Coming Up...

We are hard at work on our next project. Our kitchen is a decent size with a lot of dead space. There isn't a lot of counter space or cabinet space but a lot of floor. Like I have said before we would like to redo the kitchen from floor to ceiling but in the meantime we are gonna keep tweaking until we can rip the whole thing out. We have decided to make a small rustic style kitchen island to go right in the middle of the room. We got the design from anawhite.com again and altered the plans to fit our specifications. 

In progress kitchen picture. 

The design is very basic and we are still deciding on a color for the actual island. We are going to stain the top planks to match our farmhouse table and then paint the bottom a color. The kitchen has A LOT of white and also avocado green walls so we need to work around those. We are thinking of a charcoal grey color possibly. What do you think? 

As you can see we are still in the early stages. It will have two 2x12 planks on top and then the two bottom shelves will have horizontal planks sitting an inch apart. Can't wait for it to be finished and I can get to styling that baby. Any input about color is much appreciated...as I am the most indecisive person around.

  1. I vote for a color like your dining table. The cabinets and wall color is so bright I think it would balance the room out.

    I think something like this is cute:
