What do you do when the faucet doesn’t work?

The faucet in the hall bathroom finally died. It was really cool. You could turn that thing ‘round and ‘round and it would never turn off. After a week or so, it was becoming a problem, so we decided it was time for it to go. :} Mike and I decided that since we had to get new faucets, we might as well change out the countertop as well. The coating has been coming off the counter even before we moved in 4 years ago. Haha We looked at the countertops with the sink built in, but the way our vanity was set up, it would have been major moola because it would have to be custom made. Being custom made would also mean it would take longer to get completed because we would have to wait for it to be manufactured. We figured that wouldn’t work because the way Mikes’ schedule has been, we didn’t know how long he would be in town. We decided to buy a new countertop and just custom build it ourselves. Now realize when I say “we” I am really meaning Mike. Haha

Mike and Josh took off the sink/countertop in under 5 minutes. I was really impressed.

Then Mike had to custom fit the laminate countertop since it was too long and deep.

While Mike was working on the countertop, Emma and I were working on the sink. We actually attached the new faucet and hoses to the sink. Of course, Mike had to help us occasionally.

We also got some wonderful wood restoring stuff. (I know… I get technical every now and then. ) The difference is amazing. We went ahead and did all the cabinets in the bathroom.

We haven’t changed the lighting or mirror, but that is in the works. I will let you know when that happens. haha
