📖 The Hustle
Buy solid wood dressers for $20-50, cut a hole in the top for a vessel sink, and notch the drawers to fit around plumbing. Paint or stain the dresser, seal with waterproof polyurethane, and add a marble or quartz remnant top from a stone yard ($30-50). List as a 'reclaimed dresser-turned-vanity' for $400-800. Homeowners and Airbnb hosts love these unique bathroom statement pieces.
🚀 First Step
Visit a stone fabrication shop today and ask if they sell remnant pieces of marble or quartz for under $50, then find a solid wood dresser on FB Marketplace.
