Hello,
a little work but big in my heart!
It was the table of wood work from my grand father died a long time ago.
I receive it from my mother and I transformed for my bathroom. (recycling wood! ;-))
A little thought for my great grand father everytime!
Al the best,
Oncle Jules

That is great. I like those type of sinks anyway. That made it that much more awsome!

It seems that the older I get the more sentimental I get about such things. Hope this brings pleasant thoughts of your Grandfather. Thanks for sharing.

Seems as though we all get more sentimental as we age. Even us Macho men. Great project, and beautiful purpose.
