Figured what could be done about one of the bathrooms here (original and covered in about 10 layers of paint - ugh) ... except I could use some suggestions on the faucet choice.
Existing flooring is a white/gray marble effect ceramic tile ... that'll stay. Not only is it still in good shape, but the color scheme works out.
Already acquired and to be used ...
- 2x4's to build out the base cabinet framework, as there are walls on 3 sides, with a space measuring 63" wide. No budget for a cabinet, not to mention the odd plumbing layout means I'd have to gut at least half of a side, structurally affecting them.
- 15" Askerum 3-drawer sets, top drawer cut down to 3" to allow a lower height. Remaining pair of drawer fronts to be mounted together and used as a door.
- 15" tall doors of the same for the upper wall cabinet (pair of 30x15), with Nian undercabinet lighting minus the frosted glass so the light is actually usable.
- Gilla pulls.
- White marbled Numerar countertop.
- A pair of Italian sinks that is the exactly the same size and style as a Kohler Linia ... only without the Kohler price.
KOHLER: K-2217: Linia™ self-rimming lavatory: Sinks: Bathroom
This is all going done on a $250 budget. Seriously. The doors and countertop were clearance/AS-IS, the pulls actually have some substance/design and are only $3/pair, and the sinks were new-in-box pieces bought from the Salvation Army.
Basically, this means I have $120 left over for the faucets - not much, I know, but there's the challenge.
Only aspects would be that I like the simplicity of a single hole design, something with a longer reach is more preferable (no busting knuckles against the back), and I'm not against the use of kitchen faucets as long as it doesn't look "out of place".
Sooo .. any suggestions?
TIA!
