Well, today I pulled out the old vanity from the main bathroom. I would venture to say that it's the original from 1939. I had actually considered repainting the vanity (and had actually already begun the sanding!), but after further consideration, I just elected to go with a brand-new one. Sometimes it's best not to repurpose...but to move forward. This would be one of those times. I have to admit that I was a bit disappointed since I already had some man hours in the project of sanding and wood-filling, but I had to get over that. :) The inside was just a bit too dirty...it had been wet at one point, and no matter how much I wished to show before and after pictures of a repurposed vanity, this one just had to go. I just wish I had made that decision BEFORE I started working on it!

I won't lie, it was a pretty wasted day. I mean, I'm happy to have made the decision to get rid of this old behemoth, but I just didn't get too much accomplished today! Oh well, such is what happens during a remodel project sometimes.
