Vanity Inversion

I purchased this vanity a few weeks ago. We like the vanity. Nothing can be too easy, however. Notice how the drawers are on the left?

The inexpensive, pre-built vanity cabinets that one sees in major home improvement stores (translation: the only ones we're willing to budget for) all seem to have the drawers on the right. The pipes in our bathroom don't give a rat's ass about that. We were thus obliged to move all the hardware to make this cabinet a mirror image of its former self. We still barely had enough room:

Lindz and I also put vents in the toekick (yet another customization necessitated by the layout of this bathroom):

The grout, done by Lindz, is clearly visible.
