Do you have a small bathroom with a sink that exposes the pipes and is less than desirable to look at? I do! Recently I decided I must do something about this eye sore, so I created a skirt to dress up the sink. The skirt serves two purposes. The first is to look cute. The second is to create an area for storage of my trash can and cleaning bucket.

This bathroom is located in my store front, so I didn’t focus as much time and energy into the quality and detail of it as I normally would, but it’s adorable none the less. Instead I made it very simple and really cheap. This is an easy project even if you don’t like to sew.

All you need is a piece of fabric and a glue gun; sewing machine optional. Hem the bottom and top of the fabric (for those of you who don’t sew use fabric glue) and then use hot glue to attach it to your sink. Then chose a coordinating trim and hot glue that along the top edge to give it a nice finished look. Instead of hot glue you could also use Velcro that is self adhesive. I actually used my sewing machine to ruffle the fabric to give it a full look, you could also do pleats or just a straight skit depending on your stlye.
