Very nice. I was looking at converted vanities available at another online store - Canton antique vanities maybe? They were also very nice and similarly priced, but once I factored in the high shipping costs, I realized I did much better buying the vanity, faucet, and sink myself. My total cost will be around $800 and that's with a beautiful hammered copper sink and paying extra for shipping on the vanity.

Of course, I'll have to sweet talk DH into handling the labor involved!

We made ours. We just bought an old dresser, cut a hole and installed the sink. I bought it at a vintage shop for maybe $200 or $250.
My husband had to cut some of the drawers apart to get the plumbing to fit in, so the inside is not perfect, but I love the look.
This just shows a bit of it.

That is beautiful! Were the flowers painted on it when you bought it and can you show us more of it?

We made our own too. I bought this buffet piece at a antique store for around 500.00 and then we took off the wood top and did some woodwork to fit the sink and bought the granite and voila!

aktillery - that is gorgeous! Just gorgeous! Wow! I need to replace a pedistal sink in our powderroom and now I think I may look for a small chest to use instead of a traditional vanity.

Aktillery, that looks just like the sideboard I found for a friend's dining room at an antique store nearby. You got a great deal. I think she paid almost $800 for the one I found. I love these old pieces reworked.

Mine was maybe 1940s Duncan Phyfe style. We found a $50 granite remnant and the same contractor who was doing granite for our kitchen did the shaping and setting the sink for ours. It went in our hall bath and I love it!

No_green_thumb and Aktillery -- gorgeous, both!

I made mine in my last house too. I looked all over antique stores to find one just the right size to fit in the space, then polyurethaned the top with a lot of coats. I loved it!

I agree -- make it yourself. here's what I would do. Scour second-hand shops to find a dresser or sideboard you like (you can find antique pieces for less expensive than in "antique" shops). Decide where on the top you want the sink to go. Cut away any interior shelves or drawers that would prevent the sink and plumbing from fitting. You could just remove some drawer boxes and refasten the drawer fronts to the face of the dresser. Buy your sink. Then call the plumber. They are used to cutting out counters to fit a sink and this is no different. Should save you lots of money and is a fairly simple DIY project.

Good luck!
