You might look at this shelf and see a broken-down piece of old office furniture. And you would be right! That’s exactly what it is, which is why Shauna was able to snatch it up for a mere $7.50. And boy, was she excited to find it. Not because she had been searching for a busted up old shelf, but because she had been looking high and low for something of these exact proportions to serve as a bathroom vanity. Did you see that one coming? I didn’t! Check out the whole story on her blog Shauna Mailloux.

August 15, 2012 at 1:29 AMI LOVE IT!!! The color is wonderful. I see so many random pieces of junk online turned into something that looks like a piece of junk that got spray painted. This project really has amazing style. Job well done.

August 15, 2012 at 1:34 AMI’m a little lost on the castors too, isn’t it plumbed in? I suppose they are a cheap alternative to getting the height right? Still I like it 🙂

August 15, 2012 at 6:22 AMI love it. I love the castors because they add an element of surprise and make it seem portable. Great combo that adds interest, color and a splash of whimsy to what otherwise would just be a sink.

August 16, 2012 at 2:16 AMThanks for the sweet comments! About the casters – yes, they actually were my inexpensive solution to raise the cabinet up a few inches! Plus, I liked the industrial touch & I thought that it went well with the cabinet. (No worries though, the casters are locked & the cabinet is secured to the wall!) Thanks for the feature Lindsey!
