In case you haven't made a decision on the vanity yet, if you went with the double sink vanity, you could push it to one side and fill the gap with little 4-5 inch shelves.
Vanity thoughts: In smaller bathrooms where you don't have much space for shelves or don't have a closet, I feel like double sinks might be a waste, more counter space is always a plus - it gives room to set down clothes when showering / getting ready in the morning, room to set makeup or other products / things you normally like to keep in reaching distance etc * signed someone who's had WAY too much experience with bathrooms lacking counter space lol
We did a old buffet cabinet in a house and cut a hole and put a drop in sink in it, then used boat varnish on the top to protect the wood. It had two long drawers in it too. Think outside the box!
On the bathroom vanity you can use spacer boards on each side and paint them the same color as your bathroom. You can attach the spacers with "L" brackets.
On the vanity, if the space is 52” and the standard cabinet is 48”, you could set the vanity to one side and add 4” shelves on the other which would be perfect for rolled up extra towels or extra rolls of TP. Just an idea.
Josh and Hayley, for me, following you with this adorable little gumball machine is more exciting than even your house flip ... I get excited from the second you put the key in.
@@empireofpeaches I know. I have a son who lives in the area. I'll have to send him $5 on Zelle and ask him (and his wife) to go and stuff their gumball machine.
As resellers we have to constantly learn and study. We are the earths keepers. Keeping things in circulation and out of landfills, is a win. People don’t like to search, WE DO! It is such a fun/hard/rewarding job! Thanks for showing ALL parts of it.
If I had matching tile I would complete the floor, leave an even gap on each side and hang some towel bars on each wall if it was a double sink. Use thicker base board to make the bottom gap look smaller. Having space between the counter and the walls is kind of a look right now anyway. Love to Mose!
If you get double sinks you have to pay for the plumbing for 2 sinks,faucets and so on.The blue one does cost more but plumbing cost may make it cheaper in the long run. Adding a wood moulding on the ends of the sink will fill in your space run it down the sides as well. No extra space.
Hi guys! It would take a little bit of elbow grease...but...speaking as a furniture flipper, & up-cycler, you could consider going to Goodwill, buying a 52 inch chest of drawers and convert it into a vanity. You guys are our favorites!! Good luck! :)
Haley, you hold your own with Josh all day long. Some days are just better than others and your smile could light up a dark night. We are baby resellers and happy in our little niche but we love to watch you guys
I've been looking at cabinets lately. You can use a bottom cabinet, then get spacer sections that match the cabinet, and cut one to fit on each side. You can then cut a separate vanity top the right length to fit, drop in a sink or two, and then you're good.
We use a kitchen cabinet store for our rentals. They can get vanities and have fillers that match. Some people dont realize most of the "custom" cabinet dealers have products for all budgets. They may not come in all the colors, but enough to pick from and it will fit perfect.
I love your excitement over the gum ball machine! As far as goodwill pricing, I just find myself being more selective in what I purchase and that is not a bad thing.
Hey guys! I flipped houses for over 10 years and I feel your pain. My recommendation is to get a linen tower to go beside a vanity. I did this in several homes and it looks fantastic and provides more storage. It also looks like a custom built-in. All you would have to do is move the electrical for the vanity light. Easy peazy
24:32 - Remember that the width of those vanities are at their widest (top granite/marble slab) the base is smaller so you'd have much larger gaps on each side then 0.6" or whatever it is.
Good thing you bought the Skittles before they take out the red ones. Some health issue with the red dye They did the same with the red M&Ms years ago. But then they brought them back. i love gum ball machines. I would love to have a single one.
make the walls and floor cleanable down the sides and put a towel rail each side for hand towels. As for the gap for the top maybe some type of beading or water strip.
Hey Josh, I’m not a GC or plumber but if you put in a double sink, I think you’re going to have to redo the plumbing because what is there now only services one sink. You’ll need two faucets and two drains. Maybe you can find some type of dresser or table in your thrifting ventures and put a vessel sink on it. Or have one of your woodworking viewers build you a simple vanity to fit the space. If you haven’t already, check out Southeastern Salvage on Garners Ferry, they might have something that works. Good luck!
I was thinking about the gap issue in your bathroom. What about putting wainscoting on the wall behind the sink, so that if there is a gap it won't matter because it will look pretty ? It doesn't cost a ton and looks nice. Also I wanted to mention that I really enjoy the things Haley( so sorry if I spelled it wrong) picks up to sell. I think you have a very good eye and the contribution you make should not be underestimated. You and Josh make a great team.
