Some girls dream of diamonds, and some dream of farmhouse sinks. This girl is not AT ALL the former, and very much the latter. I’ve been dreaming and aching for a farmhouse laundry room sink for what seems like for EVA! Like about 21 years to be exact. Good things however do truly come to those who wait.
DIY Farmhouse Laundry Room
There’s nothing pretty about laundry is there? It’s dirty, it’s overflowing, it’s neverending, and in our home it’s smack dab right in the middle of our main floor… a room that we and our guests have to walk right through to access any other area of the house. It simply can’t be avoided.
Don’t get me wrong — laundry on the main floor is a dream. I’m grateful that I don’t have to go up and down the stairs to try and stay on top of it. It’s always been right there in front of me… grimy, unceasing, relentless… and I must say conveniently located.
All good married folk disagree right? Well… we certainly do (keeps things interesting), and we most certainly did when deciding how to place my beloved farmhouse sink. My hubs Bryan wanted to simply build a base for it (and maybe put a mirror over top of it). I however had the most charming and perfectly chippy antique bakers (hosier) cupboard in my possession that I had my heart set on upcycling! Bry initially won the debate… and we were going with his plan… but then I couldn’t sleep… cuz all I could think about was my hosier upcycle idea! My idea was the better one right?! I’ll let you look at our after pics and decide for yourself.
