Chrysnbon bathroom sink


otterine

I used the same gloss ivory color from the bathtub on the sink and sprayed the brackets flat black. I painted the faucets with Testors Aluminum to tone down the shiny appearance and aged them with a wash of black acrylic. I still need to add an overflow outlet, paint the drain and add a little rusty water staining.

The pipe included with the kit would have made the sink too low, so I used a spare pipe I purchased from Sussex Crafts. I need to buy smaller washers but have put one I had on hand in for mockup purposes.

It also bothered the realist in me that there was no way for the water to get to the taps. So, I added two lines of aluminum tubing from the sink to the floor. I'll need really tiny washers for these. And, I plan to fashion little valve knobs so grandma can turn off the water in an emergency. :D

Amazing details.

I didn't plan to put any plastic components in the B&B when I started building it, until I saw the Chrysnbon bathroom set. Nothing else looks as realistic. I also like those oil lamp sconce lights.

you attention to detail amazes me. And duh, I had never thought about the fact that you actually need a pipe to the faucets to have running water!!