Think about getting a vintage low bureau for your vanity! Get your plumber or carpenter cut the top for your sink and rework the drawers to accommodate plumbing. It really looks custom and if you’re not crazy about the wood color then paint with chalk paint that you can just paint with no prep, no sanding, etc.! Check images/google for ideas. You guys are inspiring! Good luck.
I’m glad you got the skittles figured out, those will do well, I am just as excited about the gum ball machine as you two are, it is so silly, but so fun. If the little toys don’t sell well, get some more sugar in there.
I saw on Pinterest a guy cut the marble top (flush) smooth with the vanity / wood, and pust it to one side, either side you think woukd look best.. then he built a small custom cabinet that stuck out 2" and went up passed tbe sink 6" with a marble top, and used it for perfume / cologne.. it gave it a bold look and it looked really nice !! ❤ Great job on the house 🏡 👍
I’d investigate those tall thin spice rack type pull outs you get in fitted kitchens for your ‘gap’ as you could potentially store toiletries in the shelves If you can’t get one that is exactly the right size you can still buy the pull out mechanism and fashion something the right width But definitely the double sink As for covering the gap at the counter level I’d try and make it a feature - perhaps a little tiled ledge where you could put a vanity tray or small faux plants or toothbrush mug etc
When my best friend was remodeling her home on a shoe string budget, my husband and I helped with painting a vanity that was about 1 1/2 inches short on each side. It worked out great, looks awesome and it was the more affordable option. The area on each side gives it a great look. No problem with cleaning the small area on each side! Problem solved!
Hello Josh and Hailey! My husband and I recently renovated my parents home here in So. Cal. Like you are doing, we completely renovate every room in the house due to the fact that it is my inheritance. Our goal was to make the house appear as if Joanna Gaines entered the home and waved her magic wand, lol 😂. We succeeded and thank God above we received a bidding war within 4 days of listing it. We got $50,000.00 over asking price ($845,000.00). We purchased bathroom cabinets similar to the ones you are looking at in this video. To remedy the gaps, we installed an 8" high backsplash that surrounded each cabinet (the 2 corner connected wall areas). We then finished the edges of the tile backsplash with tile trim pieces that matched our white subway tile. The edge trimming pieces were placed the tops, bottoms and sides of the backsplash areas (2 bathrooms). This completely concealed the gaps and looked amazing. I personally love, love, love the navy blue cabinet, yet all three look awesome. Best of luck! 😃
I just wanted to add that the pipe connectors can be easily shifted/swiveled with the proper pieces added which could remedy the gap issue in addition to the tile trim. 😊
Let me say that I am not a carpenter but I have an idea for your vanity problem. If you could get the vanity top to fit, you could get any vanity bottom and put wood on both sides. Then you could pit a piece of trim to cover up the wood . If you feel industrious you could make your own cement counter top. I know that I am not industrious . Thank you for sharing your content. I look forward to your next adventure.
Y’all are awesome! We had a similar issue…we ended up buying a dresser the right size, using butcher block with major sealant and cut holes for bowl style sinks-cheaper than any other options we could find!
That wooden base double sink vanity is a super clean modern look - perfect and by far the best one there imho! Id get it and figure something out what to do with the extra space later. Just add matte black faucet hardware and you'll be GODLEN! 🤩 Clean sleek neutral looks are always best- stay away from colored cabinetry in rentals!
I have the suitcase that matches that Lily Bloom bag! I didn't know there were matching luggage pieces. Leave a large enough gap next to the vanity so it doesn't look like poor planning. It will be easier to clean that way too.
Just discovered you all. I love your videos. Your bins are an hr from me. I use to go there once a week but my husband is terminally ill so I have no clue when I’ll get back there.when I went I was there 3-4 hours. Before his illness took a turn for the worse we went to the Asheville Bins for 3 days. I love it cause they change out hourly. Following you on the flip house is fun too. Best wishes on your goal.
I "vote" for double vanity and narrow shelving I❤ all the story lines you have going House flip, booth (with gumball machine), Disney buyout. Fabulous!!
Look for a four inch rev-a -shelf pull out base cabinet. You just need to match the front panel to the vanity and there could be storage for Combs brushes hair dryers whatnot. Or you could bye a dresser with doors instead of drawers and cut it down to fit the space, that would be really cool.
