Kitchen Island Make-Over / Styling my own Painted Furniture



Yesterday I searched, purchased, sanded, stripped, painted, re-placed knobs, added fabric, photographed, transported, priced and staged this Kitchen Island. Can you tell I was excited about it? 


I can only hope this piece was used in a garage. Preferably a dimly lit one at that.

Here is how it looks today:


I added burlap to the front panels with a jute rope trim. 
The classy football knobs were replaced with glass ones.


The top was a labor of love.
 I used minwax's gray stain once I had all the orange removed.


This piece is full of great features. Room for bar stools, pegs for hanging pot holders, a towel bar and the obvious drawers and cabinet (the interior even has a shelf) for storage.


It would look great in my Kitchen, so someone better run to the flea to purchase it before I change my mind about selling it..  The metal bar stools are available too



And in the event that I don't keep it, I found some fun accessories that would be cute with it.. 
better known as:
 "styling my own painted furniture

I've limited my Kitchen finds to products on etsy this time-
because there's nothing better than supporting small business and creative artists!
