Farmhouse Apron Sinks - What Size ? Any Inexpensive Models??
Comments (23)Bump - I am in a world of hurry and sure could use some help. In one day last week, my dryer stopped working, the hot water heater quit and the painter who was hired to paint my cabinets, remove wallpaper and paint - sold his company and stopped returning my calls. The kitchen ceiling is already down and I have about 2 weeks to get some things done. Which may drive some decisions...... I started with only a small cosmetic update - and you may identify with me that as we've gotten into it, it's grown. Anyway, IF I can decide on a farmhouse sink and could get delivery in about 2 weeks, I would love to have one. I have been reading this website for a couple of yrs and I know about lead times, but I'm just hoping someone could answer one question at least today. If I have my laminate countertop cut for a 33 x 22" sink which I have now, can I swap it for another sink later? I will have to live with top mount - no other choice at this late date. Any guidance would be seriously appreciated. By the way - here's what happened last week... - the kitchen designer showed up and found me a painter inside of 20 minutes who came over an hour later and bid $600 less on the job than the first guy, the hot water heater had the vacuum hose knocked off from a kid standing a piece of wood next to it and falling over - so fixed in literally 1 minute and the heating Co didn't charge me for stopping by, and mysteriously, the dryer is still limping along which is good because I really don't have time for it right now. I felt like I had the Divine Hand handling it all because I didn't even freak with 4 different trucks in the driveway and total chaos....See More7' Apron on a Farmhouse Sink to Fit Into Stock Cabinet?

Comments (2)Look at bathroom sinks. They'll be smaller but also shorter. I used one in my bathroom. Its outside measurement is 6 inches. I can't find the link right now but if you end up needing it, I think I could. I had considered this one http://www.expressdecor.com/kraus-white-rectangular-ceramic-sink-kcv-121.html â¢Height: 5 inches Or look through the selection at Blue Bath. That's where I got my kitchen farm sink. Here is a link that might be useful: sink Height: 7 3/4...See MoreFarmhouse/Apron Front Sink Choices
Comments (50)FWIW I found a shot that gives a good idea of what a living patina sink looks like - it's virtually maintenance free. I did NOT wanted a hammered bottom on my sink because I thought it would be problematic for cleaning and in when looking at sinks, most of the hammered sinks were of poor quality and looked artificial and obnoxious. I did opt for a hammered front because I thought the bottom of my sink and the front would be exposed to different things and the hammered front would better disguise any discrepancy. Also the way in which Havens actually "hammers" the apron is very subtle and not the busy obnoxious look that most of them have. I do have a relatively inexpensive hammered copper sink in my guest bath because I am not concerned about maintenance in that room since it is used almost never :-). It is from Premiere Copper which is a great source for copper stuff. They supplied my copper hood as well as copper accent tiles. They also did a custom copper medallion - my designer sketched it out using an Art Nouveau statue of a crane that I have and we both love. I also have a copper ceiling. My old kitchen had the standard dropped plastic sheets covering fluorescent tubes and my new lighting now has lots of canned lights - under cabinet task lights. However, I have structural soffits so my designer used the higher space in the middle to create a dramatic coved copper tiled ceiling with uplighting. Here's a pretty good shot of the sink when it was installed. It pretty much still looks like this with some shiny patches that fairly quickly change.

Comments (8)click on the link In that other comment. it's for the Kohler at home depot. it's self rimming. (meaning, "requires only a simple rough cut, overlapping the cabinet face" ) Here's a 33" one: https://www.build.com/kohler-k-5826/s904362?uid=2276018&source=gg-gba-pla_2276018!c1707673104!a69500366874!dc!ng&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIq9jX6o7d6QIV0hx9Ch2DRgIlEAQYASABEgIXz_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds as for size, here are some others: K-5826-0 Whitehaven Self-Trimming 32-1/2" L x 21-9/16" W x 9-5/8" Under-Mount Single-Bowl Sink with Short Apron K-6426-0 Whitehaven 35.5" L x 21.56" W Double-Bowl Kitchen Sink with Short Apron K-3942-1-NA Vault Top-Mount Single-Bowl Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink with Shortened Apron-Front for 36"Cabinet...See MoreUser