Could you maybe do something like a pull out medicine holder, kind of like one of those pull out spice racks that you can find in kitchens? A 4 inch wide would be the perfect size. Just a thought.
i am LOLing at the lady in the background (top left) 1:18 She is just throwing things left and right lol ain’t no time being wasted hunting for good stuff. Love it!
Been using Harry’s since almost when they started. I signed up for their subscription every 3 months and got so many blades I had to stop. Now I only shave my neck and touch up my beard but I’m still using those extra blades over 5 years later! Definitely recommend
Buy 2 single vanities. Push each to the opposite walls and get a cabinet to go in-between. Run electric into the back and it can be used for hair dryer, electric razor ect.
Leave the gaps on both sides and put towels rods half way up on the walls there for the double vanity. The towels will fill the gaps but still be usable space
Don't be discouraged kids. You both are damn geniuses. That Dino snuggle is adorable. Hope it's still available also I'm going to order the razor for my almost blind 78yr old Dad. Thanks for deals for ppl struggling ❤
2 things…smaller vanity base and a tall linen cabinet next to it, or find a dresser or some other furniture type thing and add the sink. Just some ideas!
Regarding your vanity dilemma. Get a smaller one. Home Depot/ Floors and Decir sell 8 foot x 1" pieces of polished marbke/ granite . We used one for a threshold . Easy to cut. Put on sink top either side so it is dirt of like a backslash. The vertical sides on either side of walls can be filled in with solid vinyl cove molding (or painted wood)
The Awkward Yeti is an awesome comic strip! You guys would love it. That character is from a strip about a heart and a brain. The brain always wants to do the responsible thing while the heart wants to have fun and chase butterflies. It’s very much like me and my husband! 😂
I'd go with the smaller double sink vanity for budget purposes and maybe you could put long, thin, decorative baskets on each end to hide the gap, which could also be used to hold toiletries, etc.
Really like the bath redo - we did the same thing with a pink bathroom - loved how it turned out. For the vanity, you can get a smaller vanity and add a drawer or storage unit along side of it. You owe Milkshake a toy. Stay safe.
Regarding the vanity, how about getting a 36" or 42" single sink one, move it to one side of the opening and install a tower cabinet or shelf in between the vanity and wall to use for sheets, towels and toiletries.
Home Depot has really nice new bathroom vanities at a much better cost. Love idea other people have about shelves to fill the side gaps. Won't have to get such a wide vanity.
Just my opinion, I like the larger single sink with more counter space. .kids don’t need their own private sink. The extra few inches use that on one side of the wall and have a narrow shelf unit going up the wall, to hold small decor- bathroom items….maybe if you go navy. Paint shelf unit navy for a great added color for all white bathroom 😇🥰
I'd love to see a video from you when it comes to Antique booths and the process of getting one. What kind of experience you need as a reseller. What kind of things to buy. How to start one things like that. Purely for research
Very cool and enjoyable variety in this video. For the vanity, put the vanity against one wall, and build shelving for the other side, from the counter on up. Below the counter, put a filler strip in, set back an inch from the face of the vanity, and paint it to match the shelves.
You could always put in a piece of spacer trim and then trim the vanity top as well with marble as well. They. Sell pieces that go along the wall at home improvement stores.
Amazing what you find at thrift shops.The bins at the beginning we don't have any thing like that here love when you find great things ✌️ From Scotland
On the vanity.... You could go with a freestanding one( like a vintage dresser look with a sink in it) and it would be ok to have space on either side then.
We had a similar bathroom issue and bought a smaller vanity that didn't touch the walls with a glass top and just fixed the floor. It looks really good and was cheaper and easier than trying to find an exact fit or custom building. There's no rule that says the vanity must fit tight to the walls :)
It looks like you only have plumbing set up for a single sink, so if you go with a double sink vanity you will need to redo the plumbing which will be an added cost. I do agree that having the double sink will increase the value of that bathroom and your rental house, but get an estimate on what the additional plumbing costs will be (moving existing plumbing over and installing another set of hot/cold water and drainage pipes for second sink. Good Luck!
If it were my place I would get a smaller Vanity and a large stand up cabinet to go next to it. That way there would be no gap and you would have a place to put your towels and other bathroom type items in. Just make sure the total width of the vanity and cabinet fill the entire space. Just a thought! Love the videos and content!!
