Enter: the sink

With a new bathtub and a glorious new toilet (eco flush! very exciting, as you can imagine and a popular topic for dinner conversation recently), the only thing our little bathroom needed (besides tiles and floor) was a sink.

As you can see, the space between bathtub and toilet is rather smaller than average....in fact, it turned out to be rather smaller than the usual 'compact' sink and cupboard. So, we had to get inventive. Once again, our beloved Recycling Centre came to the rescue with a darling little cupboard (for only £5). Here, the kittens are modeling its usefulness as a fortress.

However, it needed a wee bit of height. So, we attached some lovely little legs....which started life as the ends to curtain poles.

We fashioned a top out of a few left over boards and Paul-the-contractor plumbed and installed it.

And we shortened the drawer so it would still be usable.

And here, complete with the narrowest sink we could find, is the completed project.
