Kitchen Island




We moved to this house about 4 years ago.. I have always wanted a kitchen island.. but never had the money to get what i wanted... a big butcher block top with storage in the bottom!     Well... at a yard sale a few weeks ago... I scored BIG time!     I saw this ugly cabinet in terrible shape but with great structure! I bargained down to $75!!!      after a bit of sanding, painting, distressing, new handles, and mineral oil to the top... here is the almost finished product! (minus towel bars on the side... ordered but havent arrived)    I think its perfect!