I love your place and how far it’s come! Maybe in between the the sink and toilet you could take the wall down that would definitely help it feel more roomy 🤷🏻♀️
My husband and I have flipped many homes and I'm a real estate broker in San Diego. I'm not a fan of double sinks in such a small vanity because there isn't much counter space and both of them probably won't be used at the same time. You would also have the additional expense of installing two faucets. The shelf idea is good except, the counter top will not span the space. What I've done in the past is purchase base cabinets to fit the space, then purchase a piece of quartz and have it cut to fit the space include a 4"-6" backsplash (it's a rental and without a backsplash your tenants may cause water damage to the walls) and finally a separate sink.
you can close the gaps with wood or build in narrow cabinets on either size like medicine cabinets from ceiling to vanity.. YES double sink!!! must have.. i would love to help you guys.. !!
Take and put a sink base unfinished from the kitchen section at lowes buy a counter top with a sink they are a bit taller for men also and stain the cabinets whatever color you want
Maybe you could add pull out tall skinny drawers on either side of the double vanity (like the kind in kitchens for spices.) People could put small toiletry items in there.
You only have plumbing for 1 sink. You can add for a second but that’s more money. Get fillers for the gaps. You can get paint to match for the fillers.Fillers are just pieces of wood to fill the gaps. Completely normal for cabinets.
I had an idea for the bathroom vanity. I would go with a 36" va nity and put a 12"x70" bathroom cabinet right next to the vanity. Everyone LOVES bathroom storage. Kids dont need their own sink its just 1 more sink to scrub toothpaste spit out of every day. Have you looked into getting a 52" vintage dresser and diy ing a vanity? That is super popular right now.
Hello to you both . Ton of great finds. I love that some of your GW has set prices still. The ones I go to here in St Louis don't anymore . Neither do they use bags .
Think about getting a smaller vanity and do a built in. It won't let me add the picture but its a built in linen cabinet. From floor to ceiling. We added this to ours
@HAIRY AND HALEY TORNADO I am not a contractor but i would go with the double sink and just fill in the little bit of empty space however you can professionally!
Assuming you want to fill up the full 52 inches and *don't* want the vanity pushed to one side....you could do a 36" vanity (centered ;) ) and two 8 inch freestanding linen cabinets (check wayfair) 36+8+8 = 52! math is fun!
25:39 I’m sure this will never be seen but I just wanted to throw out a suggestion..so what about finding a vanity that is 54 and you could just cut a inch off each end.. just mark your line and get a Masonary disk for a 4inch grinder and then if you do have “not the best edge” your caulk will cover it up
The silver lining on leaving without buying much it at least means you have the knowledge to not buy things that won't sell well. Still a really good use of your skillset Hayley!
Throughly enjoyed today’s video and hope that y’all let us tag along on more house shopping adventures! Would love to see more of the flip reno as well. I thought Haley did great at the bins! Don’t worry about the soap dish…you won’t notice it once the room is finished and decorated and I think finishing up each room before starting another is a great idea! I’m wondering if you added bead board to each side of the vanity opening if it would help with the gap 🤔
Hang narrow, fixed, shelves down the wall on one side of the sink ( left or right depending on fixtures) . From the top of the vanity down have shelves on rollers so the shelves can be pulled out as hidden storage.
In case you haven't made a decision on the vanity yet, if you went with the double sink vanity, you could push it to one side and fill the gap with little 4-5 inch shelves.
I agree. 2 sinks are always better than 1, especially if kids have to share!
I came to the comments to say the same thing - great minds 😉
A narrow shelf like that would be a great place to store Toilet paper or wash clothes.
You could paint the cabinet with 2 sinks if you don’t like the color 🙂
My thoughts exactly, make storage space
Vanity thoughts: In smaller bathrooms where you don't have much space for shelves or don't have a closet, I feel like double sinks might be a waste, more counter space is always a plus - it gives room to set down clothes when showering / getting ready in the morning, room to set makeup or other products / things you normally like to keep in reaching distance etc
* signed someone who's had WAY too much experience with bathrooms lacking counter space lol
Agree….most kids want their privacy so it would be kid at a time in the bathroom?
We did a old buffet cabinet in a house and cut a hole and put a drop in sink in it, then used boat varnish on the top to protect the wood. It had two long drawers in it too. Think outside the box!
On the bathroom vanity you can use spacer boards on each side and paint them the same color as your bathroom. You can attach the spacers with "L" brackets.

Dresser is longer and lower than a chest of drawers which is higher and more narrow.

The vanity is a great deal! I think you should go for it. The double sink is the great selling point. 👍🏽💯

Hey guys, The double sink vanity is your best option. And, the leveling concrete sounds logical. It's super easy and works great for that size space.
