A new sink would be preposterously expensive and this one can be polished out. I'm wondering if there is a similar trick for repairing Corain...Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11724807799695867204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-73577958784590426212011-03-19T14:40:20.912-07:002011-03-19T14:40:20.912-07:00Counter top looks fantastic!!

To match your faucet I'd install simple chrome knobs.Home Depot and Lowes have chrome knobs for around $2 each. It will give your bathroom a modern look and reflect the window light.And hang mirror over the toilet. You be amazed how much guys love that.It will also reflect your window light. If your bathroom has no view install faux wood blinds to give privacy.And remove the bar of soap, too granny and "unhygenic" looking,get pump type of soap. We did that to sell our 1969 house without spending too much $$. We did a walk through with our realtor and improved the small stuff and it worked! We sold our house in 2 weeks.I hope this helps you from an outsiders point of view.Ruthhttp://ruthlynnsworld.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-57712634546588389452011-03-18T23:54:34.253-07:002011-03-18T23:54:34.253-07:00I think you really are Superwoman!

They are particularly vivid (flaunting floozies in some cases) this year -- all the rain has loosed greens galore. And of course, the budding trees are blooming above them and the rain keeps them looking fresh and wet. Can't decide whether I love or hate all this moss and fresh leafy wets drips.<br /><br />Your house work (_not_ housework) sounds, as usual, magical !

I would not try this on a kitchen counter unless one was very careful about always using cutting boards...lol but for a bathroom counter it works a treat. I would use this particularly for a home I'm trying to sell as so often whomever buys it wants to gut out kitchens and bathrooms anyway.<br /><br />I'm Susan Sawatzky who took the bird class from you in Silverton in January.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-34835588376078002142011-03-18T18:59:31.631-07:002011-03-18T18:59:31.631-07:00That certainly does sound outrageous for that litt...That certainly does sound outrageous for that little counter top.
