Installing a Pedestal Sink
Our sexy techno bathroom now has a sink. And it even works!
Stefan decided that he wanted to try his hand at plumbing and installed a pedestal sink in our downstairs bathroom, so we picked out a Kohler sink from Home Depot and a Pegasus faucet in brushed nickel.
Installing a sink seems like an easy task, but it’s pretty involved and can be difficult if you don’t follow the instructions exactly. The 1st bummer was that we realized that we had to knock a hole in the new drywall in order to install a 2×4 to attach the sink to. Something that you would have done before installing drywall, if you know what you are doing. Us, not so much…
All in all, it was a good learning experience and I think we did a great job!

Looks good. Now where to put all those storage items.
What kind of mirror are you going to do?

Robin – Thanks! If this internet thing doesnt pan out, Stefan and I are going to be handypeople.
Alicia – For storage we are going to get a nice big armoire (odd for a bathroom, I know, but there is the perfect spot for something like an armoire). This bathroom is a little bit oddly layout, since the layout has been changed so many times. You can see a video of the room here, to see what I mean. I want to put the storage cabinet/armoire straight ahead as you walk in.
I havn’t found a mirror I’ve like yet, but I would like to find something cool and interesting to match the funkiness of the bathroom.