Find an old dresser even antique that is in good condition and turn it into a vanity for the bathroom. Will give it lots of personality!!
24:32 - Remember that the width of those vanities are at their widest (top granite/marble slab) the base is smaller so you'd have much larger gaps on each side then 0.6" or whatever it is.
Josh is like a proud parent with his gumball machine.
So confused by the gumball machine...6 years to break even worst roi in history
There’s more to life than money. It’s just fun :)

Use filler boards to cover the space, same as they do for kitchen cabinets.
But the vanity top is short, too.
I would definitely go with the double sink and make some small shelves on one side, perhaps to roll and display towels.
Hey, idea for the "gap". Mount a small shelf on one side and seal the bottom gap with a 2x4 and drywall.

2 things…smaller vanity base and a tall linen cabinet next to it, or find a dresser or some other furniture type thing and add the sink. Just some ideas!
Regarding your vanity dilemma. Get a smaller one. Home Depot/ Floors and Decir sell 8 foot x 1" pieces of polished marbke/ granite . We used one for a threshold . Easy to cut. Put on sink top either side so it is dirt of like a backslash. The vertical sides on either side of walls can be filled in with solid vinyl cove molding (or painted wood)
The Awkward Yeti is an awesome comic strip! You guys would love it. That character is from a strip about a heart and a brain. The brain always wants to do the responsible thing while the heart wants to have fun and chase butterflies. It’s very much like me and my husband! 😂
Stud work each side of the vanity and Shower match white tiles over the woodwork
I'd go with the smaller double sink vanity for budget purposes and maybe you could put long, thin, decorative baskets on each end to hide the gap, which could also be used to hold toiletries, etc.
Really like the bath redo - we did the same thing with a pink bathroom - loved how it turned out. For the vanity, you can get a smaller vanity and add a drawer or storage unit along side of it. You owe Milkshake a toy. Stay safe.
Regarding the vanity, how about getting a 36" or 42" single sink one, move it to one side of the opening and install a tower cabinet or shelf in between the vanity and wall to use for sheets, towels and toiletries.
Home Depot has really nice new bathroom vanities at a much better cost. Love idea other people have about shelves to fill the side gaps. Won't have to get such a wide vanity.
You can get the 48” stock vanity & fill in the two sides with an attractive piece of wood molding…easy peasy & if you buy a stock size, affordable!
Smaller vanity,off set it,add a small 2 1/2' closet or tall cabinet for towels toiletries etc
Just my opinion, I like the larger single sink with more counter space. .kids don’t need their own private sink. The extra few inches use that on one side of the wall and have a narrow shelf unit going up the wall, to hold small decor- bathroom items….maybe if you go navy. Paint shelf unit navy for a great added color for all white bathroom 😇🥰
Buy the double sink with the wood bottom and paint it the color you want it. Slap a extra piece of drywall in and you will have a almost perfect fit.
I have used old dressers and put the bowl sink on top and they look great!!!! Seal the top of dresser several times!
Look for a dresser and convert it into a vanity. We've done that at least twice before and they turned out great.
Oh my goodness that beautiful white knit throw! It reminds me of my grandmother. What a find.
While holding it up said “no holes” - had to laugh
@@SueKozikme too, lol 😂
I'd love to see a video from you when it comes to Antique booths and the process of getting one.
What kind of experience you need as a reseller.
What kind of things to buy.
How to start one things like that.
Purely for research
Very cool and enjoyable variety in this video.
For the vanity, put the vanity against one wall, and build shelving for the other side, from the counter on up. Below the counter, put a filler strip in, set back an inch from the face of the vanity, and paint it to match the shelves.
You could always put in a piece of spacer trim and then trim the vanity top as well with marble as well. They. Sell pieces that go along the wall at home improvement stores.
Amazing what you find at thrift shops.The bins at the beginning we don't have any thing like that here love when you find great things ✌️ From Scotland
On the vanity.... You could go with a freestanding one( like a vintage dresser look with a sink in it) and it would be ok to have space on either side then.
We had a similar bathroom issue and bought a smaller vanity that didn't touch the walls with a glass top and just fixed the floor. It looks really good and was cheaper and easier than trying to find an exact fit or custom building. There's no rule that says the vanity must fit tight to the walls :)
You can add some decorative crown moulding around the top of vanity to cover gap
I would use wall fillers, standard fare in cabinet installations. It’s a stripe of wood between the wall and vanity.
