I have wanted a kitchen island since I remodeled this kitchen 4 years ago. It was supposed to be a flip house but It hasn't tuned out that way
I went to the lumber yard a few weeks ago and got me some melamine shelving and a few packages of beadboard.
Then I was off to Ikea and bought one of there butcher block counter tops. My daughters boyfriend Jay who is a master carpenter took my wood and my plans and came up with what I have below.
It has only been here for 10 minutes and it is already full of all the stuff I wanted to store in it. Now I will have oodles of counter space, sadly lacking in this kitchen. And somewhere to put all my gadgets so I will have an easier time using them.

| These stools I bought a few years ago from Pier 1 and they cost me a lot of money have been sitting in my garage rotting for 4 years..I have been dying to get them into this kitchen. The island is not finished yet..trying to decide whether to paint it the same colour as my backsplace a pale green or choose a new colour and repaint the backsplash? Anyway 2 posts in one day a record for me but I could not wait to show this I just LOVE it. |
The island looks great and the mixer is awesome! Dont return it this time ;)
ReplyDeleteI cant I gave away the box with the old mixer betty gave me to Jaclyn. so there would be no chance haha.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for an island. I have been dying to put an island in my kitchen (unfortunately not enough room). Yours is a perfect solution though. Aren't Kitchen Aid mixers the best? I used all of the giftcards we received for our wedding to buy one. I knew it was something I wanted, but would NEVER buy one for myself :).
