Well, B and my Dad did an awesome job, and I'm actually happier with the look of the faucet on the vanity than I had thought. Even though we're happy with it, I wanted to do a little bit more to make this more modern looking vanity, appear more traditional.
Though the GODMORGON comes with it's own hardware, we opted to purchase our own to switch up the look of the vanity a little more. With a trusty Home Depot gift card in hand, Halle and I went shopping and found some brushed nickle scoop pulls to add to the front of the vanity drawers.
Yes, we do plan on filling those smaller holes meant for the supplied hardware...
Two nights ago, B and I got to work getting them on there. The drawers are 40" wide, so after B did some measuring and tried out a couple different placements we decided to place the handles at 10" off centre. This puts them a quarter of the way in, which is perfect based on the size of our smaller scoops.
And yes, we did mix metals by adding by the brushed nickel handles onto our drawers, but I like it. It's not like we veered that far off of the faucet and shower set, and I think it looks great.
Hopefully we'll have a bit more motivation to finish up this bathroom now. What's left?
- Window trim
- Paint touch ups
- Mirror
- Towel bar and toilet roll holder
- Finish Shelving
- Transition in the doorway
- Shower Curtain
- Caulk around the tub
It's all those little finishing touches that I think everyone hates doing... am I right?
Looks great! I can't wait to see the rest :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat decision going with your own hardware! There are no rules, right? ;) And I hear you on the final details - by that point, you're just happy to have a useable space (and running water) again. Caulking can surely wait!
ReplyDeletePesky details are the worst! That's usually the point when I start hoping that someone will magically show up while I'm not home and finish it all for me (so far, no luck). Looks great so far!
ReplyDeleteLooking good Kerry!
ReplyDeleteLove it Kerry - especially the use of your own hardware.

ReplyDeleteI love the combo! That bathroom is going to be sexy, for sure!
ReplyDeletereally really wonderful :) congrats!! can't wait to see the final touches.
ReplyDeleteIt's looking awesome! I really like that sink! It looks big and wide enough that water doesn't splash everywhere every time you wash your face. Ours does that and it drives me CRAZY!
ReplyDeletelooking beautiful!!