It looks like you only have plumbing set up for a single sink, so if you go with a double sink vanity you will need to redo the plumbing which will be an added cost. I do agree that having the double sink will increase the value of that bathroom and your rental house, but get an estimate on what the additional plumbing costs will be (moving existing plumbing over and installing another set of hot/cold water and drainage pipes for second sink. Good Luck!
If it were my place I would get a smaller Vanity and a large stand up cabinet to go next to it. That way there would be no gap and you would have a place to put your towels and other bathroom type items in. Just make sure the total width of the vanity and cabinet fill the entire space. Just a thought! Love the videos and content!!
Smaller vanity and a tall narrow storage cabinet next to it. Use for toilet paper hand towels washcloths.
Josh and Hayley! Thanks for taking us along! I appreciate you both so much! Stay safe stay great and keep up the good work!!!
I love your place and how far it’s come! Maybe in between the the sink and toilet you could take the wall down that would definitely help it feel more roomy 🤷🏻♀️
Embrace the gap! We have a 2 inch gap between our vanity and wall and it is the perfect place to store the scale:)
My husband and I have flipped many homes and I'm a real estate broker in San Diego. I'm not a fan of double sinks in such a small vanity because there isn't much counter space and both of them probably won't be used at the same time. You would also have the additional expense of installing two faucets. The shelf idea is good except, the counter top will not span the space. What I've done in the past is purchase base cabinets to fit the space, then purchase a piece of quartz and have it cut to fit the space include a 4"-6" backsplash (it's a rental and without a backsplash your tenants may cause water damage to the walls) and finally a separate sink.
Thank you both! It's so interesting how the house is turning out❤👏
you can close the gaps with wood or build in narrow cabinets on either size like medicine cabinets from ceiling to vanity.. YES double sink!!! must have..
i would love to help you guys.. !!
I am unbelievably excited and interested in the gum ball machine 🍬
Take and put a sink base unfinished from the kitchen section at lowes buy a counter top with a sink they are a bit taller for men also and stain the cabinets whatever color you want
Maybe you could add pull out tall skinny drawers on either side of the double vanity (like the kind in kitchens for spices.) People could put small toiletry items in there.
Get the double sink and make some small shelves or cubby holes for storing small items. Seems simple enough.
You only have plumbing for 1 sink. You can add for a second but that’s more money. Get fillers for the gaps. You can get paint to match for the fillers.Fillers are just pieces of wood to fill the gaps. Completely normal for cabinets.
I had an idea for the bathroom vanity. I would go with a 36" va nity and put a 12"x70" bathroom cabinet right next to the vanity. Everyone LOVES bathroom storage. Kids dont need their own sink its just 1 more sink to scrub toothpaste spit out of every day. Have you looked into getting a 52" vintage dresser and diy ing a vanity? That is super popular right now.
Hello to you both .
Ton of great finds.
I love that some of your GW has set prices still.
The ones I go to here in St Louis don't anymore . Neither do they use bags .
Think about getting a smaller vanity and do a built in. It won't let me add the picture but its a built in linen cabinet. From floor to ceiling. We added this to ours
@HAIRY AND HALEY TORNADO I am not a contractor but i would go with the double sink and just fill in the little bit of empty space however you can professionally!
Assuming you want to fill up the full 52 inches and *don't* want the vanity pushed to one side....you could do a 36" vanity (centered ;) ) and two 8 inch freestanding linen cabinets (check wayfair) 36+8+8 = 52! math is fun!
25:39 I’m sure this will never be seen but I just wanted to throw out a suggestion..so what about finding a vanity that is 54 and you could just cut a inch off each end.. just mark your line and get a Masonary disk for a 4inch grinder and then if you do have “not the best edge” your caulk will cover it up
Thanks for keeping me entertained guys! Keep up the good work!
The silver lining on leaving without buying much it at least means you have the knowledge to not buy things that won't sell well. Still a really good use of your skillset Hayley!
Throughly enjoyed today’s video and hope that y’all let us tag along on more house shopping adventures! Would love to see more of the flip reno as well. I thought Haley did great at the bins! Don’t worry about the soap dish…you won’t notice it once the room is finished and decorated and I think finishing up each room before starting another is a great idea! I’m wondering if you added bead board to each side of the vanity opening if it would help with the gap 🤔
Hang narrow, fixed, shelves down the wall on one side of the sink ( left or right depending on fixtures) . From the top of the vanity down have shelves on rollers so the shelves can be pulled out as hidden storage.
