The old bathroom sink had been developing a crack and it was very ugly anyway so we went to the Rebuilding Center in North Portland to find a new one. The Rebuilding Center takes donations from building demolitions and then cleans them up andre-sells them for a huge discount. This sort of recycling has been going on here in Portland for a long time but the other stores sell stuff at much higher prices. The Rebuilding Center is a Non-Profit Org.
So we found the perfect sink nice and deep and wide and very MODERN which is an aesthetic and philosophy Melinda and I appreciate. It looks like a Devo hat upside down and white. Part of the MODERN aesthetic is the economy of space which fits nicely with the M3house vision, not to mention it is a discarded object bought locally and the funds will go back into helping the community.
The new lights are used also from the Rebuilding Center, and the new cabinet. I had to replace the hardware on the cabinet and could only find new replacements. Painted the walls and cabinet with a "green" paint. I'll write about paint later.
