/categories/lighting/ceiling/pendants?&e%5Bpaging%5D%5Bper_page%5D=72).
Hard to tell in this photo if the pendants are cord hung or on stems, but both are available. Shade shape and material is also variable depending on your needs.
Good luck.

robert kelly Antique lights are hard to find. E-bay is terrible for antique lighting except in the industrial style.
Individual internet stores seem to be the best place to find these items.
These lights were found by Sally Ward who did the interiors.

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Michelle Fries, BeDe Design, LLC to 10 Ways to Get the Modern Cottage Look
Keep it humble. Wood ceilings and rafters are the perfect backdrop for the vintage sink and stove in this kitchen. It’s not uncommon to see open upper cabinets, yet in this home, the owners left the doors off a lower unit and topped it with wood. It feels like they picked it up along the way and slipped it into place.

This is actually almost exactly what our sink looks like, complete with the legs. I am not sure I like the "stand alone" option since I'm not wild about losing the storage underneath, but let's chat about our options.
