No pictures today, and just a quick post.
This past week, a Habitat Re-Store opened up 10 min from my house. I've seen some of my favorite bloggers, like Kristi at Addicted 2 Decorating score some great finds at one, but the only other one in Houston is in a very questionable section of town and not an easy drive from home or work, so it was on me 'one day' list. Well the Friday after Christmas, The Builder and I were at the DPS and there is a new one right across the street. It wasn't opened yet, but Saturday after I was coming home from lunch with a friend, I passed by it again, and it was open. I decided to just take a quick peak and see what it was all about.
Within 2 minutes, I found a granite vanity top that will be PERFECT for the vanity that The Builder is going to make to finish the upstairs bathroom. I've been pricing granite, but at $425, I wasn't please about the overall cost. And how much did I score my top and under mount sink?! $75!!
If you're not familiar with Habitat Re-Store, they resell usable building materials at significant discounts. It's a DIYer's scavenger hunt paradise and you never know what you might find. You definitely need to have some creative imagination. A truck to hall things off with helps too!
Photo's to come...
