Well, its done! We love it!!!! Perhaps we’ll find a neat marble top for it someday, but for now we are quite happy with our new addition to the kitchen. This photo has a strange angle to it because I was sitting on the counter trying to get a full view of the island.
Here are some other views, some showing the detail that this cabinet has – detail that I think is enhanced by the paint job. It really got lost in its former dark, dark version.
I love the way the beadboard turned out – very cozy cottage, I think. I’ve already rearranged my cupboards and am so grateful for more storage space. Hope you like it.
Have a great weekend!

Wow! I really love it!!! I sure wish my kitchen was big enough for one!!! I love the bead board on the back, it really finishes it off nicely!

Found you on the comment page of Cindy/romantic home.
Your new island is fantastic, love all the details to it! The glass knobs that are on the new island would also look great on your existing cabinets, tieing the look in even more. Great job!

I am in love with your kitchen island… your porch… your home… and your doggums!! Living in New England, I’m also feeling atumn arriving in full force. And not being a cold weather person, I’m having a hard time letting go of summer. If I could learn to do that, I would probably enjoy the fall more… Again – GREAT kitchen island!!!…Donna
