One of the really fun parts about doing this remodel is "the hunt" to find unique antique items to include in the beach house. I am on a quest to find really cool vintage pieces (i.e. furniture, light fixtures or bath fixtures) for every room in the house.
I purchased my first item for the beach house today at a really cool store called TINI. It actually stands for "This is Not Ikea" and their website is http://www.thisisnotikea.com. I should probably mention that I was actually googling IKEA when their website appeared on my computer screen. I am guessing that is wht they came up with the name of their store ... haha.
I was intrigued by the items featured in the photo and followed the link. For those of you who enjoy flea market and antique shopping, you know that there are very few antique stores that have photos of every item in their store on their website. TINI is one of those exceptions, so I was able to shop their entire store online and find this absolutely cool bathroom sink! I called the store and they gave me measurements and also discounted the price by almost 50%. I went to TINI today and bought it. The sink will end up in the upstairs bathroom in a whitewashed bathroom vanity. (And that's only dust on the sink, it's in perfect condition!). And if you recall, the sink is one of the colors in my color palette.
I also bought the mirror in the picture below. It will either end up in the upstairs hallway or end up as a headboard for one of the king sized beds.

Did I mention this Sunday is the Rose Bowl Antique Swap Meet? I can't wait!
