I love the sink "idea", but I personally object to having one. I have a couple of old treadles and a coffee table made from an old base. Let me tell you, the metal frames attract dust and are hard to keep clean in my farm home. (We live on a gravel road, and I like to have my windows open.) I see all that open space under the foot pedal as a hard place to get clean especially as I get older. Oh did I say I hate to clean! It really is a cute idea.
